At first glance no difference
Also curved wings
Pinwheel and fan
Both are very fond of spinning.

Must be a pinwheel
Dance all day long
The other fan is mom.
Always working?
you two
The difference is here
The fan rotates to make wind.
The wind makes the pinwheel spin!

Poet Dang Han is a person who has many good and funny poems written for children. He is a mathematician, so the way he constructs poems always has unexpected situations that seem like illogical induction but are very reasonable in the intuitive thinking of children. The poem "Fan and Pinwheel" is a very interesting comparison.
In the summer, we are often familiar with fans and pinwheels, which are quite lively toys for children. The poet begins with the observations: “At first glance, there is no difference/ Same curved wings/ Pinwheels and fans/ Both love to spin” . The rhythm of the poem is like a narrative with a five-word verse form, one fluttering, one comparison and a bit of curiosity to explore . In the thinking of children, they often put objects next to each other, high and low, big and small, but here both objects have in common the “curved wings”.
The sequential guidance to lead to sudden changes is a technique that poets writing for children often use. The beauty of the poem is not only developing in a linear way of thinking but also creating a new field of association, new emotions to reach new feelings from its comparison. That is: "Must be a pinwheel is a child / Happy dancing all day" is like a friendly harmony but to: "And the other fan is mother / Always working hard?" has spread a love, a sharing. The poet uses the pair of reduplicated words "lam lam" as a movement that is not only a work movement but also a stirring in the sympathetic emotions of the children. A flicker in the hearts of children and also the sparkle of the mother's hard-working beauty to bring joy and innocence "dancing all day" of the children.
The last verse, the poem's quatrain is pushed to another level, another climax, another perception, quite intelligent and surprising. This is the highlight of the poem, surpassing even the physics lessons from the phenomenon of things: "My friend, those two things/ The difference is precisely here" . From the similarity in curved and rotating wings, here, more than a simple arithmetic calculation of the similarity, the difference is the addition of the soul: "The fan turns to create wind/ The wind makes the pinwheel turn!" . The invisible wind, the cool, loving wind, has conveyed many levels. The poet does not say: The fan makes the pinwheel turn, but through the wind (as well as the result of mother's labor), dispels the summer heat and gives the children the pinwheel game. Everything is multiplied and divided to reach a result: That is the love of children and gratitude for the mother's efforts.
