"The Peacock Flying out of the Kiwi" is a bedtime fairy tale woven with the softest childlike heart. It tells the story of a three-year-old boy, Xuan Xuan, who waits for his overtime mother to come home on a warm night.
It's dark and my mother hasn't come back yet. Xuanxuan sat in his "waiting mother's seat" and looked at the kiwi fruit cut by grandma - there were circles of small black dots on the green flesh, which looked like a peacock spreading its tail! "Peacock, can you fly? Can you fly to find your mother?" Holding the piece of kiwi fruit that she was reluctant to eat, Xuanxuan fell asleep as she waited.
In the dream, the kiwi really gave off a soft green light, and a beautiful peacock flew out! It carried Xuanxuan across the city lit by street lights, over tall buildings, and found her mother who was still working overtime. There was a photo of Xuanxuan on my mother's desk, and she was kissing it gently... The peacock knocked on the window with its tail. My mother turned around in surprise and saw the miracle of light outside the window.
This is a two-way fairy tale about waiting and rushing. In the world of children, longing can grow into wings, and love can make peacocks bloom from fruit. In the mother's world, all the fatigue is transformed into the gentlest magic at the moment when the child reaches out his little hand to touch his face.
The story uses simple language and repetitive rhymes that babies aged 0-3 can understand, capturing the most precious moments of imagination in early childhood - those ages who cannot distinguish between reality and fantasy, but who know best how to love with their whole heart. When the cross section of the kiwi fruit turns into a peacock tail, when waiting turns into a flying journey, we see not only innocence, but also the most authentic form of family love: when you miss me, I will travel through everything to come to you, even if it is only in a dream.
The idea: to show the two-way love and care between parents and children through children's childlike imagination, to interpret that "waiting" is also warm companionship, and to convey the healing power of family affection in innocent fantasy.
