In honour of A-fu.

Huishan clay figurines are small round figurines made in clay from the Huishan Mountains, and painted in bright colors, which have a history of 400 years, developed and flourished. One day, an ar_st makes a figurine that looks like a li\le girl, and calls her Ah Fu. With a silent smile, the clay figurine Ah Fu tells people that when they are afraid of something, all they have to do is to say "It’s not so big, it’s not so big" and face it with a smile. The book is a riot of color and great fun. Using humor, it encourages children not to be scared of things they don’t know.
