[ 책 소개 ]
국내에는 "소원을 들어주는 황금 사자"라는 제목으로 번역서가 출간된 명작 그림책입니다.
친구를 위해 자기 욕심을 포기할 줄 아는 용기와 배려의 기쁨을 환상적인 그림으로 빚어낸 그림책입니다. 흰 바탕에 검은색과 황금색이 멋스럽게 조화된 그레그 폴리의 그림은 독자를 압도할 만큼 환상적이며, 특히 윌러비의 소원이 이루어지는 장면에서 작가의 상상력이 극대화됩니다. 또한 황금색에 양각으로 무늬를 넣어 동전을 연상하게 하는 표지는 아이들의 시선을 사로잡습니다.
윌러비는 새로 이사 온 집이 마음에 들지 않습니다. 전에 살던 집보다 훨씬 작고, 친구들도 멀리 떨어져 있었거든요. 그런데 마법에 걸린 황금 사자를 만나고 소원들이 이루어집니다. 누구나 한번쯤 꿈꿔 보았던 여러 소원들을 말하고, 그것들을 다 갖게 됩니다. 하지만 세상에서 최고로 멋진 소원이 아니면 황금 사자는 영원히 바위 위에서 살아야 한다고 합니다. 이미 아홉 가지 소원을 말한 윌러비는 마지막 소원을 남겨 두고 고민합니다. 윌러비가 원했던 세상에서 최고로 멋진 소원은 과연 무엇일까요?

판지를 천이나 가죽으로 감싸기도 합니다. 책의 속지는 일반적으로 중성처리된 종이(Acid-free paper)를 사용해서 잘 변질이 되지 않기 때문에 오랫동안 보관하기에 적합합니다. 이 종류의 책은 더스트 재킷, 또는 더스트 커버로 불리는 표지덮개가 함께 있는 경우가 많습니다. 간혹 내부 속지가 콩기름 코팅이 된 경우 고약한 냄새가 나는 책도 있습니다.

Book Description
This is the story of Willoughby, whose new house feels too small and very lonely.
It's also the story of an enchanted lion and spectacular wishes come true: of roller coasters, and fast, fast shoes, and enormous crowds of people.
But most of all, it's the story of one important question: What is the most wonderful thing of all?
Award-winning author-illustrator Greg Foley grew up in Austin, Texas, and attended the Rhode Island School of Design. He now designs and creative-directs Visionaire, V Magazine, and VMAN and lives in Greenwich Village, New York. Willoughby & the Lion is the first book in the Willoughby series.
Publishers Weekly *Starred Review*
Foley (Thank You Bear) scores points for unique visual presentation in this sumptuously produced, two-color book, instantly distinguished by its heavily embossed jacket. Willoughby Smith has moved to a disappointing new home, pictured in a flimsy black line on an expanse of white. One day, Willoughby sees a lion perched on a boulder. Rendered in metallic gold ink, the lion shines, its gleam set off by the book's highly coated paper. The lion promises Willoughby 10 wishes but adds, Unless you wish for the most wonderful thing of all, I'll be stuck on this rock forever. Willoughby's first nine wishes benefit himself, from a palace shown in gold on black (it resembles a crisply engraved metal plate) to a hot-air-balloon-submarine, intricately diagrammed in white on gold. With every wish, the ratio of gold to gray increases and Foley's compositions, mingling line drawings with digitally manipulated b&w photos, become more complex. Brassy layers and a sprinkling of stars imply fantastic wealth, leavened with grayscale pixels; the elegant combination of the two basic colors boosts the visual impact exponentially. The 10th wish, whispered to the lion, finally reverses the acquisitive sequence; Foley implies selflessness at last, signaled by an expansive sunrise of gold lines against pure white, and a small gold coin labeled true friend (a removable facsimile is stored within the interior back cover). A second Willoughby title, about Willoughby and the moon, will use black and metallic silver ink.
School Library Journal
An embossed front cover, line drawings, and eye-popping black and gold and digital illustrations combine to produce a stunning visual representation of the brief text of this friendship story. Willoughby, dejected because of an unwanted move, sees a gold lion sitting on a rock in his backyard. The lion can grant him 10 wishes but warns: "unless you wish for the most wonderful thing of all, I'll be stuck on this rock forever." The boy wishes for a bigger house, a roller-coaster ride, the fastest shoes in the world, and many more delights. Each time, the lion complies on a grand scale. The house becomes a magnificent golden palace; the ride is provided by a giant black-and-gold roller coaster; the shoes are huge golden sneakers. Crowds stretching over a spread come to observe Willoughby and his amazing lion. But still, the youngster hasn't made the wish that will free the animal. He sits in black gloom as he dreams of running free, his longing represented by a golden spread of cavorting lions, their movement captured in flowing white outlines. Finally, an enlightened Willoughby whispers his most important wish to the lion and awakens the next morning to find his cozy house once again, the lion gone, and in his place, a gold coin with the words, "true friend." This wonderful offering is the first of several forthcoming stories about these two friends. |
