网友对Polar Express 30th anniversary edition的评论
这本书真是等了很久才拿到手的，不过有点失望，小小的一本，还是删减了的，跟同名动画没法比
纸质和开本都很好，画面很精美。当时看极地特快的电影才知道这本绘本的，很好~
不错，主要冲着Liam叔的CD来的
They're not joking when they say "Big Book"! WOW! I should have looked at the reviews before purchasing, I certainly did not expect or need a book of this size, but it's beautiful and great quality.
When this huge box from Amazon showed up, I assumed Amazon was out of smaller shipping boxes. My husband and I couldn't stop laughing when we pulled this book out of the box.
This book is perfect for large audiences (classrooms). Depending on your size, you may need help holding and turning the pages - my husband is 6 foot and he would have benefited from having an assistant page turner.
This book and movie are an obsession for my little boy. He would have me read him this every night before bed all year if I didn't tell him that Santa took it back to the north pole (along with all the other Christmas books) when he brought the presents. He still insists on watching the movie several times a week, because I wasn't slick enough to hide that. We're also going to ride the Texas State Railroad Polar Express ride this year, because the only thing he asked for for Christmas was to ride a train. He'll be 4 in December, so the magic is still very much alive for him.
I ordered this book at the beginning of December to give to my 3 y/o on Xmas eve. I will be adjusting the text so as not to plant the seed about non-believers.
This is the 25th anniversary edition. It is supposed to come with a CD (attached to the front inside cover) and an ornament. MAKE SURE YOURS HAS THE ORNAMENT, YOU PAID FOR IT! The first copy I received did not come with an ornament so I contacted Amazon and they sent me a new copy. I received the new one today and it had the ornament attached to the inside of the dust jacket in the back of the book. You will NOT receive a bell ornament. The one that comes with this edition says "All Aboard!"
Last year I bought the movie in BluRay because I was tired of renting it year after year. Not that Netflix hasn't had it available every year--amazing given how many other movies say "extra long wait"--but still... There's nothing like having one of your own. And along with that I downloaded the duet between Hero Girl and Lonely Boy; "When Christmas Comes To Town". But it seems like every time I see the movie, I'm reminded of the fantastic job composer Alan Silvestri does making a symphonic work out of the end credits song "Believe" as sung by Josh Groban. The Sinatra, Crosby and Como classics as played through the North Pole's Tannoy speakers during the time the kids spend there seem straight off the Time Warner Christmas CD sets, which makes them a bit redundant, but I repeat, still... As a result, this year's the year to get this soundtrack.
As the title suggests, this is the book that inspired the movie. While the book provides the general framework for the movie, there are many scenes and storylines that are absent from the book. This said, I am grading the book on its own merits while providing observations regarding the differences.
The first key difference is the artwork itself. The book's simple watercolors do not match the rich color and detail of the movie. It is more akin to something that you would see in a children's book from the early 1900s. Even so, it affords the book a certain "antique" quality that is quite in keeping with the timeless story that it tells.
The book's construction is exceptional with heavy, glossy pages held together by a tight binding. The book itself is contained in a very nice dust jacket that conforms very well to the book's shape. This book is perfect for display on a coffee table around the holidays or perhaps in the room with your Christmas tree on a small table.
The book holds an audio CD containing a narration acted by the great Liam Neeson. (He did the voiceover for the lion Aslan in the Narnia movies.) His deeply resonant voice flows like the Polar Express' signature hot chocolate. The CD is perfect for playing in your children's room while they go to sleep or in the car while you drive around a country road taking in holiday lights.
Without providing any spoilers, the book's theme is about the magic of the secular Christmas tradition. In a way, it emphasizes the importance of maintaining a childlike sense of wonder and appreciation for Christmas. While the book is in fact secular, it does contain an underlying message of believing in things that you cannot always see. All in all, I am deeply pleased to give this holiday treasure 5 stars. If you love the movie as much as I love it then you will love this book too.
