(Childhood Notes) tells the story of my childhood, the story of the lives of children in Shanghai alleys, and the story of old Shanghai. It comes from the memories of my childhood, which mainly happened in the year from early 1965 to early 1966. Many of them are my own personal experiences, and the rest are stories of my childhood friends (there are eight main characters), classmates and their relatives. (Childhood Notes) (about 530,000 words) almost condenses the old childhood events in my memory. Through the description of various alley games and school classes, the alley and school life of that year are vividly reflected.
Purpose: To show the children's games and learning in the lanes of Shanghai in the 1960s, as well as the life in the lanes, neighborhood relations and city life at that time
