They show the decade’s synchronicity, history and memory of the land. Huang began writing children literature and participated in children’s theatre performance in the 90’s. The writing styles of his work, Huang Chun-ming’s Fairy Tales, are not only suitable to the second graders in elementary schools, their rich life education contexts also encourages in-depth collaborative thinking and talks among the students.
