From Organization / 国外机构评价:
Francisco, trying to find work for his grandfather, or abuelo, who has just arrived from Mexico, acts as a liaison between Abuelo, who doesn't speak English, and Ben, who wants to hire a gardener for a day's work. Eager to earn the badly needed pay, Francisco assures Ben that his grandfather is a skilled gardener (Abuelo is in fact a carpenter). Returning at the end of the day, Ben is shocked to discover that Francisco and Abuelo stripped his field of the plants and left the weeds. Abuelo is also angered, learning only now that Francisco had lied to Ben, and refuses payment until they have done the job correctly. Recognizing the older man's integrity, Ben rewards Abuelo and Francisco with the promise of "more than just one day's work." Says Ben of the plants: "The roots are still there. If they've replanted early, they'll be alright." Similarly, Francisco is given a chance to start over. He changes from a naively parental figure to a child who "had begun to learn the important things." The shift in the boy's role quietly suggests not only the importance of a work ethic but also Francisco's need to be a child, guided by a caring adult. With expressive, gestural watercolors, Himler, who illustrated Bunting's Fly Away Home and Someday a Tree, conveys the boy's complex relationship with his grandfather and strongly invokes both the harsh and the tender landscapes of Francisco's world. Ages 5-8.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价:
Let me begin by saying that I am a big fan of Eve Bunting and admire her for writing about people who otherwise receive little attention in stories. "A Day's Work" is worthy of that reputation. It is a story of day laborers from Mexico; moreover, it describes how the whole family pulls together to make ends meet (a theme that Francisco Jimenez beautifully explores in "The Circuit/Cajas de Carton). Though it's a simple story, there are several surprise twists. As with her other stories, Eve Bunting tells this one with her characteristic sensitivity without indulging in, you know, the mushy stuff. This book will enable children and adults alike to take a new look at honesty and, as the title says, a day's work.

这本书,讲了一个爷爷,刚从墨西哥暂时到美国来的老人(爷爷)和孙子找打工的地方,被雇用去做一个园艺师,爷爷不懂英语,只会西班牙语,孙子一开始为了要这一份工作,说谎跟来招工的人说,他爷爷懂园艺,招工的人将他们带到一个种着CHICKWEEDS的一个花园,交代好事情,没等他们开始工作就走了,昨近晚上的时候,工作结束了,那个招工的人回来,发现他们把应该拔掉的留下来了,应该留着的给拔掉的,很生气,就在这个时候,爷爷就说了,还来得及补救吗,我们明天再来过,把那些拔掉的再种上去,不收工作。 看完这本书,我问儿子,你从中学到了什么,孩子回答说,不应该撒谎。 我从这本书中,觉得这老爷子真是憨厚。
