[ 책 소개 ]
미국의 대표적인 아동 문학 작가(뉴베리 수상)이자 수많은 우수한 그림책을 저술한 토미 드파올라의 어릴 적 경험에 바탕을 둔 그림책입니다. 2000년도 Newbery 수상작인 "26 Fairmount Avenue"에 소개된 내용중 일부를 그림책으로 재구성했습니다.
토미 드파올라가 4살때 이웃 2층집에 토미의 할머니와 증조할머니가 함께 살으셨지요. 토미는 윗층에 계셨던 증조할머니를 "Nana Upstairs"라고 불렀고, 아랫층에 계셨던 할머니를 "Nana Downstairs"라고 불렀죠. 이 책은 할머니와 관련된 재미있는 추억, 할머니의 죽음과 슬픔 등을 토미 드파올라의 부드러운 그림과 쉽고 간결한 문장으로 들려줍니다.

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.

Children's Literature
As a young boy, Tomie loved to visit his grandmother and great-grandmother. They lived in the same house and he called them Nana Upstairs and Nana Downstairs. During his Sunday visits with his great-grandmother, he would eat mint candy and listen to her stories about the "Little People." When she napped so did he, and to him she was a beautiful and wonderful woman. Then she died, but for Tomie, she would always live in his memories. The same was true of his grandmother who died many years later when Tomie was grown up. It is a heartwarming but sad story about love among the generations and facing the reality that death is part of the cycle of life. It is a gentle approach that can help children and encourage them upon the loss of a relative to hold and cherish those memories of wonderful times together. 1998 (orig. - Marilyn Courtot
Booklist
Ages 3^-7. Originally published in 1973, this autobiographical picture book was one of the first to introduce very young children to the concept of death. Given its graceful treatment of a difficult subject, it has been a parental staple ever since, and a new generations of readers will be glad to discover this timeless tale in a lovely new edition. In an appended note, dePaola says he approached this project "as a completely new book." Thus, the format is larger than formerly, the pictures have been re-done in full color, and even the text has been slightly modified, though the story remains the same: every Sunday four-year-old Tommy's family goes to visit his grandparents. His grandmother is always busy downstairs, but his great-grandmother is always to be found in bed upstairs, because she is 94 years old. Tommy loves both of his nanas and the time he spends with them. He is desolate when his upstairs nana dies, but his mother comforts him by explaining that "she will come back in your memory whenever you think about her." Although dePaola's book is a nostalgic tribute to his own family, its theme--that not only people but our love for them survives in our memories--is universally true and important. Michael Cart |
