編輯推薦
適讀人群 :8歲及以上 Virginia Sorensen's 1957 Newbery Award winner (Harcourt, 1956) is skillfully dramatized by a cast of experienced narrators. This is a loving family saga about Marley, brother Joe, their parents, and their friends. When Marley's father returns home from World War II a broken man physically and spiritually, her mother decides that the family needs to leave the city for an extended visit to Grandma's house in the country. Listeners are drawn into the tale of a year in the life of this family as the father slowly regains his strength and confidence. The year is filled with small miracles from the first spring blossoms to the healing of their beloved neighbor, Mr. Chris. Narrated by Cynthia Bishop and dramatized by the Full Cast Family, each character is brought to life and given a unique personality and voice. Their expert narration brings this inspiring American classic to life. So many children today have parents who are part of the war effort overseas that this somewhat old-fashioned, half-century old story is still relevant for youngsters today.
內容簡介
Marly's father came back from the war a different man. Something inside him seems as cold and dead as the winter world outside. But when the family moves to Grandma's old house on Maple Hill, miracles begin to happen. The sap in the trees begins to rise, the leaves begin to turn, and Marly's father starts to bloom again, like the world around them.
This wise and moving story is a must-have for every reader's library.

為瞭強調這樣的冤案並不是個彆的情況,小說還描寫在審訊中尉之前,法官另外辦的幾樁案件。一個被打得頭破血流的人站在被告席上,而那衣冠齊楚、渾身沒一點挨打痕跡的人反而是原告。當法官正言厲色地問被告為什麼要破壞國王的治安時,那人結結巴巴地說:"對天發誓,我十分敬愛國王。是這個人破壞瞭我的腦袋,然後,我的腦袋纔破壞瞭他的棍子。"盡管在場的人都證明他沒還手,法官仍然判他為有罪,理由是:"他是個愛爾蘭人(當時英國人眼中的低賤民族),那就永遠是足夠的證據。"接著,一個半夜齣去替主子請産婆的女傭以街頭賣淫罪被罰苦役一個月;一個被控偷竊三條小魚的傷兵本來已宣判無罪釋放,但由於付不齣獄吏的小賬,競又關迴牢去。一位奄奄一息的老人躺在一個少女的膝上。這姑娘眼看父親要餓死,偷瞭塊麵包,結果父女都給抓瞭來-那快斷氣的老人的罪名是"窩贓"。
