這本繪本終于到了，之前一直很欣賞Rosemary Wells的《Read to your bunny》, 在培訓期間老師提到WHY 這點時，第一點就講到LOVE, 為了闡明這點，老師讀了這本書提到父母要遵守的principles，真的覺得特別喜歡。
讀前了解
1. 作者簡介
Rosemary?Wells?(1943-2012)?
羅斯瑪麗·威爾斯是一位非常有創意的美國兒童圖畫書作家及插畫家。她創作了六十多本兒童圖畫書，屢獲大獎，其中包括《給寶寶讀故事Read?to?Your?Bunny》，《兔子魯比和麥克斯?Max?and?Ruby》與暢銷書《小狗麥達夫》系列以及《艾米莉上學記》。她在圖畫書中塑造的角色Max、Ruby、Edward、Timothy深受大家喜愛。她還為Iona?Opie的著名作品《我的第一本鵝媽媽童謠My?Very?First?Mother?Goose》繪制插畫。?她的書幽默感縱橫，常常一個微小細節就能逗得孩子哈哈大笑。她喜歡從幼兒真實生活中探尋創作靈感，故事題材往往也取決于人們的日常生活。她擅長用擬人化的動物為主角，自然真實的傳遞孩子們的心理和行為，引發孩子的共鳴。同時，她非常注意細節的處理和改造，每個主人公表情上的細微轉變，往往透露了他們的心理活動和性格特征。書的插畫以沾水筆與水彩作畫、黑線勾邊，再用輕柔的顏色修飾背景和衣服，將整個圖片呈現出清新可愛的效果，易親近幼兒。
2. 內容
真的不愧是很多父母的育兒枕邊書，深受啟發。薄薄的書里卻有為人父母的大智慧。
When a child enters school for the first time,
He must be ready to learn without fear.
He must respect and trust others.
If he is able to do these two things,
He is well on his way to being a successful child.
A successful child is curious about the world.
She is able to concentrate and knows right from wrong.
A successful child learns from experience.
Her parents never stand between their child
and the consequences of what she does.
All children bring to school what they learn at home.
This book is about creating a home full of harmony
and the preparation of a successful child.
You are your child’ s first teacher.
超想和身邊的每位父母朋友分享這10條principles.
讀后：
1. 真的覺得時不時可以翻翻這本可愛又富含智慧的小書
2. 看圖時，真的也會交給我們跟孩子互動的正確方式，比如圖里有一段對話是： I had the most wonderful dream, 爸爸說：tell us.
3. 真的深刻意識到家庭教育是一切教育的起點。 All children bring to school what they learn at home.
I love this picture book so much.
