Chinese Cultural Revolution

I picked the picture of Mao and all the kids. I picked this picture because it has a real strong connection to The Red Scarf Girl in many ways, like the picture shows Mao the person in the book leading the revolution. It connects to the book because through out the whole book all the children love Mao. They always take about how great he is and how he is changing China for the better. I would disagree with this but that isn't the assignment. It also connects because all the kids wanted to follow Mao and the picture shows Mao as almost like a role model figure to the children.
