内容简介
When George the giant spies a shop full of wonderful clothes, he decides to treat himself to a new outfit. He puts on his new shirt, pants, shoes, and tie, and is immediately transformed from the scruffiest giant in town to the spiffiest giant in town. But on his way home, George runs into various animals who need his help. And little by little, George finds himself giving away all his new purchases.
From the creators of Room on the Broom, this is a lively tale that reminds readers that sometimes it's what's inside a person-or a giant-that matters most.

精彩书评
PreSchool-Grade 3-In a place where giants and "regular sized" people coexist peacefully, George has a problem. He is "the scruffiest giant in town" until he finds a new clothing shop and buys himself some new duds. However, his days of being the spiffiest giant in town are numbered because he is so kindhearted. As he sings a little tune to himself about looking so fine, he runs into needy creatures. Soon George has given up his striped tie to warm a giraffe's neck, a shoe to house a mouse family, his shirt to a goat that needs a sail for its boat, and so on until he has to retrieve his old rags. Finally, he is offered a crown and the title "the kindest giant in town" by his appreciative beneficiaries. Scheffler's brightly colored, animated cartoons, done in pencil, ink, watercolors, colored pencils, and crayons, are perfect for this offbeat story of generosity. Good for collections needing books about being kind to others.

有人说,夜莺为了学生而献出心血,令玫瑰染上血红,绽开绝美的花瓣,可是学生却在被女孩拒绝之后心灰意冷地丢弃玫瑰,这让他们感觉不值,感觉夜莺太可悲。可是,在我看来,夜莺并不是可悲的。如果站在夜莺的角度来看待整个故事,能为所爱之人付出自己能够付出的最大代价,这本身就是一种幸福。再加之夜莺本就不求任何回报,又有什么遗憾的呢?只要自己心甘情愿,哪怕对方并不知晓,也并不是件可悲的事情吧。这样伟大的觉悟,就个人而言,完全可以与安徒生笔下的海的女儿媲美。 又有人认为,故事中的女孩过于势利,可是换个角度来看待,女孩也没有过错。这个世界本就物欲横流,面包比水仙花更容易吸引人去追逐。宝石的闪亮掩盖了玫瑰的凄艳,女孩的举动虽让人能够理解,却更觉得无奈。 穷学生最终从中悟出了道理:“在现实的世界里,首要的是实用。”这种领悟我们不能说不对,但却为之感到悲哀,少年还未体会爱情的美妙滋味,就已经被情所伤,只能回到他的“哲学和玄学书”的世界中去,将自己的性灵囚禁在高高的象牙塔中,不再接触世事。这固然不会再受到伤害,但也不能再亲身去品味人世沧桑,去了解复杂多样的人性……由此而言,学生才是故事中最悲哀的角色。 在整个童话集中,我最喜欢的童话实际上是《巨人的花园》。 世人称这篇童话是王尔德所著九篇童话中最美的一篇。王尔德是英国唯美主义艺术运动的开创者,《巨人的花园》就充斥着明显的唯美情调和宗教氛围。 无论是小孩们攀上树枝使得花开满树、莺啼燕舞,抑或是巨人死在大树之下,身上覆满了白花,这些唯美的情景都有中世纪油画般的典雅精致,和天主教对死亡意义的神圣追溯。 王尔德在这个故事里,似乎仅仅传达着一种“善有善报”的因果论,但是实际上,更多的反而是在体现某种宗教情结。故事中,巨人最喜欢的小孩——手掌和脚掌上分别都有一清晰的钉子印——他是耶稣的化身,是神的孩子,令巨人颤抖下跪,发自内心地敬畏喜爱,并在他的指引下,灵魂前往这个小孩的花园——天堂。 1900年,王尔德在自己友人的帮助下,改信天主教。也许,这篇童话早早地便预示了这样的结果吧。 《快乐王子》也是让人读后忍不住落泪的美妙之作。这个故事中的王子雕像与小燕子身上都存在着一种崇高伟大、无私忘我的精神特质。王子将自己身上的宝石和金子委托给燕子,让他送给那些需要这些东西的人们——也许是穷困潦倒的戏作家,也许是卖不出火柴的小女孩,也许是那些忍饥挨饿的乞丐
