[ 서지 정보 ] Edition: Paperback: 128 pages ISBN-10: 0763629847 ISBN-13: 978-0763629847 책 크기 : 19.5cm x 13cm [ 영문 서평 ] Book Description Paul Fleischman spins three engrossing stories about the unexpected ways an artist's creations reveal truths - tales whose intriguing plots and many moods will entertain readers and inspire future writers. Can wood, copper, or marble communicate? They can if they are the graven images in Newbery Medalist Paul Fleischman's trio of eerie, beguiling short stories. If you whisper a secret into a wooden statue's ear, will anyone find out? Can a wobbly weathervane bearing the image of Saint Crispin, the patron saint of shoemakers, steer a love-struck apprentice toward the girl of his dreams? And if a ghost hires a sculptor to carve a likeness of him holding a drink to a baby's lips, what ghastly crime might lie behind his request? And, in a brand-new afterword, the acclaimed storyteller reveals how he found his own author's voice. Publishers Weekly Older readers will be delighted with the return to print of Newbery Honor book Graven Images: Three Stories (1982) by Paul Fleischman, with haunting new acrylic gouache illustrations by Bagram Ibatoulline, evoking the spinetingling aspects of this trio of tales about statues that seem to know and communicate secrets and desires. Via a new afterword, the author explains the stories' inspiration and describes this book's significance early in his career. Children's Literature First recognized in 1983 as a Newbery Honor Book, this trilogy of short stories remains timeless in theme and intrigue. Images come in the guise of power, love, and pride. Fast moving plots defy readers to put down the little volume until all are read. "The Binnacle Boy," wooden though he is, becomes the safe haven for village confessions, prayers, and dreams, until a deaf girl discovers his secrets. "Saint Crispin's Follower," reveals the sincere, though humorously misguided courtship of a lovely lass, but all ends happily. "The Man of Influence," haughty though he may be, learns dangerously late where real values lie, and prays for rain. Fleischman brings together compelling tales of human foibles with such charm that readers may serendipitously find themselves in the midst of learning profound lessons. |
