You are great and a fast learner!!! Thanks for sharing all these books. I actually have earmarked these books in my hunting list. Are they available in library? I may not buy them all as they all are hardcover which takes a lot of space at home ah.
I have 子儿吐吐 already. Did you buy all such books? Who ones are worth buying in your opinion?
How old is your kid? mine is only 2 yrs. Maybe a bit too difficult for him.
Cheers
作者原來是很出名的繒本作家,此故事已在英美出版,英文版書名:<The Very Kind Rich Lady And Her One Hundred Dogs>,我手上那本是台灣版本
她的圖畫,很像小朋友的筆法,用木顏色,水彩去勾勒出每隻小狗的線條,構圖很豐富甚有童趣,很見到作者率真的一面。
作為兒童繪本, 故事的道理很簡單---->從太太收養了100隻小狗,作為家長,看到她逐一替牠們梳毛,逐一記著牠們的名字,跟牠們逐一遊戲,你會教小朋友甚麼
作者露絲•布朗的作品曾多次入圍格林納威童書大獎,本書和此次同時推出的「蝸牛去散步」在敘事結構及主旨上互相呼應,結合為完美的自然科學繪本合輯。

每頁文字很少,如首2頁只有"ten seeds, one ant.",
次2頁是"nine seeds, one pigeon."...
又2頁"two buds, too many greenflies.",
再2頁"one flower, one bee.",
最後2頁"ten seed!",
仔仔2-3歲時睇,細個當睇靚公仔,大小小可以當counting down問佢倒數(10之後係0羊ar? / 9之後係0羊ar?……),又可以睇植物生長,圖畫好靚,動物栩栩如生。
I must thank you again for introducing so many many books. Must tell you that I have the 10 Seeds, 阿罗 and the 胡蘿蔔種子 already. I will seriously consider buying those others if cannot find in library.
我地d品味好似呀。Basically all books you have read are those I have/intend to read la.
My son is sick (so am I). It will take 1-2 days when I can share more books w/ you.

"One evening, after thinking it over for some time, Harold decided to go for a walk in the moonlight." So begins the first of Johnson's books about Harold and his purple crayon, and then off he goes, using the crayon to draw a moon and a path to walk on. Leaving the path, he draws himself into a forest, ocean, and balloon, exploring until he's tired and must find his way to home and bed.
By her own account, legendary children's book editor Ursula Nordstrom's "first reaction to Harold was so luke warm and unenthusiastic"; in a letter dated 15 December 1954, Ms. Nordstrom writes to Crockett Johnson, apologizing for her early impression. She says, "I think it is FINE, and the little changes you made are just perfect. Thanks for the part about the forest, and for all the other little touches" (Nordstrom 83-84). Nordstrom, the director of Harper's Department of Books for Boys and Girls from 1940 to 1973, edited Harold and many other classics, including The Carrot Seed, E. B. White's Charlotte's Web, and Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are.
Harold's ABC (1963)
The last of Johnson's books about Harold finds him on a journey through the alphabet. With the help of his purple crayon, Harold transforms each letter into something that starts with the letter. Each picture leads seamlessly to the next one -- the cut of cake to drinking from a dipper to visiting an enormous edifice -- forming the final purple crayon adventure.
My son loves these books too. I bought the China version of Harold which was about RMB$6 @.
