加恩和爸比一起念 《The Very Hungry Caterpillar》
享譽國際的繪本作家 Eric Carle (艾瑞．卡爾) 的眾多作品中，最著名，也是加恩最喜歡的就是 《The Very Hungry Caterpillar》「好餓的毛毛蟲」。
根據 Amazon.com 網站上的介紹，這本書已被翻譯成二十種語言版本，銷售達千萬冊以上。「月光下，一顆小小的蛋躺在葉子上。星期天早上，一隻飢餓的小毛毛蟲從蛋裡爬出來，開始尋找食物。星期一牠吃了一個蘋果，但他還是好餓好餓；星期二牠吃了二個梨子，但他還是好餓好餓；星期三吃了三個李子，但是他還是好餓好餓…」看似簡單的故事，卻讓孩子不自覺地喜歡上它。跟著毛毛蟲在書洞中穿進穿出，小朋友們不僅可以學習語句的表達，認識「星期」的名稱與順序、各種水果及食物的名稱，也可以認識阿拉伯數字與學習數數，還可進一步探討奇妙的自然生態哦！
準備介紹這本優質童書時，我突然想起大約三個月前我曾經錄過一段女兒和爸爸一起念這本書的影片。我把它的聲音截取下來，配合幾張繪本的畫面作成一段影片，也算是另類的有聲書吧
In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf.
One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and – pop!- out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.
He started to look for some food.
On Monday he ate through one apple. But he was still hungry.
On Tuesday he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry.
On Wednesday he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry.
On Thursday he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry.
On Friday he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry.
On Saturday he ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice- cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake and one slice of watermelon. That night he had a stomachache!
The next day was Sunday again. The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf, and after that he felt much better.
Now he wasn’t hungry any more- and he wasn’t a little caterpillar any more. He was a big, fat caterpillar!
He built a small house, called a cocoon, around himself. He stayed inside for more than two
weeks. Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out and ….
he was a beautiful butterfly!
