Syd Hoff (September 4, 1912 Bronx, New York – May 12, 2004) was a Jewish-American cartoonist and children's book author. Although best known for his classic early reader Danny and the Dinosaur, his cartoons appeared in a multitude of genres, including advertising commissions for such companies as Eveready Batteries, Jell-O, S.O.S Pads, Rambler, Ralston Cereal and more.
While Hoff was still in high school, Milt Gross, a popular 1930s cartoonist, told him at an assembly that "Kid, someday you'll be a great cartoonist!" At 16, he enrolled at the National Academy of Design in New York City. At 18, he sold his first cartoon to The New Yorker, and would sell a total of 571 of them to the publication from 1931 to 1975. Hoff became known for his cartoons, in The New Yorker, depicting tenements and lower-middle class life in the city.
Hoff drew two long-running syndicated comic strips: Tuffy (1939–1949) and Laugh It Off (1958–1978). One of Hoff's recurring characters, a walrus-mustached man, eventually appeared as the father in his daily Tuffy, done for the King Features Syndicate from 1940 to 1950.
His cartoons have appeared in a variety of publications including, the New Yorker, Esquire, Look magazine. He was also the host of a television show, Tales of Hoff, in which he drew and told stories.
Hoff wrote and illustrated over 60 volumes in the HarperCollins "I Can Read" series for beginning readers, most notably Sammy the Seal and the popular Danny and the Dinosaur (1958), which sold 10 million copies and has been translated into a dozen languages.
In 1976, Hoff edited and published Editorial and Political Cartooning: From Earlier Times to the Present, which contains over 700 examples of works from the world's editorial and political cartoons.

評分從傳統語文教學觀到大語文教學觀是一個從知識本位嚮人本位的轉化過程。它不再以“傳道、授業、解惑”為教學的根本目的,而是以學會學習,促進人格與個性全麵發展為重點。從這一理念齣發,學生的主體地位必須得到保證,自主學習習慣必須得到培養。讓學生自由選擇自己愛讀的書籍,本身就是尊重學生個性的錶現。而學生由封閉式讀書轉為開放式閱讀,本身又極大激發其自主學習的積極性。通過大力推動課外閱讀,讓學生自己去獲取,去探求,去尋覓,去掌握,從而感受讀書的樂趣,激發更強烈的讀書欲望,最終形成習慣。課外閱讀把追求學問變成學生自覺自願的行動,有助於實現增強學生的主體意識,發展學生的主體能力,塑造學生的主體人格的目的。
評分培養學生的閱讀習慣,有助於培養自主學習的良好習慣。
