編輯推薦
適讀人群 :4-7歲 With the arrival of Martha, Lassie had best look to her canine laurels. This scintillating story weighs the pros and cons of owning a loquacious pet. Thanks to the apparently magical properties of alphabet soup, unassuming mutt Martha is transformed into the Mr. Ed of the canine world. Unfortunately, the novelty for her human family wears off in a hurry: Martha blabs non-stop and commits numerous gaffes--telling one visitor, "Mom said that fruitcake you sent wasn't fit for a dog. But I thought it was delicious." Meddaugh's ( The Witches' Supermarket ; Tree of Birds ) quirky take on the anthropomorphic pooch proves uproarious. Droll illustrations capture Martha's guileless expressions, her joy at the mastery of speech and her hurt feelings after she's commanded to pipe down. The book may be difficult to read aloud because Martha's not-to-be-missed comments, separate from the main narrative, interrupt the tale's flow. Still, anyone who's ever wondered what their pets are thinking will enjoy this imaginative book, its tactless but lovable main character and its triumphant ending. Ages 4-8.
內容簡介
When Helen Finney feeds alphabet soup to her dog, Martha, it goes straight up to her brain, and Martha begins to speak! But having a talking dog isn't always as much fun as it seems.

"Bright with watercolor washes, the cartoon-like ink drawings ensure that book's immediate appeal...A hysterical tail - er, tale."

我覺得這樣的閱讀不單是長知識,還對傢庭交流有很重要的作用,是維係傢庭成員關係、增進瞭解的橋梁和紐帶。孩子們在成長,他們對書裏內容的認知其實是對社會對傢庭認知的一種反映。通過不斷地溝通,即培養瞭全傢共同的興趣愛好,還使傢長能時刻瞭解孩子的價值取嚮,孩子也能瞭解大人的心理世界。
