The Man Who Walked Between the Towers BSE007

US$15.95

Now you can enjoy this Caldecott medal award winning book in Chinese. In 1974, French aerialist Philippe Petit threw a tightrope between the two towers of the World Trade Center and spent an hour walking, dancing, and performing high-wire tricks a quarter mile in the sky. This picture book captures the poetry and magic of the event with a poetry of its own: lyrical words and lovely paintings that present the detail, daring, and--in two dramatic foldout spreads-- the vertiginous drama of Petit's feat. Traditional characters. Ages 4- 8.
《爱心树世界杰出绘本选·高空走索人》紧扣菲利普那满怀诗意和魔力的艺术激情,用简洁冷峻的语言和精彩的油画笔法,让每一个细节丝毫毕现,还巧妙地设计了两个拉页:水平式拉页,引领读一起漫步空中;垂直式拉页,则更加突出了双子星大楼梦幻般的高度和距离。《爱心树世界杰出绘本选·高空走索人》重现了30多年前那激动人心又紧张万分的一幕,也让人们再次体会那满怀豪情,为梦想不懈努力的精神。1974年,纽约世贸中心双子星大楼即将竣工之际,法国杂技艺术家菲利普.帕特在两座楼之间拉起了一条钢索,他在400米的高空行走,舞蹈,做着各种各样的表演,时间长达一个小时。2001年,震惊全球的“9·11”事件爆发,双子星大楼因遭受恐怖袭击而倒塌,菲利普的壮举从此成为历史的绝唱,再也不可重现,但它已和大楼一起,永远融入了纽约的城市记忆。《爱心树世界杰出绘本选·高空走索人》:追求梦想与心灵自由的勇气之书荣获美国绘本最高奖——凯迪克金奖!同题材纪录片《偷天钢索人》荣获奥斯卡奖
