Overview / 简介: |
When you're a champion ice-skater, you have to wait for the conditions to be just right.
You have to wait through spring. You have to wait through summer. You have to wait through autumn until . . .
Finally, as the snow begins to fall, you can show the world just how good you really are!
From the author/illustrator of The Secret Circus and Bandits comes one very self-assured young rabbit's first-hand account of the trials and tribulations of being a skating star, with illustrations that will melt your heart on even the coldest winter day. |
From Organization / 国外机构评价: |
In a family of ice-skating bunnies, there is one “champion” (at least in her own mind)—a little girl bunny, dressed entirely in pink. She tells us, “when you’re a champion ice-skater, you have to wait for the conditions to be just right,” and so wait she does, through each season. In spring, while the parental bunnies tend their garden, our girl draws skating diagrams; in summer, while the others swim, bunny plays with what appears to be an ice-skating bunny action figure; in fall, the family harvests while our girl puts skates on a scarecrow. Soon it’s winter, and you know what snow and dropping temperatures mean: it’s time. Wright (The Secret Circus, 2009) touches on well-traversed picture-book themes here, including confidence, patience, and single-minded obsession. Her signature naïf, acrylic-on-canvas artwork is the star of the show; warm and inviting, it depicts the bunny family’s cozy tree dwelling and a myriad of wonderful details (a snowman with bunny ears!). Nice for wintertime sharing over a cup of cocoa. Preschool-Grade 2. |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
Johanna Wright went to school with my daughter. What a sweetheart! And her paintings and illustrated books are a delight! A got Bunnies on Ice, read it and looked at the photos, and only then gave it to my grandkids. I think there is a new one coming out soon I will give it to my grandchildren in the same way--after I read it. One of my daughters has an orginal painting by Johanna that has bunnies that look like these. It's a treasure. |
