During his distinguished career Arnold Lobel wrote and/or illustrated over 70 books for children. To his illustrating credit, he had a Caldecott Medal book -- Fables (1981) -- and two Caldecott Honor Books-his own Frog and Toad are Friends (1971) and Hildilid's Night by Cheli Duran Ryan (1972). To his writing credit, he had a Newbery Honor Book -- Frog and Toad Together (1973). But to his greatest credit, he had a following of literally millions of young children with whom he shared the warmth and humor of his unpretentious vision of life.
Though he was a born storyteller -- he began making up stories extemporaneously to entertain his fellow second-graders in Schenectady, New York, where he grew up in the care of his grandparents. Mr. Lobel called himself a "lucky amateur" in terms of his writing. Viewing himself as a professionally trained illustrator (he received a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from Pratt Institute), he said, "I know how to draw pictures. With writing, I don't really know what I'm doing. It's very intuitive."
In addition to the Frog and Toad books, Owl at Home, Mouse Tales, The Book of Pigericks, and many other popular books he created, Mr. Lobel also illustrated other writers' texts that captured his fancy. He viewed this as "something different and challenging." Often his illustrations for those books showed a different aspect of his personality and his artistic expertise, ranging from his meticulous dinosaurs in Dinosaur Time by Peggy Parish to his chilling pen-and-ink drawings in Nightmares: Poems to Trouble Your Sleep by Jack Prelutsky, about which Booklist wrote, "Young readers will be amazed that the gentle Lobel of Frog and Toad fame can be so comfortably diabolic."
In 1977 Mr. Lobel and his wife, Anita, a distinguished children's book author and artist in her own right, collaborated on their first book, How the Rooster Saved the Day, chosen by School Library Journal as one of the Best Books of the Year, 1977. They then collaborated on three more books, A Treeful of Pigs, a 1979 ALA Notable Book; On Market Street, a 1982 Caldecott Honor Book; and The Rose in My Garden, a 1984 Boston Globe/Horn Book Honor Book.
Arnold Lobel died in 1987.

里面由几个小故事组成，内容简单易懂，又很有哲理性，不错
不错，故事很吸引人哟！差的就是没有音频呐！
内容比想象的简单，略有失望。
I purchased this book in the turtleback binding and I love the quality of the reinforced hard cover. I was frustrated because I couldn't find this book anywhere in a hardcover (except if bought a used, older copy) and wasn't sure what the turtleback would look like. It is a very professional looking cover that seems like it will last my sons whole lifetime of repeated reading and inevitable abuse. The cover/back is finished with a slight slick finish (not shiny looking though) so that if my son got a drop of milk on it, it would wipe off without a trace, for example.
Anyways, on to the book itself. I have such a love for this book as my Dad read this so many times to us as kids and this was the first book I knew I HAD to have when I had my first child. The 2 mini stories in here that I have remembered most over the last 30 years is the one about the mouse doing everything he can to get to his Mom's house and eventually trades his old, worn feet in at the side of the road for a new pair of feet (The Journey) and the story where the mouse won't turn off the bath water until he is totally clean-- which floods the whole town (The Bath). They are so silly and fun. But be aware that the illustrations aren't huge or super eye catching. But they are completely charming and chock full of memories of my Dad reading this book to my siblings and I.
We just got this book in the mail today and I have already read this book FOUR times to my almost 3 year old and he is already a huge fan of this book. I am so happy that my son enjoys books-- and particularly that he already appreciates this Arnold Lobel's book.
Stories are wacky. In a good way. I laughed because the stories were just almost nonsense in an alice in wonderland way. Like the old mouse who hated kids until they gave him chewing gum to hold up his pants. My favorite is the dirty mouse who drowns a town trying to get clean. Everyone is shouting and getting real mad. Finally after he floods the town and everyone is outraged he turns off the water and goes to bed. Ha! Oh and the wind story. Maybe that's my favorite.
This is one of the most cherished children's books in our house. Our kids loved these stories and now the grandchildren do as well. We still yell "You are clean enough now!" through the bathroom door when our daughter is in the shower for too long. SHE knows what we mean! The best stories are the ones that tickle the adult reading it as much as the children hearing it. When our kids got older, they read it to themselves. It helped that they already knew it by heart.
I brought this book because it brings good memories of when I was a little girl reading with my father. This was the first book that I would pick up and the two of us would sit on my grandmothers sofa and he would read to me. Then one day when I went to pick up the book he told me to read to him and from there I have been reading since. I wanted to bring the same good memories to my sons. Each short story is easy to comprehend and allows them to let the imagination take flight. Each of the I Can Read Books brings reading to a level that allows the children to enjoy what they are reading. I am sure that your little one will love this book too.
I LOVE all the ARnold Lobel books. My children loved them and now my grandchildren love them also! They are especially wonderful if you can get the recordings (they were originally cassette tapes) which were recorded by Arnold Lobel himself!!! GREAT feeling and the children can really get into reading them the same way!!!! I love them myself!!!!
