| Gr 3-6-Georgie lives in an unconventional household, but even her rather unusual family does not truly understand her intense belief that she can fly. Then a Canadian goose enters her life. His are the guiding wings that allow Georgie to fulfill her dream. However, where there are dreams there are always those who, lacking imagination, will seek to destroy them in the name of common sense. Georgie discovers this to her sorrow, yet learns that in opening the sky to her, her friend has truly given her the world. This gentle, exquisite story by Jane Langton (Harper, 1980) was a Newbery Honor book. It speaks of that tentative step from the innocence of childhood to the acceptance of growth and change. Performed by actress MaryBeth Hurt, the production is evocative and heart-warming. Hurt creates voices for each character and carries listeners along, on feathered wings, into Georgie's world and the greater one that lies beyond.-Teresa Bateman, Brigadoon Elementary School, Federal Way, WA |
Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价: |
| This book is so fantastic. It has all the qualities I consider appealing to non-committal fantasy readers. A young girl searching for something, a goose prince, a magic present and some characters that oppose all that the main character does. Georgie is a young girl who is a little out of the loop of day to day life, seeing as how she lives near a place called Walden pond, this is no surprise. Georgie starts believing that she can fly and actually injures herself a couple of times. Truth be told she really can with her goose prince who seems to have been drawn to Georgie. There is an awful lady who lives next door. She plants shrubbery with thorns on them to keep children out of her yard. She has seen Georgie flying and opposes this very much. This story becomes a tumult between nature and man , childhood beliefs and adulthood notions. I would highly recommend this book to any age person. In the begiining of the book there is a quote from Thoureau's Walden to bring the natural connection to this book even closer. There is more here than meets the eye. |
