這本書主要是作者在描寫在西印度的一個小鎮上,小孩子自由奔跑、遊玩、歌唱的快樂情形,彷彿是一個境外天堂一樣,同時配合簡單的韻文,讀者也可以充份的發揮想像力去體會那種快樂的情景。適合4歲以上兒童閱讀。Here is a place where children run, splash, and sing, on an island in the West Indies, in a world that is nothing short of magical. Rachel Isadora’s glowing watercolors and lyrical, evocative text celebrate the things that make the Caribbean a very special home. “The poetic text encourages the reader to visualize the meeting of the waves and the sand, wind and hill, song and soul, and to imagine the activities that follow.” – The Horn Book. |
