The next chapter, the dialogism of ethic narration, we will analyze narrative substructure and voice in the novels, and point out how the author talks with teenage readers about children’s ethic by contributing roles’ internal monologue, the dialogues between narrator and roles and the communication between different history views. Farther more, we also should find out how Zhang controls his talking was not hit the taboo of children’s litereature.Final, in the epilogue, needs go farther to point out Zhang’s juvenile stories was the text which is valuable in updating the ideas of childhood and exploiting the creative space in this area.
