会 is a funny looking umbrella
大 is a man standing with arms wide open, legs apart
只 is a TV set with 2 legs
头 is someone with 2 bullets on one side of his head
The hieroglyph of 家 is like 4 people squeeze under one roof
Malcolm goes to a Chinese school
The main language spoken in school is Mandarin
He enjoys his 横 竖 撇 捺 more than his A B C D
Each alphabet is like a squirmy worm whose direction often confuse him
Each Chinese character is a funny picture or an interesting illustration
It is interesting how kids learn
and it fascinates me to hear about things he sees and I don’t
We can teach a child what we claim we know
A child with an open and untainted mind
is able to teach us the unknown
only if we let them
