內容簡介
內容簡介 搖椅上的愛與傳承一對年輕夫妻,站在一排排的椅子前,為寶寶的房間,尋找理想的椅子。這張椅子,不只是家具,更是情感交流的重心。在這裡,媽媽偎著寶寶輕唱搖籃曲,爸爸摟著孩子唸讀故事。隨著孩子成長,椅子上開始堆滿玩具,漸漸不能坐人,而被束之高閣,與堆塵為伍。終於,孩子長大了,有了伴,結了婚,生了北鼻,想起那張伴他兒時許久的椅子,於是這張椅子又有了小寶寶和爸爸媽媽的光臨,再度傳承著世代家庭的回憶。Leo Dillon ﹙《為什麼蚊子老在人們耳邊嗡嗡叫》作者﹚和 Diane Dillon夫妻牽手合作超過半個世紀,得獎無數,這是夫妻倆合作最後一本,題材便取自自家的搖椅。Two-time Caldecott Medalists Leo and Diane Dillon celebrate the love we feel for our children in this touching, multi-generational story about the lasting power of family. Simple words and colorful paintings tell the warm, engaging story of new parents who buy a rocking chair when they are expecting a baby. Bright, sunny illustrations show the precious intimacy between parents and their children; the new mother glows with affection, and the new father reads aloud to their young son. Time passes, and the boy grows up; the beloved rocker is moved to the attic and gathers dust. But when the boy becomes a man, the cycle begins anew. He and his wife have a baby girl, and the rocking chair is needed again. Legendary artists Leo and Diane Dillon are two of the greatest illustrators of our time. This is their final collaboration, inspired by their own rocking chair. It is a tender tribute to the enduring power of family love-passed from generation to generation. Here is a book for all ages to cherish. It serves as a loving reminder of those who have gone before us-and those who are still to come."
