《盘中餐》

一碗米饭神奇而美丽的故事

作 者：于虹呈 图文

本书讲述了一碗米饭来历的神奇而美丽的故事。作者选取被列入世界文化遗产名录的云南省元阳梯田为背景，以二十四节气为记录线索，将中国最传统的水稻种植和加工方式以及少数民族的特殊农耕文化通过画面呈现出来，赞誉悠久的中国农耕文明，认识盘中餐的来之不易和农民劳动的艰辛。仁爱、和平，安静、中庸，以及乐天知命、顺应自然，这些民族品性是中国农耕文明留给我们的宝贵遗产。翻开本书，扑面而来的，是土地的清新，是田野的宽广，还有在这片土地上才能找到的孩子们的纯净笑容!

《孟姜女哭长城》

孟姜女的悲伤和抹不去的古典

作 者: 唐亚明

插 画: 蔡皋

表面上看，这还是那个妇孺皆知的孟姜女寻夫送寒衣、哭倒长城八百里的传统民间故事，可是渐渐地，另一个线索“长城”浮现出来，威严肃穆，漫长无边，走近去瞧瞧，可以看到修筑工地的各种细节，也看到那些劳役的蝼蚁人生。这不是那种试图给孩子们带来欢笑的图画书，但也许是那种不得不给我们的孩子讲讲的故事。我们从漫长的历史长河中走过来，背着重重的包袱，至少应该让孩子们知道，包袱里也有孟姜女的悲伤和抹不去的古典。

《恐龙阿瓜和他的大尾巴》

充满了天马行空的想象力的魔法世界

作 者：张嘉骅

A Little History of the World

from the Stone Age to the atomic bomb

by E. H. Gombrich

R

Gombrich’s bestselling history of the world for young readers tells the story of mankind from the Stone Age to the atomic bomb, focusing not on small detail but on the sweep of human experience, the extent of human achievement, and the depth of its frailty. The product of a generous and humane sensibility, this timeless account makes intelligible the full span of human history. In forty concise chapters, Gombrich tells the story of man from the stone age to the atomic bomb. In between emerges a colorful picture of wars and conquests, grand works of art, and the spread and limitations of science. This is a text dominated not by dates and facts, but by the sweep of mankind’s experience across the centuries, a guide to humanity’s achievements and an acute witness to its frailties.
