The Stray Dog BSW1451

US$22.95

Caldecott Medalist Marc Simont's heartwarming tale of a stray dog is told with tender simplicity and grace.

When a little dog appears at a family picnic, the girl and boy play with him all afternoon, and they name him Willy. At day's end they say good-bye. But the dog has won their hearts and stays on their minds.

The following Saturday the family returns to the picnic grounds to look for Willy, but they are not alone—the dog catcher is looking for him, too!

一家人去公园野餐,发现了一只流浪狗。孩子们和狗狗开心地玩了一整天,并给它取名叫“威利”。傍晚,他们依依不舍地跟威利道别。奇怪的是……回家后的整整一个星期,这家人心里都惦记着这只流浪狗。直到第二周,他们再一次来到公园寻找威利。不巧的是,捕狗的人也在搜捕它……
故事改编自作者朋友的一段真实经历,温暖感人,很容易引起读者的共鸣。马克·西蒙特一生为许多经典图画书绘制了插图,《流浪狗》是他一本自写自画的作品,并为他赢得了第三个凯迪克奖。

我们可以从故事与画面中看到一家人对小狗的爱护与怜悯,尤其是孩子们对小狗的爱,让它终拥有了一个家,是孩子们的善良,拉进了人与动物的距离。同时,我们也会从侧面看到人与人之间的淡漠与疏离,这会带给我们更多的思考和启迪。孩子们面对流浪狗的危难状况,表现出来的勇气、智慧和担当,会给小读者带来很多启发,收留一只流浪狗,不仅意味着爱,也意味着责任。
