From the pair on his feet It is not difficult to speculate on the life situation of fifth-grade boy Jesse with the broken bottom and faded sneakers.
At home, the two older sisters are always overhearing the endless gossip and bickering at the dinner table, the mother is busy taking care of the little sister who is still a baby, and the father is struggling with the bills. Jesse's only fun is to hide in his bed after doing his chores and doodling with a flashlight under the covers.
On the school bus, the younger sister Mei Bao loudly announced the nickname Jesse gave to the composition teacher, and that eighth-grade grumpy sister robbed other people's breakfast and practiced throwing with Jesse as a target, not to mention the two in the class. A troublemaker who often takes pleasure in teasing and teasing him...
Jesse is the fastest runner in his class - and that's the only thing that can bring some comfort to his mediocre dreary life.
But even this little bit of glory didn't last long for Jesse.
The new girl, Leslie, actually stood on the starting line with the boys and reached the finish line before Jesse! What a surprise! What's even more depressing is that after the run, Leslie actually walked towards him with a smile and extended his hand. Jesse ignored her and walked away on her own, while Leslie tossed her short blond hair a little inexplicably.
Leslie, with short wheat blonde hair, likes to wear lace-up sneakers, always wears a T-shirt, tunic and slacks, and has chewing gum ready to share at all times. In addition to running extremely fast, his composition is first-class. Great. She never heard complaints or sarcasm, and even in the face of the eighth-grade sister who was guarding the toilet door and extorting money, Leslie praised her for her beautiful feet, and cleverly made up stories to try to create a good impression.
After school, Jesse learned that Leslie was the new neighbor next door to his house. After getting acquainted, they have many opportunities to go racing in the woods together. Jesse felt that running could make him unknowingly get rid of the ridicule at school and the depression at home, but Leslie went a step further, not only to forget the disappointment in reality, but even to build a wonderful imaginary world.
A swinging rope is the only way to the kingdom beyond,
The wind bell in the abandoned vehicle is the sound of the shackles of the dark devil imprisoned, the
wooden house is the castle, the dragonfly is the samurai,
Leslie can hear the wind when he raises his arms and shouts outside the wooden house,
standing on the dense canopy can have a bird's eye view of the winding stream And the surrounding beautiful territory
- Leslie immediately named it the kingdom of "Trebicia".
Trebisia, which has not been visited in a long time, has a lot of work to do, such as repairing the log cabin and castle. While happily busy, Jesse occasionally hears that Leslie's parents are novelists, and takes it for granted that it's no wonder Leslie's composition is so well written. So Leslie followed his train of thought and asked, "Then you must know a lot about hardware, because your dad works in a hardware store." "How do you get these hammer-sawed things? You know that for a girl Come on..." Leslie interrupted him: "How can you be so passionate about drawing as a boy?"
That's right, who you want to be, has nothing to do with other people around you, and It has nothing to do with the labels the outside world puts on you. Regardless of background, gender or gender, as long as your heart is open and you want to do it, why can't you take action?
Leslie had nothing to lose—she liked to run, so she was on the starting line; she was so confident in her speed that she rushed ahead. Her heart has always been joyful and free, and her imagination is always galloping.
Leslie's attitude towards life is like the way she dresses when she goes to church: wearing a demure dress, but still wearing high-top lace-up sneakers - her completely open heart can accommodate and adapt to all kinds of Occasions and environments, and ready to run and gallop at any time in action, never limited by a specific environment.
Regarding faith, Jesse and Mabel believe that they "have to believe" because "God curses the wicked who have no faith" and "sends them to hell"; while Leslie, with her usual curious and optimistic attitude, believes that God is not That way, she spread her arms and shouted happily in the wind: "He's busy running this beautiful world, how can he always send people to hell?"
Leslie's house doesn't have a TV because her dad says it kills people's brain cells. So Leslie's lifelike composition is actually completely imagined, and the mystery in it is similar to Jesse's ability to draw pictures he has never seen before - as long as there is an open, inclusive, non-existent There is nothing impossible for the restrained heart to write beautiful articles, draw smart paintings, and even create a magical world.
****************
Leslie's parents finally finished writing the novel and the family went to paint the walls together.
Compared to Jesse's mother simply saying hello to Leslie, the first time Leslie's mother saw Jesse, she first handed a wall brush: "I heard from Leslie that you have good painting skills, let Leslie say Let's see."
Leslie's dad: "The hand is steady, the artist's hand, isn't it?"
Hearing the positive energy of positivity, encouragement, and approval in every word of their words, Jesse was a little flattered.
In the sound of music, the Leslie father and daughter danced and danced, brushing while dancing. The puppy PT is also going around, holding a roller to help out.
When the setting sun slanted into the room through the floor-to-ceiling windows, everyone sat on the floor beside the painted wall and rested, quietly admiring the wonderful scene of the afterglow slanting on the wall, which was swaying like a flame.
This unforgettable visit to Leslie's house touched Jesse deeply. When he got home, he was still immersed in that state of happiness and happiness, and instead of being mute, he said aloud the Roosevelt he heard from Leslie's father to his father who wanted him to work. The famous saying: "The most valuable thing in the world is hard work and hard work!"
The music teacher Jesse has always admired called and invited him to visit the museum together. Passing by Leslie's house, Jesse hesitated, but still didn't call Leslie--he didn't expect it to be his later regret.
Leslie went to Trebisia alone, and while swinging across the creek, the rope that had been very strong suddenly snapped, and Leslie drowned in the creek...
It's unbelievable to hear that Jesse is back with a happy goodbye to the music teacher. He was more silent than ever, and even lost his mind in his favorite music class. He punched nasty troublemakers in composition class, lost his temper at Trebisia's entrance, and knocked down his little sister, Mabel, who wanted to go in with him. In fact, all these irritable and abnormal emotions stem from his guilt towards Leslie.
When he calmed down, he inadvertently saw the immature color painting on the head of Mabel's bed, depicting him defeating the Dark Lord, he suddenly woke up and remembered Leslie's words - as long as you are willing to open your mind, what is there Can't do it? Whether it is a boy or a girl, regardless of age, as long as the buds of imagination are initiated, they are eligible to enter Terabithia.
So Jesse learned from Leslie to pick up a ruler and ax to saw wood, and was determined to build a bridge for the beautiful Terabithia.
When Mabel stepped on the magical bridge of Terabithia with a vine crown on her head, a dreamy and beautiful new world unfolded before her eyes. This magical kingdom named by Leslie will continue to be passed down from now on...
Although Leslie Go, her happy thoughts, words and deeds that give people positive encouragement, open and active imaginative thinking are carefully collected by Jesse and resurrected - this magical kingdom named by Leslie will continue to be passed on from now on. Go down...
