Overview / 简介: |
| PreSchool-Grade 2-Pencil drawings on ivory paper accompany a simple text that describes the author's baby, Suki, month by month, from her birth to her first birthday. Although the book mimics a photo album, it is much more than that. The illustrations are amazing in their simplicity, managing to capture small moments in meticulous detail. Suki's personality grows along with her size, and as her world expands, McCarty portrays her lying on the grass; sitting on the beach with her mother hovering over her; and standing next to an ottoman, turning around to reveal eyes wide in amazement at her own achievement. Finally, on her first birthday, she poses in her special dress and then, on the next page, takes her first step. There is little story here, but the pictures are outstanding and radiate love on every page. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
| Youngsters can observe, month by month, the first year of a little one's life in this tender tribute to babyhood, designed like a handsome family album. Based on the author's recollections of his own daughter, the soft, finely detailed pencil sketches evoke the realism of black-and-white photographs, deftly capturing every nuance in a series of expressive poses. Baby Suki is a charmer, whether sitting quietly in a bouncy chair observing the world around her, napping under a blanket with hands closed into dimpled fists, playing at the beach or standing with a bit of support. Children will enjoy watching her development as they learn how they themselves matured. McCarty's pared-down prose, as adept as his artwork, chronicles his daughter's changes from a one-day-old infant swaddled tightly in a blanket ("We call her our little burrito") through a stage at two months when she demands to be held in the air ("With her fat cheeks and pink pajamas, she looks like a flying piglet") to her first steps as a one-year-old ("Go, Suki, go!"). A prime choice for lap-time read-alouds, this winsome picture book should evoke fond memories from parents while prompting enthusiastic recognition in toddlers. Ages 3-up. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| I was drawn to this book by the picture on the cover. It was absolutely beautiful! When I picked it up and read it, I felt as if the author, Peter McCarty had written it about my daughter's first year. It is every baby's story (more or less), and every baby (and parent) will love looking at the beautiful sketches. |
