* New York Times Notable Book
* Washington Post Best Book of the Year
Caldecott 수상작인 Officer Buckle and Gloria를 비롯해서 Goodnight Gorilla, 10 Minutes Till Bedtime 등 베스트셀러 어린이 그림책의 저자인 Peggy Rathmann이 이전 작품들과는 달리 실루엣을 이용한 독창적인 기법을 시도한 재미있는 그림책입니다.
축제가 열리는 날, 언덕 위에 모인 마을 사람들은 파이먹기 대회에 빠져 있는 동안, 5명의 아기들이 나비들을 쫓아 멀리 멀리 기어갑니다. 소방관 모자를 쓴 소년만이 아기들이 멀리 기어가는 것을 발견하고는 이들을 구하러 쫓아가지요. 박쥐 동굴과 절벽과 늪지를 지나 마침내 5명의 아기들을 모두 따라 잡는데 성공했지만, 이번에는 배고픔과 갈증에 지친 아기들이 한꺼번에 울어대는군요. 천신만고 끝에 아기들을 무사히 데리고 온 소년은 마을의 영웅이 됩니다... 파스텔풍의 배경 하늘색이 미묘하게 변하면서 시간의 흐름을 보여줍니다.

Book Description
What a lovely day at the fair. Children lining up for pony rides...moms and dads in a pie-eating contest...babies chasing butterflies...babies heading for the trees...I SAY! Where are those babies GOING? Only a small boy sees them leaving and follows as the babies chase butterflies in trees, frogs in a bog, even bats in a cave, ignoring pleas to come back. But not to worry, our hero saves the day, making sure that all the babies get home safely from their appealing adventures.
Caldecott Medal winner Peggy Rathmann has created a highly original story told in a lilting text and a bold new style, with classic black silhouettes against stunning skies of many colors that change and glow as afternoon turns to evening.
The New York Times
The book itself is a pleasure, despite the hype. Rathmann does not let us down by resting on her artistic laurels and repeating herself. She is a real illustrator, who believes that pictures should illuminate, animate and follow the words that inspire them. For this reasonable reason, each of her books has a different look. This latest -- Rathmann calls it a ''ballad'' about a young child who saves five babies from running off on the day of a fair -- makes perfect material for a sentimental journey into the art of silhouetting.
The Washington Post
Sweet, funny, original and stunningly beautiful picture book...What makes the book special is the illustrations of the babies' adventures, all done in diamond-sharp black silhouette against a sky that deepens from cloudy blue through saffron-green, orange and pink to luminous violet, as night falls, and babies and heroic rescuer alike snuggle up with their moms.
Publishers Weekly
Rathmann (Officer Buckle and Gloria) makes an innovative departure from her usual prose and pictures in this rollicking rhyming tale, illustrated in needle-sharp, atmospheric silhouettes against twilight skies. The initial spreads picture a lively neighborhood picnic and pie-eating contest with fluttering banners and an all-ages crowd. In voiceover, a parent reminisces about how "you" represented here as a boy in a firefighter's helmet had to "save the day ... When the babies crawled away!" The speaker admits she was caught off-guard: "We moms and dads were eating pies, The babies saw some butterflies And what do you know? Surprise! Surprise! The babies crawled away!" The adults do not witness their five babies' escape. But the alert boy notices, vainly tugs at his mother's shirt, then chases the runaways into a thicket: "You hollered, `Hey! You babies, stay!' But none of them did. And some of them hid." The babies' shadowy figures never seem endangered; they blend with the tangled shapes of the branches, creating a hide-and-seek puzzle for their pursuer and for readers. Yet the boy senses their peril and consistently comes to the rescue. Rathmann's signature palette of zingy pink, lemon yellow and robin's egg blue deepen to sunset colors that imply time is tight; the flattened foreground includes a hillside with every blade of grass in stark relief, and the cavorting shapes of the children. Rathmann's poem never misses a beat, and her triumphant finale does not pass judgment on the parents; instead she praises the sleepy, baby-wrangling hero.
Children's Literature
On the day of the fair the moms and dads were so busy eating pies they never noticed the babies had crawled away. But a young fella in a fireman's hat tries to get them to stay. When they don't, he follows them as they "crawl in the trees chasing bees" and "in a bog chasing frogs." He saves them through several trials and tribulations and returns them safely home. He is rewarded with cheers and pies from the moms and dads, and his own mother's warm, secure lap where he falls fast asleep. The landscape and people are all in black silhouette against a beautiful sunny blue sky. Near the horizon are shades of pale green and yellow that change to orange and purple by the end of the day. The pictures are a continuous flow from page to page as the babies crawl down, them up another hill, out onto a dead tree branch and overlook a cliff. Rathmann then provides a panoramic view of the entire area and shows our little hero as he leads the babies back to their parents. The combination of drama and playfulness in the rhyming text comes through beautifully as one reads it aloud. The illustrations carry through this same drama/playfulness and add another dimension to the text. Only the best picture books provide the great satisfaction one finds throughout this adventure. For some additional fun, look for Officer Buckle and Gloria on the title page. 2003, G P Putnam's Sons, Ages 3 to 7. - Sharon Salluzzo
School Library Journal
A pint-sized do-gooder goes to great lengths to round up a bunch of renegade babies who have wandered off and returns them to their parents. Marvelous backlit silhouettes convey the drama and the humor in this sublime slice of inspired silliness. |
