A reissue of Ludwig Bemelmans’s enchanting picture book, which offers a unique view of New York City and will appeal to fans of his classic Madeline books.
First published in 1950, this classic picture book by the creator of Madeline tells the story of a music teacher and her crotchety landlord who will do anything for peace and quiet. Readers will meet Miss Moore, a sweet and eccentric older woman who moves into an apartment in New York City and, with the help of her students, outwits her landlord, Mr. Sunshine, when he tries to evict her after learning that she intends to run a music school in her apartment. Full of charm, umbrellas, and a little bit of Christmas Eve magic, Sunshine―as the 1950 publication states―is an enchanting tale with the “gentle touch of Madeline, as well as some thoroughly ridiculous situations. [It is] a unique guide to New York City, showing its landmarks as they could only be seen through the eyes of Ludwig Bemelmans.”
阳光先生是个挑剔的房东，所以他的房子很长时间都租不出去。一天，彬彬有礼、守时可爱的老太太摩尔女士来到，阳光先生痛快地签订了租房协议。他还不知道，但很快就会发现，摩尔小姐经营的是一所非常热闹的音乐学校。阳光先生会怎么办呢？
一位挑剔又苛刻的房东，对所有前来租房的人都不满意，直到守时又优雅的摩尔小姐的到来。可是令他没有想到的是，摩尔小姐竟然经营的是音乐学校。这比以往的情况都糟糕！于是阳光先生想要赶走他们，可是却无功而返。就在事情出现转机的时候，天气又帮了摩尔小姐一次。这个发生在纽约市的曲折故事，读起来让人感觉真实。实际上，路德维格创作的故事，大部分都是自己亲身经历或亲耳听到的故事。
