Overview / 简介: |
| The grass may be greener in the country, and the carpets softer in the city, but--as the two amiable mouse couples in Brett's rich interpretation of the timeless fable finally resolve--"There's no place like home." Brett's ( The Mitten ; Trouble with Trolls ) version of how they arrive at their wise conclusion serves up a sumptuous visual feast. The art on each double-page spread (alternately devoted to urban and rural settings) is brimming with droll details; exquisite patterns appear on clothing, china and rugs; and imaginative borders range from silk cord to pottery shards to dandelions. The text also conveys the culture gap between the city and the country mice with a good deal of humor. When she feels a raindrop on her head, the city-mouse wife asks, "Is the bathtub leaking?"; and her natty husband proudly dons a new jacket ("so colorful and eye-catching"), not realizing that it will indeed catch a creature's eye--that of a large owl whose greedy clutches he barely escapes. Bound to be a standout among the season's picture book offerings. Ages 4-8. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| This is the first book I've seen by Jan Brett. The story was so well written that my daughter, aged 4, and I would have thoroughly enjoyed the book even without the pictures. But those pictures! Each time we read the book, we find some new aspect of the illustrations to focus on and enjoy. We checked this book out of our library, and will have to return it soon. But my daughter will receive her own copy for her birthday this December. If you want to present your child with excellent story-telling, as well as beautiful artwork, this one's a must-buy. |
