[ 책 소개 ]
Snowflake Bentley로 Caldecott 상을 수상한 Mary Azarian 특유의 목판화 그림이 돋보이는 아름다운 그림책입니다.
1년 4계절 12달 동안 저자가 시골에서 자라면서 겪었던 아름다운 추억들을 간결한 문장과 아름다운 그림으로 보여줍니다.
봄이 오기 전, 아직 눈이 덮여 있는 늦겨울에, 마을 사람들은 단풍나무에서 수액을 받아서 메이플 시럽을 만듭니다. 날이 풀리고 눈이 녹으면서 길이 온통 질퍽질퍽한 진흙밭으로 변하면 아이들은 장화를 신고 진흙탕 속에서 자전거를 타면서 신나게 놀지요. 날이 따뜻해 지면서 진흙이 마르면, 소떼를 가둘 수 있도록 넓은 들판 위에 말뚝을 박고 길다란 울타리를 칩니다. 그리고 밤에는 연못에 가서 낚시를 하지요....
봄, 여름, 가을, 겨울... 계절의 변화에 따라 농촌에서 어떤 일들을 하는지를 하나하나 보여주며, 다양한 놀이를 하면서 신나고 재미있는 추억을 만들어 나가는 아이들의 농촌 생활도 정감넘치게 보여줍니다.
비교적 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
Chopping wood in the fall, hauling sap buckets in the spring, and weeding, howing, and weeding again in the summer: That is life on a farm in the north. It is also seven months of snow; sloppy, impossible mud season; and hot days of haying. Who would miss growing up in such a place?
A love of life and a love of place shines through in Natalie Kinsey-Warnock's richly imagined prose. Illustrated with Mary Azarian's beautiful woodcuts, this book reveals
how chores lead straight to the best kind of fun: night-swimming in the pond, skiing off the barn roof, and finding new gray kittens in the haymow with their eyes still closed. And at story's end, readers from cities, towns, and the country will ask themselves, What would we miss most about our home?
Publishers Weekly
As her brothers and sisters argue about where they want to move when they grow up, the narrator asks her siblings to think of all the things they'd miss. When her brothers retort, "Who'd miss sugaring?" Kinsey-Warnock (A Farm of Her Own) describes the steps involved in collecting the sap and making it into syrup while Azarian's (Snowflake Bentley) full-spread woodcut illustration shows the family in the sugarhouse, snacking on aunt Eunice's doughnuts as they wait for the sap to boil. Season by season, the author (who bases the volume on her own memories) recounts the activities they share-looking for newborn kittens in the haymow, rescuing neighbors' trucks during the "mud season"-each one conveying a sense of family and community togetherness. The brothers' quips keep the narrative from becoming sentimental ("Even you wouldn't miss picking stone," her brothers say, reminding her of their least favorite spring chore). The author and artist remain on this side of nostalgia by grounding the story in a great deal of specific details about farming and the rhythms of nature. Concluding photos underscore the story's authenticity. Most readers will be not at all surprised to learn, at story's end, that the author and all of her siblings have remained in Vermont to carry on their family traditions.
School Library Journal
"My brothers and sister and I grew up on a farm of steep, wooded hills and fields with rocks as big as your head." During the long Vermont winter, the young narrator and her brothers argue about moving away when they grow up. The discussion begins during a gathering around the wood stove and ranges over days and nights and through the seasons as the girl recounts things they all do during the year, some that they might miss, and some that they'd be glad to leave behind. Maple sugaring numbs the hands and feet with bone-chilling cold, but they all love the taste of the maple candy and their aunt's doughnuts. The muddy spring followed by fence building and clearing stones from the field, hot days of haying and evenings of fishing for supper, the planting of vegetables and the harvest, and skiing right off the barn roof all unfold in the spare narrative and hand-tinted woodcuts. Azarian uses both facing scenes and full-spread views to create a fine sense of people and place. The cheerful view of family and farm comes round to the Christmas pageant at church, and a final page reveals where the siblings and cousins live as adults. It's all a bit nostalgic but the story will surely strike a familiar chord in many families, and it should be eye-opening to readers for whom life on a farm is quite different from their own experiences.
From Booklist
Farm work, hard work. But there is also lots of fun in this remembrance of growing up 40 years ago on a Vermont farm in which Kinsey-Warnock recalls her siblings laughing at her and her love of her life. Who would miss long hot days of haying and bone-chilling days of sugaring maple trees? The author's memories are not idealized as she takes children through the year, explaining how much work is involved during each season on a farm. Mud, snow, and weeds all make work more difficult. In late spring, stones, large and small, stud the fields; each one has to be picked up by hand. Each arduous task is followed by a hearty helping of good times. Hay bales in the barn are for sleeping. After sugaring comes maple syrup and sugar on snow. This pattern of pairing descriptions of farm chores with rewards is effective, and Caldecott Medal-winner Azarian extends the story with effective woodcuts that capture life at its busiest and most fun. Children may be lost at first when it comes to a time frame, but the photographs in the miniscrapbook concluding the text help turn fiction into fact by showing the author and the illustrator, who lived on a farm in Virginia, in their rural milieus. |
