[ 책 소개 ]
열렬한 매니아 독자층까지 만들어 내는 Anthony Browne의 특성이 고스란히 드러나는, 감상할 가치가 있는 작품입니다.
아빠가 없는 집은 소년에게는 너무나도 쓸쓸합니다. 한 밤에 천둥번개가 쳐서 잠에서 깨어났을 때도, 아침 식사 시간에 텅빈 아빠자리를 볼 때도 소년은 너무나도 아빠가 그립습니다. 엄마는 케익이 들어 있는 바구니를 산 너머에 사시는 할머니에게 전해 드리라고 심부름을 시킵니다. 산 속의 숲길은 위험하므로 멀리 돌아 가라고 신신당부를 하지요. 하지만 소년은 아빠가 오시기 전에 심부름을 마치고 집으로 돌아가려고 산 속의 지름길로 향합니다.
산 속에서 소년은 동화 속의 주인공들을 만납니다. 잭, 헨젤과 그레텔, 골디락, 그리고 레드 라이딩 후드... 그 외에서 숲 속에는 동화 속의 장면들이 환상인지 실제인지 모르게 숨어 있습니다. 나무들 속에는 온갖 동물들도 마치 숨은 그림 찾기를 하듯 몸을 숨기고 있습니다. 빨간 망토를 주워 입고, 늑대 이야기를 생각해 낸 소년은 두려움 속에서 마침내 할머니 집에 도착합니다. 문을 두드리자 들려오는 왠지 낮선 목소리... 소년은 할머니로 변장한 늑대를 생각해 냅니다. 하지만 문을 열고 들어서자 소년을 반기는 것은 언제나 환하게 미소 짓는 할머니, 그리고 더욱 소년을 기쁘게 해 준 것은 뒤에서 들리는 아빠 목소리...
이 책을 읽으면서 느낄 수 있는 감정은... 일단 쓸쓸함으로 출발해서, 환타지를 느끼면서, 점차 긴박감이 높아지다가, 마침내 환희로 마무리 짓는... 결론적으로 무척 재미있는 책입니다. 언제 Anthony Browne의 그림책을 보면서 겪는 일이지만 그림 속에 숨어 있는 또 다른 그림들을 찾는 재미도 솔솔합니다. 그러니 어찌 Anthony Browne의 책을 좋아하지 않을 수 있을까요...
영국에서 출간된 Anthony Browne의 오리지널판이며, 큰 사이즈의 | 닫기x |  What is 페이퍼백?
표지가 두꺼운 판지나 보드지가 아닌 비교적 얇은 종이를 사용해서 만든 책이며, 실박음질 대신에 풀로 제본처리하는 경우가 많습니다. 일반적으로 하드커버나 보드북에 비해서 가격이 저렴합니다. 소프트커버로 불리우기도 합니다. 책의 이음새 부분이 접히거나 휘는 내구성이 그리 좋지는 않은 책입니다.

Book Description
An atmospheric exploration of a child's anxiety by the 2000 Hans Christian Andersen Medal Winner. One night a boy is woken by a terrible sound. A storm is breaking, lightning flashing across the sky. In the morning Dad is gone and Mum doesn't seem to know when he'll be back. The next day Mum asks her son to take a cake to his sick grandma. "Don't go into the forest," she warns. "Go the long way round." But, for the first time, the boy chooses to take the path into the forest, where he meets a variety of fairy tale characters and discovers the fate of his father.
Publisher's Weekly
The tenor of Browne's (The Shape Game; My Dad) latest multifaceted tale moves purposefully and effectively from foreboding to reassuring. Browne builds an aura of uneasiness from the first scene, in which a boy awakens in the night to "a terrible sound" and lightening flashing outside his window; a one-legged toy soldier stands by his bed. At the seemingly vast breakfast table, he discovers that his father is not at home ("I asked Mom when he was coming back, but she didn't seem to know"). The next day, Mom asks him to take a cake to his sick Grandma and he cuts through the forbidden forest, since he wants to get home quickly in case his father returns. Browne pictures the ominous forest in deep brown and white tones; only the basket-toting boy (who finds a hooded red coat hanging from a tree just as he grows cold) appears in color. Increasingly anxious, he encounters four children (whom experienced readers will recognize from fairytales)-two of whom have missing parents. The finale resolves all of the hero's worries, however, and restores the boy, Grandma and his own missing parent to a vibrant palette. Characteristically, Browne uses color, light and shadow in his pencil and watercolor artwork to dramatic effect, and incorporates copious particulars that readers may miss on the first pass (the forest hides many surprises). Adults caring for youngsters coping with anxiety may find that walking them through this protean story is quite therapeutic.
School Library Journal
After a stormy night, a boy awakens to find his father gone. The child misses him terribly, though the specifics of his whereabouts are unstated. When the boy's mother asks him to take a basket to Grandma, who is not feeling well, she warns him not to take the shortcut through the forest. Worried that he might not be home when Dad returns, the child disobeys. Starkly illustrated in black and white, with color used to highlight the boy, this forest is quite ominous. The trees are full of spikes as he enters, and gnarled with faces that loom over him on ensuing pages. The boy encounters a variety of recognizable, if a bit mean, fairy-tale characters-Jack trying to sell his cow, Hansel and Gretel, and a selfish Goldilocks. He even finds a red coat, completing his transformation as Red Riding Hood. Recalling a story his grandmother told him about a bad wolf, the boy is terrified to open her door. Yet in a surprisingly reassuring twist, he finds his comforting Grandma, who's feeling better, and also his dad. Browne's text is deceptively short, leaving much room for interpretation. As usual, his hyperrealistic, pencil-and-watercolor illustrations are full of rich details. Each child may take something different from this psychological picture book, but the reassuring ending is especially comforting. It is possible to go into the forest of dreams/the imagination and emerge even stronger.
Kirkus Reviews
A little boy's anxieties over his absent father channel themselves into a deeply metaphorical journey through a fairy-tale forest to Grandma's. A one-legged toy soldier in the opening panel hints at a military absence, although the reason for the father's disappearance is never articulated. The story moves from the concrete to the symbolic when he's sent to Grandma's with a cake. Into a tangled black-and-white forest he ventures, against his mother's admonition. On his way, he meets a boy selling a cow, a hungry yellow-haired girl, and two lost children; in addition to the obvious fairy-tale references, Browne sprinkles other elements-a key, a spinning wheel, a tower-into the surreal, terrifyingly twisted landscape. When the boy gets to Grandma's, he finds both Grandma and Dad, a happy but supremely illogical reunion entirely consistent with a very small child's direct desire for solutions, not explanations. The literary allusions, however, require an older audience-one that may well not be satisfied with the easy ending. Not as whole, perhaps, as Outside Over There, but a fine, unsettling evocation of emotion nevertheless. |
