Question

The new book Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is warmly welcomed by the children in China. It sells well across China. You can see and hear the advertisements about the book here and there.

Why is the book so attractive to children? After reading it, I was attracted by the magic world. I can not help asking: where is our own Harry Potter?

China has a long history and colorful culture. With a large market of teenagers, China published (出版) many popular books among children.

However, why are the present books not as good as those foreign ones?

Firstly, quite a number of children's books are focused on teaching, and they have little interest value. Reading them, children often have a feeling of being "educated". Certainly, they don't like them. Secondly, fewer children like the same stories, but most Chinese books are usually much the same. One knows the ending as early as in the beginning. Finally, the writers seldom think about children's needs. First-class Reading for children should be interesting, and written in their language.
