內容簡介
Elephants are gray. Pigs are pink. Only the chameleon has no color of his own. He is purple like the heather, yellow like a lemon, even black and orange striped like a tiger! Then one day a chameleon has an idea to remain one color forever by staying on the greenest leaf he can find. But in the autumn, the leaf changes from green to yellow to red . . . and so does the chameleon. When another chameleon suggests they travel together, he learns that companionship is more important than having a color of his own. No matter where he goes with his new friend, they will always be alike.
作者簡介
Leo Lionni, an internationally known designer, illustrator, and graphic artist, was born in Holland and lived in Italy until he came to the United States in 1939. He was the recipient of the 1984 American Institute of Graphic Arts Gold Medal and was honored posthumously in 2007 with the Society of Illustrators’ Lifetime Achievement Award. His picture books are distinguished by their enduring moral themes, graphic simplicity and brilliant use of collage, and include four Caldecott Honor Books: Inch by Inch, Frederick, Swimmy, and Alexander and the Wind-Up Mouse. Hailed as “a master of the simple fable” by the Chicago Tribune, he died in 1999 at the age of 89.
李歐·李奧尼,1910年5月齣生於荷蘭阿姆斯特丹,父親是比利時猶太商人,母親是女高音歌唱傢。因傢在美術館附近,舅舅們又是建築師、畫傢和藝術品收藏傢,所以他從小就得以浸潤在濃鬱的藝術氛圍之中。13歲起,他隨傢人輾轉美國、意大利。1935年獲得經濟學博士學位。1945年,歐洲掀起反猶太浪潮,他們被迫舉傢走避美國。
李奧尼是一個纔華橫溢、不受拘束的藝術天纔,繪畫、雕刻、平麵設計、印刷、陶藝、攝影......樣樣精通,曾任美國《財富》雜誌設計主管長達10年。其間,他多次在歐洲和美國舉辦個人畫展、設計展,並曾擔任美國平麵造型藝術學會主席、1953年度國際設計大會主席。1955年獲美國平麵造型藝術協會最佳廣告製作美術指導奬、1956年獲建築聯盟金牌奬。1984年獲頒美國平麵造型藝術學會奬時,他受到這樣的評價:他通過自己的藝術創作、設計創作,對設計領域的領導和人纔培養,以及通過為孩子們創作繪本,深深地影響瞭至少三代人。人文主義和理性主義自始至終貫穿著他的作品。
盡管李奧尼開始創作繪本時已經49歲,他卻開創瞭一個繪本的新時代。
《紐約時報》曾不惜溢美之詞給予他這樣的評價“如果繪本是我們這個時代一種新的視覺藝術,李歐·李奧尼則是這種風格的大傢。” 他的繪本獲奬無數,其中《一寸蟲》、《小黑魚》、《田鼠阿佛》、《亞曆山大和發條老鼠》分彆於1961年、1964年、1968年及1970年四次榮獲美國凱迪剋大奬。1999年10月,這位被譽為“色彩魔術師”的繪本大師在意大利與世長辭,享年89歲。
精彩書評
"Lionni's signature watercolors span the rainbow in this story of a chameleon who, while searching for his identity, finds a friend with whom he can share his changeable nature."
-- Publishers Weekly
"Lionni's simple tale of a dissatisfied chameleon who finally finds happiness is as captivating now as it was when first published in 1975. We meet the green parrot, the red goldfish, the gray elephant, and the pink pig; "All animals have a color of their own, except for chameleons." Chameleons change color depending on where they are. The chameleon in this story hopes to find a color of his own, but the leaf he is on turns yellow and red and falls off the tree, leaving the chameleon black "in the long winter night." When he meets another chameleon in the spring who will stay by his side and change color with him, he can finally live "happily ever after." Watercolors on prepared papers are used to cut the simplest of shapes stuck on white pages. A strong contrast is made with the dark purple background for winter and the sharp green blades of grass for spring. The spare text offers lessons on color, on chameleons, and on friendship."
