The Biggest Boy | |
Flushed with his success at feeding and dressing himself, a boy and his parents imagine him becoming so big he can wear his house as a jacket and play ball with the sun. "Sweet and simple," said PW. Ages 3-up.

Billy is a big boy who can do all sorts of things by himself. And when his parents tell him he is growing bigger every day, he starts to imagine what it would be like to be the biggest boy in the world.
Kevin Henkes lives in Madison, Wisconsin. His novels include Protecting Marie and Words of Stone. Among his picture books are Owen, a 1994 Caldecott Honor Book; Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse; and Julius, the Baby of the World.
In His Own Words..."I remember drawing at a very early age. I loved it. And my parents and teachers told me I was good at it -- that made me love it all the more."
"I also loved books, and the ones I was lucky enough to own were reread, looked at over and over, and regarded with great respect. To me great respect' meant that I took them everywhere, and the ones I still own prove it. They're brimming with all the telltale signs of true love: dog-eared pages, fingerprints on my favorite illustrations, my name and address inscribed on both front and back covers in inch-high crayon lettering, and the faint smell of stale peanut butter on the bindings."
"I wondered about authors and illustrators back then -- " What did they look like? Where did they live? Did they have families? How old were they? -- but I never imagined that one day I would be one myself."
"I became an author-illustrator when I was nineteen years old. I flew from my home in Racine, Wisconsin, to New York City with my portfolio, hoping to find a publisher. And magically enough Susan Hirschman at Greenwillow Books made my dream come true. My first picture book, All Alone, was published in 1987. Since then I've written and illustrated many picture books and written several novels. I like the variety of trying new ways to fill the pages between two covers. Experimenting with words and paint and ink keeps my job interesting."
"I used to live with my parents and brothers and sister and work at a card table in my bedroom. Now I live with my wife, my son, and my daughter in our own house and work at a drawing table in my own studio. I never thought I'd be lucky enough to be a real author and illustrator. I wouldn't trade it for anything."

适合稍微大一点的宝宝，2岁以上吧，因为文字比较多点，要讲久一点。
画册非常大，手感很好！
挺薄的，适合给宝宝讲
This book was one of my son's favorite books as a child. (His name is Billy). Just had to buy it for my future grandchildren! It's all about "getting big". A sweet story.
Billy and his family imagine what it would be like if Billy were the biggest boy in the world. Maybe he could blow on the clouds and make them move, play ball with the sun, and wear the moon as a mustache. All of this talk of Billy being big enables Billy to get into bed by himself, blow a kiss to his parents and reach up to the moon far away which looks like the size of a white, shiny marble.
The pictures are big - this would be a fun read-aloud for preschool through first grade. Young children will delight in imaging what you could do if you were very big.
