Before, Now

內容簡介

內容簡介 以前或現在 家庭的溫暖永遠都在 很暗很暗的天空中，有一顆藍色明亮星球，星球上有藍天、白雲、海洋、流沙，陽光灑落在綠樹如蔭的街道上，街道上有個小屋，屋內有個可愛女寶寶坐在大大的椅子上。在家人的陪伴下，她恣意成長，穿著亮眼的運動鞋踩在灰灰的路上盡情奔跑。儘管周遭有起有落，但她的世界仍是彩色的。她小小的腦袋裡有著大大的夢想。長大後，她成為科學家，接著，她結婚成為母親，最後成為奶奶。白髮的她，抱著小孫子，看著手中的照片。照片裡的寶寶，就是她自己。 故事簡單而深刻。儘管歲月流逝，生活萬變，但不變的是代代相傳的家庭親情和溫暖。Follow the story of a child from babyhood to parenthood in this moving book about family connections, time, and opposites—a lyrical classic in the making from the acclaimed illustrator of the #1 New York Times bestselling Dragons Love Tacos.Ava’s world is full of opposites: colorful sneakers on a gray sidewalk, thick books made up of thin sheets of paper, and dreams of huge spaces in her small head. Together, these opposites depict a full and impactful life, as Ava moves from girl to student to scientist, from daughter to mother to grandmother. While years pass and some things change, there is even more that is constant in this visually rich, soothing portrait of family connection through the generations.You'll want to cozy up and read this touching, beautiful book together with the children in your life. And as a celebration of personal and family milestones, it's a perfect gift for baby showers and graduations.

各界推薦

各界推薦 ★ "Employing a quiet, unadorned narrative voice and softly burnished colored pencil illustrations, Salmieri muses about how life is made up of paradoxes and opposites. . . This intergenerational portrait slowly suggests the way moments can provide anchors and recur—it’s a 'whoa' kind of idea pitched at just the right level for the target audience." —Publishers Weekly, starred review★ "Salmieri delivers a moving intergenerational story using opposites as its central conceit . . . [with] an immensely satisfying, full-circle conclusion." —Horn Book, starred review"A series of moments, mundane and meaningful, capture the wonder of a life well lived . . . This play between text and illustration will engage young readers, while the journey through familiar beats of life is sure to tug at caretakers’ heartstrings . . . This meditation on the patterns of life shines with reminders of what we carry with us as we grow." —Kirkus"The colored-pencil-on-paper artwork employs a full palette of mostly muted hues displayed on richly textured full-page spreads. A satisfying look at a life well lived." —Booklist★ "The story is simple yet profound, connecting elements of nature, city life, park walks, and scenes where human empathy develops as we grow with the image of a dog hoping to be adopted. It is ideal for engaging with children for a sensory story time at the emotional and age-appropriate intellectual level. A biography-like picture book that invites children to feel, sense, and respond to textual clues." —School Library Journal, starred review
