內容簡介
內容簡介 凱迪克大獎銀牌、西奧多.蘇斯.蓋澤爾獎銀牌雙重肯定 金獎大師凱文.漢克斯最新作品 他們五個在一起,等待著…身上有圓點的貓頭鷹等待著月亮。撐著雨傘的小豬等待著雨。拿著風箏的小熊等待著風。雪橇上的小狗等待著雪。身上有星星的兔子,沒有特別在等什麼。他只是喜歡看著窗外,等待著。給孩子,也給大人的圖畫書。《等待》幫助讀者發現,這個看似安靜的過程也可以是「目的」,等待也可以充滿新奇、詩意與美好,令人期待。 等待,是每個孩子成長必經的過程,也是一個父母親有時難以和孩子分享、討論的主題。凱文.漢克斯再次發揮魔術師一般的深厚功力,以詩一般的文字、細膩的圖像,和每一位讀者分享「等待」。 Look at the owl and the pig and the bear and the puppy and the rabbit.What do you think they’re waiting for? Something wonderful? A visitor? A surprise? Maybe they’re waiting for you!"
