Abstract: The children's narrative process featuring fragmentation and details in Sholokhov's novels takes on a variety of ethics. The direct narration about children demonstrates the author's utopia ethnics, whether it be the free world which the innocent children build or the happy world where children live in. The description about revolutionary justice and injustice from the perspective of unreliable narrators such as children highlights the respect of the value of life itself in the context of revolution. In the indirect narration with children as symbols, the author focuses on the narrative significance of children's functionalization and symbolization. In the communication of adults and children, the true narrative of children's symbol represents redemption of the adult's evilness, and the misery narration reflects the author's concern on children development, and his cognition on the importance of family ethical education and mercy of Christian ethics for the weak. Besides, the adults' choices in the ethical dilemma between revolutionary justice and children who stand for the hope of humans also embody Sholokhov's respect of life.
