What Is Love?

內容簡介

內容簡介 什麼是愛？ 什麼是愛？小男孩問奶奶，但奶奶太老了，不知怎麼回答，給了小男孩一個抱抱，溫柔地說：「到世界各地走走，就知道什麼是愛。」 小男孩問漁夫，漁夫說愛是魚，但魚太滑了，小男孩不愛。小男孩又問演員，演員說愛是觀眾的掌聲，但是觀眾會走開啊？小男孩不解。於是他又問貓咪、狗狗、木匠、農夫、士兵……他們說愛是夜晚、是房子、是種子、是劍……最後問到了詩人，詩人拿著一大串名單，男孩沒耐性聽完便奔回家。 燈是亮著的，狗狗在窗邊吠叫著歡迎，小男孩脫下鞋感受花園的泥土，輕嘆一口氣。奶奶沒出來迎接，奶奶變得更老了，而男孩更高了……瞬間，男孩好像知道答案了。 A beautiful fable about the nature of love, from beloved, award-winning picture book creators Mac Barnett and Carson Ellis. "What is love?" a young boy asks. "I can't answer that," his grandmother says, and so the boy goes out into the world to find out. But while each person he meets—the fisherman, the actor, and others—has an answer to his question, not one seems quite right. Could love really be a fish, or applause, or the night? Or could it actually be something much closer to home? This tender, funny tale is an original take on the "I love you" story, a picture book treasure for all ages to read and cherish. A CLASSIC LOVE STORY: A wonderful narrative voice and spectacular pictures give this book the feel of a modern classic. Fans of The Runaway Bunny, Guess How Much I Love You, and Love You Forever will adore this book. A BOOK THAT KIDS AS WELL AS PARENTS WILL ENJOY: Many books about the love between parents and children are told from an adult's point of view. This book begins from the child's perspective, and it's funny and unexpected in ways that children can relate to, while being thoughtful in ways that adults will appreciate. Like all great children's books, this book can be understood on many levels. A BOOK ABOUT FINDING YOURSELF: The boy's journey takes him to many different people, whose descriptions of what love means to them is very much about how they see themselves and their lives. A GREAT READ-ALOUD: The engaging text is full of surprises and the distinctive voice of the narrator invites audiences to respond. STAR TALENT: Mac Barnett is a New York Times bestselling author and a beloved figure on the school speaking circuit. Carson Ellis is a Caldecott Honor-winner and illustrator of some of the most interesting and beautiful children's books published today.
