這本書跟” The Carrot Seed” 有異曲同工之妙，內容主要在描寫一顆蛋在未孵化之前不會講話，也沒有任何的生命，可是一旦破蛋而出變成了一隻小鳥之後，整個情形就會完全改變了喔！配合Crockett Johnson 的插畫，讓這個簡單的故事變得更加生動有趣了。適合4歲以上兒童閱讀。When a little bird is inside an egg, it cannot walk, it cannot sing, and it cannot fly. All it can do is be sat on. But when the time is just right: “ Pop!”---out it comes, And then a little bird can do almost anything!
With the same insightful simplicity of their classic “The Carrot Seed” Ruth Krauss and Crockett Johnson celebrate the promise and confidence of little birds ( and young children ) everywhere. |
