Re: 分享外國或台灣童書收穫

Another meaningful story from Eric Carle!!

[size=small]Why Noah Chose the Dove (Hardcover)
by Isaac Bashevis Singer, Eric Carle (Illustrator), Elizabeth Shub (Translator)

5 starred. When the people of the world sinned, and God chose the only righteous man, Noah, to build an ark, all of the animals gathered around. They, however, believed that Noah would only pick best of all the living creatures. The animals began to boast and argue amongst each other. "I am the largest," said the Elephant. "I am man's best friend," replied the dog. They argued and argued.
Noah noticed one lonely bird sitting in a tree. Noah asked the small, white dove why he did not boast. The Dove replied that he believed that everyone has something special, that another doesn't. Though, all are equally created by God.
Noah took all of the animals on the ark, but when he needed a `messenger' to see if the waters were going down, the one he chose was the dove. The dove is a bird of humility and peace.
I believe that this story is good for those of all ages. It teaches a lesson to all; we are all equally created. People should remain humble.
It is excellently written and has amazing illustrations. I recommend this story to all. It is definitely worth reading.

The book tells you why Noah chose Dove to be the one to look for land first. Dove is the bird of peace!

Re: 分享外國或台灣童書收穫

Another lovely book about body science!!!

[size=small]The Gas We Pass: The Story of Farts (My Body Science) (Hardcover)
by Shinta Cho, Amanda Mayer Stinchecum (Translator)
Both informative and blunt, the book provides young readers with solid facts as well as plenty to snicker about, including some sage advice ("Don't hold them in-pass that gas!") that will send parents everywhere running for the air freshener. Ages 18 mos.-4 yrs.
A simplistic explanation of human and animal flatulence. The text adequately tells how gas is formed and its characteristics, although it overlooks the role of dairy products in its formation. A basic diagram shows the passage of food and air through the body. The drearily colored, amateur line cartoons depict a family of no particular race and zoo animals with sound balloons, such as "BURP!" and "BAAROOMM" being emitted from both ends.

Until reading this book, I don't know that we will release 3.5 oz of gas per furt!!! An average of 17 oz in total per person.

A healthy book on the gas we pass !!

Bluestar:

I have a new question again for your advice.

Always read about some kinds of toys (in English story books) called 'jacks'. They look like a 3-D star or spider. What are they? Not aware of such toy items in Chinese society bor.

我時時係機靈狗故事樂園第2和3輯見到這些'jacks'咖！

Wish to know what they are so that I can explain to my kid.

Itchy head about this!!?!?!??!

GloriaChung >之前係圖書館借過中文版o既"YOUR BELLYBUTTON", 十分有趣!!好似叫"我的肚臍",中文版系列一共4本,不過再搵唔到其他LA!!

因為我個仔問過肚臍是甚麼/有甚麼用，約2年前在幼兒園家長會時有小小圖書展，買了"我的肚臍"這本書。

後來在圖書館借過以下這2本同系列的書:
兒童保健圖畫書 - 今天要打預防針 (J 429.2 9480)
兒童保健圖畫書 - 把身體挺直 (J 391.3 9480)
跨世紀文化公司，小樹苗教育出版社

但要注意，圖書館以subject排列，並非放在一起。
整個系列好像有6本書。

最近係圖書館睇到呢本"嗯嗯"本都幾得意ga。

可愛的小鼴鼠頭頂了一坨黃黃的「嗯嗯」，要去找出到底是誰的傑作。它先到不同的動物，懷疑對方。「嗯嗯」的主人時，動物不慌不忙的排便，以證明自己不是那「嗯嗯」的主人。透過偵探的情節，最後終於找到了「兇手」，而出人意表的結局更帶出原諒和接納。

Re: 分享外國或台灣童書收穫

Gloria,

Back to your "jacks" again.

If not jack-in-the-box, could they be some kind of jack-like object for counting points in games ?
i.e. looks like the jacks used for keeping a car up when you want to change the wheels, ==> several-footed spider-like, kids can use to 計分，or ascertain position of player in board games like snakes-and-ladders ???

Not found in dictionary.
