Books Kids Should Read Before They're 12
The Snowy Day By Ezra Jack Keats
A young boy wakes to a world of freshly fallen snow and goes exploring throughout the cityscape in this gentle, shining classic. With simple text and imaginative collages (拼贴图), Ezra Jack Keats catches the delight kids feel in the simplest pleasures.
Goodnight Moon By Margaret Wise Brown
As the moon rises in a winter night sky, a young rabbit settles down for the night. An old lady rabbit rocks quietly in a nearby chair sewing, two cats playing on the carpet. The room grows gradually darker as the rabbit says goodnight to each object in his room and outside the window, and then falls asleep.
The Tale of Peter Rabbit By Beatrix Potter
Despite his mother's warning, Peter Rabbit enters Mr McGregor's garden. Sure enough, Mr McGregor tracks Peter with a spade. Peter loses his shoes among the potatoes and cabbages. Frightened and out of breath, Peter finally sees the gate and slips back home. He is put to bed with a cup of tea while his three wellbehaved sisters enjoy fruits and milk.
Frog and Toad (蟾蜍) Are Friends By Arnold Lobel
Once Frog convinces the sleepy Toad that winter is actually over, the two friends run outside to see how the world is looking in spring. With each new season comes new journeys. Even though the characters are fictional, the feelings they share are very real, and the care they show for each other and the world around them stands out as a good example of friendship.
