林珮?biāo)紝?duì)realistic fiction的概括:
...goes to school and eats dinner with her family. She has fears, learns new things, and makes new friends. She is a regular girl, living an ordinary life.

作者本身其實(shí)不懂中文,就是聽都聽不懂的那種純老外,在其他書里寫過被人叫Twinkie(如圖,原來美國人這樣叫香蕉人)。但很喜歡營(yíng)造中國風(fēng)情。做法就是插入大量中國食物做比喻,我覺得有點(diǎn)刻意了。比如“月亮像剝皮荔枝”,中國人反而不會(huì)這樣比喻,銀盤水鏡都是現(xiàn)成的。
