精彩书评
"The year is 1294; the hero, 11-year-old Adam Quartermayne, good-natured son of "Roger the minstrel." Shortly after the story opens, Adam has a joyous reunion with his father, who's been gone five months. Upon his return, (along with Adam's beloved dog, Nick), they set off on the road together. Life goes smoothly until Roger gambles away both money and horse to fellow minstrel Jankin. Things get even worse when Jankin steals Nick and Adam gives chase, losing Roger. Over a period of many months and miles, Adam goes it alone, searching for Roger and depending on strangers: "Adam knew why Roger said the road was home to the minstrel. It was because people were kind." Along the way, the reader gets a good feel for the time period and, by journey's end, Adam has found both father and dog once again. Although over sixty years old, Gray's story (like Avi's Crispin: The Cross Of Lead, another Newbery-winner recounting roughly the same time period) remains one that today's reader can relate to: "If [grown-ups] told you anything, they expected you to remember it forever when you told them something half the time they forget it " Engaging and beautifully written, Adam and his travels are worth the journey, but frequent use of words like "demesne," "villein," "reeve," and "hauberk" make me question the "Ages 8 and up" readership the publisher claims. The illustrations by Lawson (also a Newbery winner) are perfect, and their placement directly before the chapter creates a nice sense of anticipation."

据发现早慧的孩子都有一个共同的特点,就是喜欢阅读,古今中外,也有不少因为儿时喜欢阅读而最终走上成功道路的名人。对于孩子来说,阅读不仅仅是一种从阅读内容中获取有用信息的一种方式,而且还是构成他们日常生活的一项重要内容,是促进孩子的人性健康发展的有益方式。孩子在阅读对象的潜移默化之下会慢慢的形成良好的道德感、审美感和意志力。换句话说,阅读对于孩子的情商发展是十分有利的。我们都知道,情商对于一个正在成长的孩子来说,有的时候甚至会比智商更加重要。一个智商高的孩子,如果没有坚强、乐观的性格以及正确的人生观和世界观的辅助的话,是很难真正获得成功的。而这些品格都是应该从小培养的。目前很多家庭也越来越重视幼儿阅读能力的培养,但也要注意方式方法。兴趣是最好的老师,在培养幼儿阅读能力中也是如此,想让孩子爱上阅读,首先要培养孩子的阅读兴趣。1、选择孩子感兴趣的图书;2、父母自己必须喜欢读书;3、让幼儿在游戏中阅读;4、将故事表演出来。可见,阅读是帮助孩子情商发展的一种有效的方式,是引导孩子健康成长的一种重要的方法。优秀的阅读作品会对孩子的情商发展产生不可预计的作用,它们往往具有很强的道德感染力,有一种洗涤心灵、催人向上的力量。
