內容簡介

When George the giant spies a shop full of wonderful clothes, he decides to treat himself to a new outfit. He puts on his new shirt, pants, shoes, and tie, and is immediately transformed from the scruffiest giant in town to the spiffiest giant in town. But on his way home, George runs into various animals who need his help. And little by little, George finds himself giving away all his new purchases.
From the creators of Room on the Broom, this is a lively tale that reminds readers that sometimes it's what's inside a person-or a giant-that matters most.

精彩書評

PreSchool-Grade 3-In a place where giants and "regular sized" people coexist peacefully, George has a problem. He is "the scruffiest giant in town" until he finds a new clothing shop and buys himself some new duds. However, his days of being the spiffiest giant in town are numbered because he is so kindhearted. As he sings a little tune to himself about looking so fine, he runs into needy creatures. Soon George has given up his striped tie to warm a giraffe's neck, a shoe to house a mouse family, his shirt to a goat that needs a sail for its boat, and so on until he has to retrieve his old rags. Finally, he is offered a crown and the title "the kindest giant in town" by his appreciative beneficiaries. Scheffler's brightly colored, animated cartoons, done in pencil, ink, watercolors, colored pencils, and crayons, are perfect for this offbeat story of generosity. Good for collections needing books about being kind to others.

有人說，夜鶯為瞭學生而獻齣心血，令玫瑰染上血紅，綻開絕美的花瓣，可是學生卻在被女孩拒絕之後心灰意冷地丟棄玫瑰，這讓他們感覺不值，感覺夜鶯太可悲。可是，在我看來，夜鶯並不是可悲的。如果站在夜鶯的角度來看待整個故事，能為所愛之人付齣自己能夠付齣的最大代價，這本身就是一種幸福。再加之夜鶯本就不求任何迴報，又有什麼遺憾的呢？隻要自己心甘情願，哪怕對方並不知曉，也並不是件可悲的事情吧。這樣偉大的覺悟，就個人而言，完全可以與安徒生筆下的海的女兒媲美。 　　 又有人認為，故事中的女孩過於勢利，可是換個角度來看待，女孩也沒有過錯。這個世界本就物欲橫流，麵包比水仙花更容易吸引人去追逐。寶石的閃亮掩蓋瞭玫瑰的淒艷，女孩的舉動雖讓人能夠理解，卻更覺得無奈。 　　 窮學生最終從中悟齣瞭道理：“在現實的世界裏，首要的是實用。”這種領悟我們不能說不對，但卻為之感到悲哀，少年還未體會愛情的美妙滋味，就已經被情所傷，隻能迴到他的“哲學和玄學書”的世界中去，將自己的性靈囚禁在高高的象牙塔中，不再接觸世事。這固然不會再受到傷害，但也不能再親身去品味人世滄桑，去瞭解復雜多樣的人性……由此而言，學生纔是故事中最悲哀的角色。 　　 在整個童話集中，我最喜歡的童話實際上是《巨人的花園》。 　　 世人稱這篇童話是王爾德所著九篇童話中最美的一篇。王爾德是英國唯美主義藝術運動的開創者，《巨人的花園》就充斥著明顯的唯美情調和宗教氛圍。 無論是小孩們攀上樹枝使得花開滿樹、鶯啼燕舞，抑或是巨人死在大樹之下，身上覆滿瞭白花，這些唯美的情景都有中世紀油畫般的典雅精緻，和天主教對死亡意義的神聖追溯。 王爾德在這個故事裏，似乎僅僅傳達著一種“善有善報”的因果論，但是實際上，更多的反而是在體現某種宗教情結。故事中，巨人最喜歡的小孩——手掌和腳掌上分彆都有一清晰的釘子印——他是耶穌的化身，是神的孩子，令巨人顫抖下跪，發自內心地敬畏喜愛，並在他的指引下，靈魂前往這個小孩的花園——天堂。 1900年，王爾德在自己友人的幫助下，改信天主教。也許，這篇童話早早地便預示瞭這樣的結果吧。 《快樂王子》也是讓人讀後忍不住落淚的美妙之作。這個故事中的王子雕像與小燕子身上都存在著一種崇高偉大、無私忘我的精神特質。王子將自己身上的寶石和金子委托給燕子，讓他送給那些需要這些東西的人們——也許是窮睏潦倒的戲作傢，也許是賣不齣火柴的小女孩，也許是那些忍飢挨餓的乞丐
