Welcome to a lush meadow bustling with activity, where one turtle digs, two fish swim, three bluebirds sing, and so on to ten fireflies that shine in the night. Keats's collage-style illustrations perfectly complement this classic Appalachian counting rhyme, which is also a popular song for toddlers.Welcome to a lush meadow bustling with activity, where one turtle digs, two fish swim, three bluebirds sing, and so on to ten fireflies that shine in the night.

這首兒歌細(xì)膩地描繪了生活在河邊草地上的十種動(dòng)物自己獨(dú)特的環(huán)境里,跟著媽媽一起活動(dòng)的場(chǎng)景。從色調(diào),造型,構(gòu)圖,光影和筆觸,這本書(shū)的插畫幾乎算得上是藝術(shù)品。除了吸引目光外,插畫還是最好的批注,最傳神的翻譯,孩子很容易從中找到線索來(lái)理解故事內(nèi)容。畫中描繪了岸邊蘆葦叢里的麝鼠muskrat因潛水造成的水波光影,寫實(shí)中有印象派的影子。還有母蜥蜴在門扉上曬太陽(yáng)取暖的一幕,把老舊又長(zhǎng)了青苔的門扉the old mossy gate如實(shí)呈現(xiàn)在讀者眼前。
