精彩書評
"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."

據發現早慧的孩子都有一個共同的特點,就是喜歡閱讀,古今中外,也有不少因為兒時喜歡閱讀而最終走上成功道路的名人。對於孩子來說,閱讀不僅僅是一種從閱讀內容中獲取有用信息的一種方式,而且還是構成他們日常生活的一項重要內容,是促進孩子的人性健康發展的有益方式。孩子在閱讀對象的潛移默化之下會慢慢的形成良好的道德感、審美感和意誌力。換句話說,閱讀對於孩子的情商發展是十分有利的。我們都知道,情商對於一個正在成長的孩子來說,有的時候甚至會比智商更加重要。一個智商高的孩子,如果沒有堅強、樂觀的性格以及正確的人生觀和世界觀的輔助的話,是很難真正獲得成功的。而這些品格都是應該從小培養的。目前很多傢庭也越來越重視幼兒閱讀能力的培養,但也要注意方式方法。興趣是最好的老師,在培養幼兒閱讀能力中也是如此,想讓孩子愛上閱讀,首先要培養孩子的閱讀興趣。1、選擇孩子感興趣的圖書;2、父母自己必須喜歡讀書;3、讓幼兒在遊戲中閱讀;4、將故事錶演齣來。可見,閱讀是幫助孩子情商發展的一種有效的方式,是引導孩子健康成長的一種重要的方法。優秀的閱讀作品會對孩子的情商發展産生不可預計的作用,它們往往具有很強的道德感染力,有一種洗滌心靈、催人嚮上的力量。
