Newbery Medal 수상작인 Missing May의 저자이며, Caldecott 수상작인 When I Was Young in the Mountains와 The Relatives Came를 비롯해서 수많은 그림책과 리더스시리즈(Henry And Mudge, Poppleton 등)의 저자인 Cynthia Rylant의 아름다운 문장이 돋보이는 그림책입니다. 11월이 되면... 대지는 점점 조용한 적막 속에 빠져들고, 꽃 들과 조그만 동물들이 그 속에서 겨울을 보낼 잠자리가 만들어 집니다. 나무들은 마치 댄서와 같이 앙상한 가지를 흔듭니다. 떠나는 새들과 남는 새들은 굿바이 인사를 나누며, 무사히 겨울을 나기를 기원합니다. 날이 점점 추워지면서, 농장의 동물들은 서로의 체온을 나눕니다. 하지만 집 안에는 1년 중 가장 향기로운 음식 냄새가 가득하지요. 그리고 멀리 떨어져 지내던 친지들이 모여서 서로 가져온 음식을 나눠 먹으며 식탁 위에 차려진 풍성한 음식과 팔에 안겨 잠든 아기와 같이 지난 1년간 신이 내려주신 은총에 감사를 드립니다... 아름다운 유화그림과 문장이 멋진 조화를 이루는 책입니다. [ 서지 정보 ] Edition: Paperback: 32 pages ISBN-10: 0152063420 ISBN-13: 978-0152063429 책 크기: 25.4 cm x 22.8 .5cm [ 영문 서평 ] Book Description Newbery Medalist Cynthia Rylant pays homage to this special time of year. In November, the air grows cold and the earth and all of its creatures prepare for winter. Animals seek food and shelter. And people gather together to celebrate their blessings with family and friends. Cynthia Rylant's lyrical language and Jill Kastner's rich, cozy paintings capture the cherished moments of this autumn month--the moments we spend together and the ones we witness in the world around us. Children's Literature November is an in-between time, a time when the air grows colder and nights grow longer. It's a time when the earth and all of its creatures prepare for the oncoming winter. It's a time of harvest and thanksgiving, when people gather together to celebrate their blessings with family and friends. All of this, and more, are captured within the pages of this captivating hardcover picture book. Rylant's words are plainspoken and poetic, crisp as an autumn apple. Kastner's luscious oil paintings are rendered with bold, loose strokes in a traditional fall palette—rich reds, warm browns, soft yellows, bright oranges and frosty whites. Words and pictures work well together, and the overall effect is one of calm, peaceful transition from one season to the next. A great read-aloud for classroom or home. School Library Journal A poetic text reflects on the month when "the earth is growing quiet." A friendly mouse draws readers into the book by peeking from under a leaf on the cover and title page, scurrying across the dedication page and onto the first spread, and then disappearing. Birds and animals experience the cold, which causes the cows to sleep and the horses to shiver; bees hibernate in "deep, earthy holes-And dogs lie before the fire." A large extended family visits and shares a meal to give thanks, then travels home at night. The well-paced, skillfully painted oil-on-paper paintings are mostly full spreads. Dramatic angles, strong composition, and interesting perspectives enhance the descriptive text. Although not as colorful and appealing as Lois Ehlert's Red Leaf, Yellow Leaf (Harcourt, 1991) or as funny and entertaining as Dav Pilkey's `Twas the Night Before Thanksgiving (Orchard, 1990), this book establishes the mood and feel of November. It is an agreeable storytime companion to the above titles, helpful for classrooms wishing to explore the month using their senses, and satisfying for one-on-one sharing. Kirkus Reviews A gentle hymn to an autumn month. Starting with the landscape and moving on to animals, then people, Rylant's voice describes the scene in immediate terms: leafless trees "lovely . . . spreading their arms like dancers"; birds that fly away and those that stay know "all berries will be treasures." Cats sleep in barn corners and dogs before the fire. In November, an "orange smell" of squash and pumpkin and cinnamon fills the house: people come to share and to give thanks "at winter's gate." The brief, evocative text sits on full-page, oil-on-paper paintings. Broad, thick brushstrokes capture the sturdy horses, the little mice, and the country landscape from gray to brown to snowy white. The multigenerational family is clearly delighted to be together. A quiet, pre-holiday gift. |
