芭芭的花園

內容簡介

內容簡介 由一支獲獎團隊創作的精美圖畫書《My Baba's Garden》描繪了孩子與祖母之間的溫馨親情。這本書的靈感來自作者Jordan Scott童年的回憶，探索了孩子與心愛的祖母（Baba）相處時所經歷的視覺、聽覺和嗅覺印象，尤其是他們一起幫助祖母照顧花園、尋找蚯蚓以保持土壤健康的時光。他每天拜訪祖母，發現她隱藏在滾燙的馬鈴薯蒸氣中，一隻手拿著甜菜，一條腿打開櫥櫃，一個肘部關上冰箱，當她做飯時像一整個夜晚充滿蟲鳴般地哼著歌。詩人Jordan Scott與插畫家Sydney Smith的上一部合作作品《I Talk Like a River》獲得了波士頓格洛布-霍恩圖書獎，講述了父親與兒子之間珍貴回憶的故事。在這本新書中，他們將同樣的溫柔欣賞轉向了男孩與祖母之間的情感聯繫。Sydney Smith的插畫以其獨特的效果捕捉了孩子記憶中的感官印象。這本書榮獲了Junior Library Guild金標準選書。The special relationship between a child and his grandmother is depicted in this sumptuous book by an award-winning team. Inspired by memories of his childhood, Jordan Scott's My Baba's Garden explores the sights, sounds, and smells experienced by a child spending time with their beloved grandmother (Baba), with special attention to the time they spent helping her tend her garden, searching for worms to keep it healthy. He visits her every day and finds her hidden in the steam of boiling potatoes, a hand holding a beet, a leg opening a cupboard, an elbow closing the fridge, humming like a night full of bugs when she cooks. Poet Jordan Scott and illustrator Sydney Smith's previous collaboration, I Talk Like a River, which received a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award expored a cherished memory shared between a father and son. In their new book, they turn that same wistful appreciation to the bond between a boy and his grandmother. Sydney Smith's illustrations capture the sensational impressions of a child's memory with iconic effect. A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
