Is Zhu Bajie a black pig or a white pig? What is the Mysterious Series of the New "Guide Handbook" of Shanghai Natural History Museum | Books | Shanghai Natural History Museum
Why are butterflies so "flower"? Is Zhu Bajie a black pig or a white pig? Whose child is a tadpole? Just by looking at the book titles, the "Diverse World of Life: Enjoying Nature" series has a fascinating atmosphere.
As the first professional children's publishing house in New China to cater to children and adolescents, the Children's Publishing House has been established for over 70 years and has published numerous high-quality and popular children's books. The old popular science masterpiece "100000 Whys" has accompanied generations of young people's growth. In recent years, children's societies have innovated and taken advantage of the wave of the digital age to continuously launch diverse forms of popular science products. One of them is the "Diverse Life World · Pleasant Reading of Nature" series.
"The Diverse World of Life" is a science popularization brand created by Children's Publishing House for 9 years, with strong assistance from social resources such as the Shanghai Natural History Museum. The brand was initially presented in the form of digital courses and has won the National Digital Publishing Excellence Award. This time, Children's Publishing House has once again teamed up with Shanghai Natural History Museum to launch the brand's first book product, "Joyful Reading of Nature," after more than 2 years of polishing. It includes 6 science popularization books and 6 audio books, and was first released on August 12th at the East Hall in the picture above.
This series of books continues the quality of "diverse life world" boutique publications, with wonderful and interesting contents and novel and elegant binding. The text is derived from the popular science articles launched by the Shanghai Natural History Museum on its official WeChat official account over the years, and selected the best from the best, and then through second creation, careful adaptation, and scientific approval. As Wang Xiaoming, chief editor of this series of books and vice president of the Chinese Natural Science Museum Society, said at the press conference, the Shanghai Natural Science Museum has made remarkable achievements in popular science, especially a large number of high-quality popular science articles launched by its official official account have won the Shanghai Science Popularization Education Innovation Award. The publication of the "diverse life world, pleasing to read nature" series of books is a recreation and re practice on this basis, which has gathered the common efforts of many biologists, researchers and special authors of the museum. It will become a brand new "guidebook" for visitors to visit the Shanghai Museum of Nature.
"Diverse World of Life, Enjoying Nature" selects about 30 science popularization essays from each book. Wang Xiamei, Vice President of Children's Publishing House, recommended the audio book albums of this series, which are all broadcasted and recorded by the "Gold Medal" commentators of the Shanghai Natural History Museum. Even when visiting the museum on-site, it is difficult to "gather" all six explanatory celebrities in the museum at once.
It is understood that "Diverse Life World · Enjoying Nature" has been included in the 2023 Shanghai Key Book Publishing Plan and the 2023 Shanghai Financial Support Fund for Promoting the Development of Cultural and Creative Industries. It has also been recommended on the "Century Good Books" list in July and has become a highly regarded popular science product for children in the summer market.
