★ A high-energy family with millions of followers and 24 million views across the web is here! This is an inner healing comic book hand-drawn by James Yang and compiled by mother Bai Xue, dedicated to all the children who weren't steadily held as they grew up.
★ Love your adult self dearly, for every adult was once a child. Give yourself an inner ritual of growth! Identify emotional patterns, establish clear boundaries, repair self-worth, understand relationship dilemmas, and raise yourself all over again.
★ Featuring over 200 original comics by James Yang, all outlined with colored pencils and hand-colored. With a signature surrealist and sketching style, every comic is filled with sincerity and warmth. The creative reversible book design unlocks a dual-directional self-healing: close your eyes to let go of the past, and open them to move forward with composure!
★ When you truly like yourself and understand that you are inherently complete and worthy of love, you no longer need external things to prove your worth. You will stop chasing fleeting pleasures or forcing yourself to achieve impossible goals. The code to liberation is hidden in everyone's heart; you just haven't discovered it yet.

This is a comic book that has finally reached you after a long period of preparation and repeated revisions. We found that it is still far from perfect; it has its flaws and makes mistakes, much like we do. Yet, we still deeply love this little book, just as we deeply love ourselves.

These illustrations were created during my interactions with children, a process of constantly healing myself and my own childhood. They have truly helped me, and so I hope they can also help everyone understand and embrace their various emotions, and reconcile with their inner child.

This little book is divided into two parts. Reading from front to back is "Eyes Closed"—we can close our eyes to rest for a while and choose happiness over always being "right." Reading from back to front is "Eyes Open"—these are some of my relatively heavy reflections on facing trauma during my process of self-exploration. Of course, there is no clear boundary between them; most of the time, the two coexist. Opening and closing one's eyes is, in itself, a closed loop.

Through this book, I hope you will not fear growing up, not reject intimacy, and not be too hard on yourself. May you re-parent your inner self, regain a sense of control over your life, calmly accept imperfection, steadfastly favor yourself, and live bravely and passionately.
