This book takes young readers on a journey through millennia to explore the mysteries of Chinese characters. Starting with the pictographic structure of the oracle bone script character for "grain" (禾), it reveals the humble posture of drooping ears of grain. Extending this to the connection between the character for "harmony" (和) in bronze inscriptions and the musical scales of chime bells, it unveils the original meaning of "harmony of sound." Through the form of the character for "union" (合) on Shang Dynasty pottery lid knobs, it helps readers understand the beauty of the culture of "harmony and unity."
