       就在小田鼠们忙着为过冬采集食物的时候,阿佛却独自坐在一旁,并且告诉大家他也在工作,只不过在采集另外一些东西。冬天漫长而寒冷,慢慢地,食物被大家吃光了,这时,阿佛拿出了他“采集”的那些东西……

   小女孩莎莎喜欢编造各种稀奇古怪的事情,她一直不明白“月光”和“真实”有什么区别。在莎莎编织的“月光”中,有威风凛凛的大狮子,有可爱的袋鼠宝宝,有美人鱼妈妈,还有龙拉的战车……可是有一天,当朋友托马斯因为去寻找根本不存在的袋鼠宝宝而遭遇危险时,莎莎终于领悟了“月光”与“真实”的区别。

在英语中,“moonshine”一词既可以表示月光,又可以表示空想出来的事,因此爸爸口中所说的“假想”,在莎莎听来却总是“月光”。四届凯迪克大奖得主伊芙琳?内丝以非凡的艺术功力,成功运用黑、灰、金三色,描绘出美国北部海岸平静的渔村风光及生活于其中的孩子们内心的骚动。故事给小读者们提出了一些问题,包括如何区分想象和现实,想象有没有好坏之分等等。书中爸爸对莎莎的接纳、关怀和引导等种种表现,对面临相似问题的家长应该也有所启发吧。    Samantha (known as Sam) is a fisherman’s daughterwho dreams rich and lovely dreams--moonshine, her father says. Butwhen her tall stories bring disaster to her friend Thomas and hercat Bangs, Sam learns to distinguish between moonshine andreality.

 池塘里有一条小鱼和一只蝌蚪,他们形影不离。慢慢地,蝌蚪变成了青蛙,并且离开池塘看到了外面的世界。他跟鱼讲述了自己新奇的见闻,鱼也开始憧憬起外面的世界来。有一天,他终于鼓足勇气,爬上了岸……Illus. in full color. A modern fable of a minnow who wants tofollow his tadpole friend--who becomes a frog--onto land.

   那天晚上,麦克斯穿上他的狼服,开始了恶作剧。妈妈骂他:“野兽!”麦克斯说:“我要吃掉你!”结果妈妈没让他吃晚饭,把他关到了房间里。   正是在那天晚上,麦克斯的房间里长出了一片树林,海上漂来了一艘小船。他日夜航行,一个星期又一个星期,几乎用了一年的时间,到了一个野兽出没的地方。野兽们发出了可怕的咆哮,磨着它们可怕的牙齿,转动着它们可怕的眼睛,伸出了它们可怕的爪子。“别动!”麦克斯的眼睛一眨也不眨,盯着它们的黄眼睛,用魔法驯服了它们。它们全都害怕了,把他当成了野兽之王。   “现在,”麦克斯喊,“让野兽们闹起来吧!”它们又是对着月亮吼叫,又是吊在树上,等闹够了,“停!”麦克斯不让它们吃晚饭就让它们去睡觉了。

可是他这个野兽之王突然感到孤独起来,想到一个被人爱的地方去。这时,从遥远的世界的那一边,飘来了好吃的东西的香味。   他决定放弃在这个野兽出没的地方当国王了。可是野兽们喊:“哦,请不要走——我们要把你吃掉——我们如此爱你!”野兽们发出可怕的咆哮,磨着它们可怕的牙齿,转动着它们可怕的黄眼睛,伸出了它们可怕的爪子。但麦克斯还是上了他的小船,挥手说再见了。   然后他航行了一年,又回到了他自己房间的那个夜晚。他发现他的晚饭正等着他,而饭还是热的。

苏斯博士,可以说是二十世纪最受欢迎的儿童图画书作家,在英语世界里,是家喻户晓的人物。他创作的图画书,人物形象鲜明,个性突出,情节夸张荒诞,语言妙趣横生,是半个多世纪以来孩子们的至爱,同时他的书也被教育工作者推荐给家长,作为提高阅读能力的重要读物。

  孩子喜欢的古怪精灵的读物,为什么也会受到教师的青昧,被列为学生提高阅读能力的重要读物呢?这与苏斯博士开始创作儿童图画书的背景有关。

  二十世纪五十年代,美国教育界反思儿童阅读能力低下的状况,认为一个重要原因就是当时广泛使用的进阶型读物枯燥无味,引不起孩子的兴趣。苏斯博士的Beginner Books便应运而生。作为初级阅读资料,这些书力求使用尽可能少的简单词汇,讲述完整的故事。但远远高于过去进阶型读物的,是苏斯博士丰富的想象力、引人入胜的情节和风趣幽默、充满创造力的绘画和语言。

  苏斯博士的图画书在讲述有趣故事的同时,更有一个特别的功能,即通过这些故事来使孩子们从兴趣出发轻松地学习英语。从简单的字母,到短语、句子,再到一个个故事,苏斯博士的图画书,亦是一套让孩子们循序渐进掌握英语的优秀读物。例如其中《苏斯博士的ABC》一书,就从英文的二十六个字母入手,将字母和单词配合起来讲解,同时,这些单词又组成了一个个韵味十足的句子,不断重复加深读者对字母的记忆和理解。《一条鱼两条鱼红色的鱼蓝色的鱼》和《在爸爸身上蹦来跳去》也是采取类似的方式进行单词和句子的讲解。《穿袜子的狐狸》则是充满了饶有风趣的绕口令,对诵读者来说是一个充满快乐的挑战。

苏斯博士,可以说是二十世纪最受欢迎的儿童图画书作家,在英语世界里,是家喻户晓的人物。他创作的图画书,人物形象鲜明,个性突出,情节夸张荒诞,语言妙趣横生,是半个多世纪以来孩子们的至爱,同时他的书也被教育工作者推荐给家长,作为提高阅读能力的重要读物。 《绿鸡蛋和火腿》的创作源于苏斯博士和一位朋友打赌,能否用五十个单词写成一个故事。于是便有了这本脍炙人口的书。故事是容易引起孩子共鸣的熟悉话题——要不要尝试新食物。故事情节发展激烈,一个拼命劝,一个玩命躲,最后的结局出人意料。苏斯博士的语言是节奏感很强的韵文,朗朗上口,书中所用词汇很少,而且句子结构大量重复,只置换少量单词,孩子一旦记住了第一句,后边的句子很容易读出来,让孩子颇有成就感。

The woodland animals were all getting ready for the winter.Geese flew south, rabbits and deer grew thick warm coats, and theraccoons and chipmunks lay down for a long winter nap.

Clement Hurd redrew some of his pictures for this new edition of the profoundly comforting story of a bunny’s imaginary game of hide-and-seek and the lovingly steadfast mother who finds him every time.

In autumn, a strong wind blows flower seeds high in the air and carries them far across the land. One by one, many of the seeds are lost -- burned by the sun, fallen into the ocean, eaten by a bird. But some survive the long winter and, come spring, sprout into plants, facing new dangers -- trampled by playing children, picked as a gift for a friend. Soon only the tiniest seed remains, growing into a giant flower and, when autumn returns, sending its own seeds into the wind to start the process over again.
作者简介:Eric Carle's eloquent text and brilliant collages turn the simple life cycle of a plant into an exciting story, a nature lesson, and an inspiring message of the importance of perseverance.
