The Beijing Winter Olympic Games, which were opened on February 4, 2022, definitely left an indelible impression upon primary and secondary school children across China during their winter vacation. To enable children to understand winter sports, read stories about the Olympic Winter Games, and put into practice the Olympic Spirit, Beijing Organising Committee for the 2022 Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games and Beijing Publishing Group jointly compiled A Knowledge Book about 2022 Beijing Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games for Adolescents (primary school edition and secondary school edition) (hereinafter referred to as A Knowledge Book).

A Knowledge Book is divided into two editions – one for primary school children and the other for secondary school children. The articles included are short, written with concise language and illustrated, taking into account the age and cognitive needs of primary and secondary school children. Based on the connotations and logic of the cultural themes of the Olympic Games, A Knowledge Book focuses on the core content of the Olympic and Paralympic Winter Games, providing school children with a carefully prepared “spiritual feast about Olympic Winter Games.”
