英语儿童故事书

1、《The Sea-Thing Child》

作者赫班是位定居在伦敦的美国作家，他创作的儿童读物中经常蕴含着复杂但深刻的主旨。这本栩栩如生的图画书一开始就十分具有戏剧性：一个外貌奇怪、长得像鸟的孩子，在一个风雨飘摇的漆黑夜晚，被洋流卷到了荒芜空旷的海滩上。

整个故事的构思和语言都折射出作者独有的风格，这种风格时常被人们认为是赫班的代名词——“魔幻现实主义”。

后来，《海洋的孩子》的插图被重新绘制，插图作者是帕特里克·班森。孩子们很喜欢这种美丽且画幅宽大、轻松悠然却富有表现力的插图。赫班经常在他的作品里涉及自然主题，而班森则以宽广、自然而且开放的海洋和天空完美地再现了这个动人故事的基调。

2、《Burglar Bill》

《大盗比尔》很适合读给那些已经能够玩味文字中的头韵幽默的小读者听。故事讲的是大盗比尔以及同样做坏事的窃贼贝蒂的趣事。比尔曾不小心偷走贝蒂的婴儿宝宝，小婴儿当时正睡在一个盒子里面……故事里的比尔和贝蒂认识到他们自己的错误，依靠的是爱的感召力量。

故事的主题可以给年幼的孩子们留出巨大的讨论空间。孩子们没必要直接议论比尔是否该偷东西，却可以围绕着比尔所偷来的物品展开探讨，独自阅读这个故事的小读者会乐于找出所有的这些物品，也会喜欢在插图中用连线的方式把所有的东西物归原主。

3、《Dogger》

作者休斯于1977年凭借《玩具狗道格》摘取了凯特·格林纳威奖。她总能捕捉到孩子生活中的细小琐事，并为此感怀不已。这些生活细节包括单纯地从水坑或冰激凌中所获得的快乐，以及在此过程中让人们感受到童年最为温暖舒心的一刻。

一天，小男孩戴夫丢失了他心爱的电动玩具狗。丢失的地点，可能在从购买冰激凌到接他姐姐贝拉放学这段路之间。戴夫为此心神不宁，一下子变得格外安静。当这只玩具狗意外地出现在学校的旧物交易市场上时，戴夫却没有钱，无法买回他的宝贝。

Two of her new ESL classmates wanted to know where Tara was from. They were both from Iraq. Because Tara looked Iraqi, one of the women asked Tara, in English, if she was from Iraq. Tara replied, “No, I’m not.” Then the women took turns asking Tara if she was from Iran, or Syria, or Jordan. To each question, Tara responded with a simple no. Laughing, one woman said to the other, “She's not from anywhere!” The two went to their desks, talking to each other in Arabic. The next day, the teacher divided the students into groups of four. The students in each group asked introductory questions of each other. A student in Tara’s group asked her, “Where are you from?” Tara answered that she was from Iraq. The two women who had questioned Tara the day before were sitting only a few feet away. Both of them heard Tara’s response. “Aha!” they both exclaimed. “You ARE from Iraq!” Tara smiled and said yes. Then she apologized to both of them for lying the day before. She explained that she had not wanted to get into an Arabic conversation with them. It had been her experience that many ESL students continued to speak their native language in ESL class, and Tara had not come to ESL class to practice her Arabic. In her opinion, ESL students should try to speak English only. “I agree,” said Rose. “You’re 100 percent right,” agreed Jennifer. “Rose and I must stop speaking Arabic to each other. Right, Rose?” Rose nodded, and then said something in Arabic. All three women laughed. Over the next four months, Tara became friendly with both women, although she never spoke a word of Arabic to them during class or break.
