 Also in 1922, Li began editing the children's magazine "Little Friend", which soon became the nation's best selling periodical.In "Little Friend", Li promoted anti-feudalist attitudes, national use of Mandarin Chinese, family values, sharing, harmony with nature, and good citizenship through nursery rhymes and children's operas.The songs were stripped down to just the melody, written in simplified notation, and they fused Chinese instrumentation with guitars, violins and pianos.
