    Curator note

    "The Grassland Veterinarian"—A Rebirth of Idealism on the Grassland of Time. Opening "The Grassland Veterinarian," I felt as if I had traveled back to the 1960s, following Lin Xuejun, a modern veterinary graduate student, who unexpectedly traveled to an era of scarce veterinary knowledge and became a female educated youth. Her arrival brought about change to grassland animal husbandry and warmed the hearts of the grassland people. Her journey of growth, from hunger and cold to becoming a respected chief veterinarian, was full of hardship and joy, which I deeply empathized with. The initial anxiety and complaints about waiting for updates transformed into understanding after seeing how Lin Xuejun used knowledge to change the times. The author not only constructed a tight plot but also profoundly depicted that era and its characters. Lin Xuejun's image is the embodiment of idealism and reality; her growth is the growth of idealists in our hearts. Amuguleng's artistic talent was discovered by Lin Xuejun, adding color to grassland life and becoming her spiritual comfort. The brigade leader and his wife cared for her like parents, keeping her from feeling cold in her lonely struggle. The transformation of the grassland black wolf, Waller, from awkwardness to loyalty profoundly interprets the grassland spirit. Waller's affection for Lin Xuejun surpassed even the warmth of spring; this feeling was pure and profound. The Border Collie, Sugar Bean, the horse, and the moose—animal characters—were not only Lin Xuejun's companions but also witnesses to her ideals. Their presence made Lin Xuejun's grassland life more three-dimensional and vivid. Lin's father's letters, simply signed "Lin Yingzhi," revealed a sense of equality, a product of the ideological revolution and a profound reflection of the Chinese people's understanding of equality. Each letter served as a bond connecting Lin Xuejun and her family. "If conditions permit, please take a photo and send it with your reply to comfort your mother and me in our longing," Lin's father's words, simple yet profound, expressed his family's concern. Each time Lin's father wrote to her, the simple signature showed the equal relationship between father and daughter, which was deeply moving. The plot of *The Grassland Veterinarian* is tightly woven and dramatic, making the reader feel as if they are in that era, experiencing the hardships and joys of the grasslands, and the struggles of Lin Xuejun and the herders. The novel profoundly explores the themes of ideals and reality, and the relationship between giving and receiving. The author's unique writing style, vivid characters, and logical, surprising plot provide readers with a thrilling and suspenseful reading experience, and even a spiritual cleansing. In conclusion, *The Grassland Veterinarian* is a highly recommended novel that conveys positive values. It reminds us that we still have the opportunity to realize our dreams in real life. The author's work has given me hope and motivation in life, and has also made me re-examine my own path. I look forward to future works that will bring us more surprises and inspiration. *The Grassland Veterinarian* is more than just a book; it is a history, a dream, and a spirit. It tells us that even in the most difficult times, as long as we persevere in our ideals, we can achieve them. This book will forever be treasured in my heart and on my bookshelf.
