內容簡介

內容簡介 希望 夢裡，小小的我，被喚醒。爸爸、媽媽、弟弟、剛出生的小嬰兒還有我，我們要到很遠很遠的新家。能帶走的家當，全都帶走了。夜黑風高，惡浪洶湧。我們人擠人，搭著小船，飄洋過海，向熟悉的一切說再見。漫漫長路，是希望，支撐著一路的顛簸—我希望，路程，短一點，海，平靜一點，太陽涼爽一點；我希望，食物袋深一點，燈，亮一點；希望好夢，長一點，夜晚，安靜一點—希望，家近一點。越南作家依據真實經驗創作，文字如詩般簡短，配上深刻人心的插畫，話不多，畫面卻深植腦海。 An arresting, poetic journey and a moving reflection on immigration, family, and home, from an acclaimed creative team. Wishes tells the powerful, honest story about one Vietnamese family's search for a new home on the other side of the world, and the long-lasting and powerful impact that makes on the littlest member of the family. Inspired by actual events in the author's life, this is a narrative that is both timely and timeless. Told through the eyes of a young girl, the story chronicles a family's difficult and powerful journey to pack up what they can carry and to leave their world behind, traveling to a new and unknown place in a crowded boat. With sparse, poetic, and lyrical text from acclaimed author Muon Thi Van, thoughtful back matter about the author's connection to the story, and luminous, stunning illustrations from Forbes 30 Under 30 honoree Victo Ngai, Wishes tells a powerful and timely story in a gentle and approachable way for young children and their families. With themes of kindness, bravery, hope, and love running throughout, Wishes is a must-have book for every child's bookshelf."
