This series consists of 6 books:
"The Wisdom of Learning"
"The Wisdom of Courage"
"The Wisdom of Kindness"
"The Wisdom of Action"
"The Wisdom of Choice"
"The Wisdom of Virtue"

This book transforms ancient wisdom into concrete, dramatic, and heartfelt plots through 19 independent historical stories.

Readers will follow the journey of two modern children, Dahua and Xiaohua, as they travel through time to witness these stories firsthand. They will encounter people who use clever words and ingratiating expressions to please others, understanding the warning that "Fine words and an insinuating appearance are seldom associated with true virtue." They will witness how an unvirtuous person treats rituals with disrespect, grasping the true meaning of "If a man is without virtue, what has he to do with rituals?" They will also see, in the story of "The gentleman understands what is moral; the small man understands what is profitable," how noble and narrow-minded personalities make different choices when facing personal gain.

The stories not only explore personal cultivation, such as the self-restraint advocated in "To subdue oneself and return to propriety is perfect virtue," but also delve into complex interpersonal relationships: from the golden rule of "Do not impose on others what you yourself do not desire," to the inclusive wisdom of "The gentleman is harmonious but not conforming;" from the justice and kindness in "Requite injury with justice, and kindness with kindness," to the courage and independent judgment in "When it comes to virtue, one should not defer even to one's teacher."

Each story is an adventure of thought, designed to help young readers find direction from the wisdom of ancient sages when facing real-life confusion and difficulties in interpersonal relationships, enabling them to grow into upright, kind, and principled individuals.
