内容简介
This is another beautifully illustrated and highly original story from the author of the
The Very Hungry Caterpillar and
The Bad-Tempered Ladybird. The artist begins by drawing a star, then the star asks him to draw a sun, and the sun asks him to draw a tree and soon the artist has drawn a whole world. As children follow Eric Carle's words and pictures, they will learn to understand and enjoy drawing themselves. This is the perfect book to introduce one of the essential creative activities of early childhood.
书里的画家彩笔一挥,像变魔术一样,创造出一个又一个「很棒的」、「温暖的」、「可爱的」、「漂亮的」生命、东西和自然景物。这麽多不同的形容词,表达了画家描述与看待世界的方式。创造的过程有条有理,各个独立个体之间有生命互相依存的需求,也是和谐共处的关系。情节一步步推展,堆叠到了画面最丰富的无字跨页图画时,整个世界,是那麽地生气蓬勃、充满喜悦,让人不得不赞叹──生命真是奇妙的恩典。创造的过程,伴随着人生的周期,画家从小孩变成青年、再变成中年人,最後变成老人,随着星星飞向空中,显示他对艺术创作,持续不懈的热情和努力,也让人看到艺术的生命,是如何自由飞翔,并可以与照亮黑夜。艺术、世界与人生,三者之间,原来是互有关连。有人说本书是艾瑞.卡尔的自传,你认为呢?
作者简介
Eric Carle is the author and illustrator of more than seventy books for children, many of them bestsellers. Born in Syracuse, New York, he moved to Germany with his parents when he was six years old. He studied at the Academy of Graphic Arts in Stuttgart before returning to the United States, where he worked as a graphic designer for The New York Times and later as art director for an international advertising agency. His first two books, 1,2,3 to the Zoo and The Very Hungry Caterpillar, gained him immediate international recognition. The latter title, now considered a modern classic, has sold more than 30 million copies and has been translated into forty-eight languages. Eric Carle and his wife, Barbara, divide their time between the mountains of North Carolina and the Florida Keys.
艾瑞·卡尔,1929年出生于纽约,1935年随父母返德国定居。艾瑞·卡尔讨厌德国式的教育,权威教育下的学校生活及时代的战乱,让他的少年时光并不快乐。战后,从小就展露绘画天分且向往自由浪漫的艾瑞·卡尔,在中学绘画老师的推荐及母亲的鼓励下,进入斯图加特艺术学院学习了四年的商业设计,一毕业即在时尚杂志担任艺术总监。1952年,艾瑞·卡尔再次踏上他要实现梦想的土地——美国。因缘巧合,艾瑞·卡尔得到李欧·李奥尼的赏识和推荐,顺利开始他在《纽约时报》的工作,发挥美术兼广告设计的长才。1960年成立了个人工作室,辛勤工作之外,他更渴望蜕变、渴望创作!
1967年,艾瑞·卡尔首次有机会为孩子的书配上插画,这次充满乐趣、大胆发挥创意的过程,让他感觉畅快淋漓,也引领他日后走向为儿童创作图画书的道路。他年近40才开始创作图画书,迄今为止,已经创作了《棕色的熊、棕色的熊,你在看什么?》、《好饿的毛毛虫》、《海马先生》、《爸爸,我要月亮》等70多本色彩缤纷、富含想象力的拼贴画风格的图画书,被翻译成了多种语言,小读者遍布世界各地,并荣获多项世界著名儿童图画书奖。他笔下那条最著名的毛毛虫,已被翻译成近50种语言版本,销量突破3300万,风行世界40余年。
