Two Little Trains BSW016

US$14.95

Two-time Caldecott Medalists Leo and Diane Dillon (Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears and Ashanti to Zulu: African Traditions) have joined their ingenious artwork with the magic of Margaret Wise Brown's words. Brown, beloved author of Goodnight Moon, wrote Two Little Trains more than 50 years ago. Now a new generation of the youngest readers will be filled with wonder at this timeless story with its splendid new illustrations. Two trains are heading west. One is streamlined, the other small and old. On their parallel journeys, the trains encounter rivers, hills, snow, and dust storms, but neither is thwarted. But look closer and see that these two trains, though similar in many ways, have a surprising difference: one is the real thing, traversing the countryside, and the other is a toy, making its way across rug fringe "tracks," along the edge of a bathtub, through a tunnel made from a book, and past a broom and dust pan. Brown's brilliant yet simple text and the Dillons' clever and striking pictures, will serve as inspiration to many flights of fancy in young readers' minds. Truly exquisite. Ages 4-8.

故事里有两列不同造型、行走不同路线的小火车。两列小火车中,一列是流线型的新火车,一列则是旧式老火车,分别在书里的左右页。爸妈除了以轻快的节奏念简洁的文字给孩子听以外,别忘了引领孩子一起阅读画面,激发对比和想象的能力。左页第一个画面,新火车沿着铁轨在“高架桥”下出发了,右页对应的是家中的高脚椅;左页新火车穿过城镇与乡村,右页对应的则是老火车开过有玩具熊、软皮球和风景图样的地毯。慢慢的,左页新火车过山洞了!瞧,右页老火车也在穿过书架成的山洞!夜深了,左页新火车在皎洁的月光照拂、满天的星斗陪衬下行进,右页的老火车则开到屋里的窗台边,一样看得到星星和月亮!左页新火车来到四周都是荆棘和仙人掌的沙漠,这时,你猜,右页的老火车到哪里了?家中厨房的扫帚和簸箕旁!
