Did you ever walk with ten cats on your head?" Such are the profound, philosophical queries posed in this well-loved classic by Theodor "Dr. Seuss" Geisel. While many rhymes in this couplet collection resemble sphinx-worthy riddles, Seuss's intention is clear: teach children to read in a way that is both entertaining and educational. It matters little that each wonderful vignette has nothing to do with the one that follows.
《一条鱼,两条鱼,红色的鱼,蓝色的鱼》是一本优秀的启蒙读物,不但可以教孩子学习颜色和数字,而且它会引发无穷的想象,带来无限的乐趣,让阅读变成一件兴高采烈的事情。他们甚至不会注意到自己竟然是在学习阅读。
这本书没有完整的故事情节,这一页的画面与下一页的画面可能毫无关系,但是从只有一个驼峰的七峰驼,到甘普先生,再到那些叫再再的头上只有一根毛的黄色乖乖,中间的跳跃流畅而自然。对于刚刚开始阅读的孩子来说,苏斯博士的书有点长,但是这本书,孩子每次可以只读一小部分,可以选择从他们喜欢的地方开始,这样做他们不会觉得厌倦,不会觉得无聊,也不会影响他们对故事的理解,这一点正是此书的魅力之所在。
