Overview / 简介: |
As he did in Willy the Wimp and Gorilla (both Knopf, 1985), Browne will again captivate preschoolers with his charming chimp, simple sentences, and colorful, action-filled illustrations. In I Like Books, a young chimp shows readers fat and thin books, funny and scary books, alphabet and counting books, and others. Each uncluttered illustration is surrounded by a thin-line frame with a small detail from the picture at each corner. Things I Like includes activities most children will have experienced or hope to: dressing up, kicking a ball, wading in the sea (wearing waterwings, of course). The very youngest will relate to Things I Like, while a slightly more sophisticated level of understanding is needed to fully comprehend the relationship between the adjective describing the books and the illustrations, although . . . Books does provide an elementary introduction to categories and kinds of books. --Virginia Opocensky, formerly at Lincoln City Libraries, NE Copyright 1989 Reed Business Information, Inc. --This text refers to the Hardcover edition. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
"Browne brings a fresh perspective and his own witty visual imagination even to such simple-seeming books as these small catalogs of enthusiasms. Mass-market appeal combined with excellent quality."-- Kirkus

Anthony Edward Tudor Browne (born 11 September 1946) is a British author and illustrator of children's books with nearly forty titles to his name. For his "lasting contribution to children's literature" he won the biennial, international Hans Christian Andersen Award in 2000, the first British illustrator to do so. From 2009 to 2011 he was Children's Laureate. Browne won two Kate Greenaway Medals from the Library Association, recognising the year's best children's book illustration. For the 50th anniversary of the Medal (1955–2005), a panel named his 1983 medalist Gorilla one of the top ten winning works, which composed the ballot for a public election of the nation's favourite.
