Picture book content:
The bright sun has been shining all day, and now it's getting late.
The skylight slowly changed from blue to pink, and then turned into a strange grayish purple. The sun gradually sank to the west and fell into the sunset glow of the four seasons.
The little boy watched the day disappear before his eyes.
He and his friends have been playing in the garden, and when they don't want to play, they lie on the grass and sleep.
In the afternoon, they also drank a glass of lemon juice under the pear tree.
Before going to bed at night, the little boy's father read him a story on the porch.
Now his mother comes to say good night to him.
"Why don't you see me during the day?" He asked his mother.
Mom replied: in this way, you can come here at night.
She pointed out the window and said, this is the beginning of the night. On a night with the moon and stars, you can sleep at night.
"But, this day just disappeared. Where did the sun go? " The little boy asked.
"It didn't disappear during the day, just went to other places. It's night here, other places are places where the sun rises, and nothing will disappear forever. " Mom said.
The boy is lying on the bed and his mother is sitting by the bed.
"So where did you go after the wind stopped?" The little boy asked.
"When the wind stops, it actually blows to other places and makes the trees there dance." Mom said.
The little boy asked again: where has the dandelion fluff been blown by the wind?
Mother replied: I flew to the grass in another yard with new flowers.
