Red picture books, which carry the revolutionary spirit of South China, play a crucial role in cultivating healthy aesthetic views and subtly passing on the red spirit among young children. However, these picture books currently face practical issues such as a small creative community and limited dissemination channels. In response to this, this project focuses on the revolutionary spirit of South China from an aesthetic education perspective. By visiting red bases in South China and interviewing veterans, it aims to distill elements for children's picture books and promote more creators to join through a red picture book collection competition. Additionally, by integrating picture book courses into kindergartens and communities, the project promotes and spreads the revolutionary spirit of South China, expands and extends aesthetic education functions, enhances children's appreciation of beauty, and fosters a sense of national identity.
