There are two very special stalks in Western children's stories, one is "there are monsters in the closet" unique to growth stories, and the other is "eating children's eyes". Compared with the Eastern education method of reciting the Three Character Classic and family training from childhood (Liao Zhai is a story told to adults), the imagination created by Western adults to scare children is enviable. The story of "Miss Pei" is still a variant of the "Alice" routine. Although the second half is a bit sloppy, please give me a dozen, so that I will not wake up in the dream of time circle.
