The Boy Who Went to Mars BSW1349

US$24.95

On the day that Stanley’s mom takes a work trip overnight, Stanley decides to leave planet Earth. But when his spaceship touches down again in the backyard, a young martian crawls out, proclaiming to Stanley’s dad that residents of Mars don’t wash before dinner, eat their vegetables, or brush their teeth. It just so happens that martians tend to act out in school, too. . . . With whimsy and sympathy for a familiar dilemma, Simon James ushers us into the coping fantasies of an imaginative, sensitive kid — and shares the pleasure of his sheepish reunion with a most accepting family.

这一天,斯坦利的妈妈必须外出,斯坦利则打算离开地球。他跑到了花园里,爬进了他的宇宙飞船。飞船发射升空,进入了外太空……往火星飞去。没过多久,这艘飞船重新回到了地球,降落在斯坦利家的花园里。然后……一个和斯坦利长得一模一样的火星男孩钻了出来!
孩子经常沉浸在幻想的世界里,渴望变成另一个身份。在这个世界里他可以为所欲为,对讨厌的事情大声说不。不过,如果真把幻想的身份带到现实中,会出现什么样的情况呢? 本书给孩子一个情绪纾解的管道,当思念父母却不知该如何处理情绪,孩子们或许会选择以“反抗”的方式表达,而斯坦利则是藉由另一个身分做回任性的自己。当斯坦利变成火星人,家人都尊重他的选择,不去破坏他的想象。本书也给了父母一个如何和沉浸在幻想中的孩子相处的范本。

By Simon James, Hardcover, Simplified Chinese characters, 30 Pages, 11.7"x9"
