作者及本书介绍,见妮可妮子的团购贴:http://www.ebama.net/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3879&extra=&highlight=%D4%AD%B0%E6&page=7  64#

这本书我感觉比较深奥,做了两天的功课,也没敢给孩子读。我怕孩子提问,问讲的什么意思?我答不上来。看着单词都不复杂,但直译出来,表示什么意思呢?我没搞懂!这本书有什么背景知识?书中的人物形象,我完全搞不懂。

早上儿子看到了这本书,对封面就很好奇,问:“这树林里的眼睛是谁的眼睛?”。然后就要求我读,我只好硬着头皮读下去,只读英文,没有翻译。七七看图很认真,不时问:这是谁?那是谁?......第一次阅读算敷衍过关。

有爸妈也买了这本书,在给孩子读的吗?大家怎么理解的呢?孩子会怎么提问呢?.......

做功课时,在网上不但发现了文本,竟然还找到了音频,放于此,请大家交流讨论。谢谢!
Instructionsby Neil Gaiman
Touch the wooden gate in the wall you neversaw before.Say "please" before you open the latch,go through,walk down the path.A red metal imp hangs from the green-paintedfront door,as a knocker,do not touch it; it will bite your fingers.Walk through the house. Take nothing. Eatnothing.However, if any creature tells you that it hungers,feed it.If it tells you that it is dirty,clean it.If it cries to you that it hurts,if you can,ease its pain.
From the back garden you will be able to see thewild wood.The deep well you walk past leads to Winter'srealm;there is another land at the bottom of it.If you turn around here,you can walk back, safely;you will lose no face. I will think no less of you.
Once through the garden you will be in thewood.The trees are old. Eyes peer from the under-growth.Beneath a twisted oak sits an old woman. Shemay ask for something;give it to her. Shewill point the way to the castle.Inside it are three princesses.Do not trust the youngest. Walk on.In the clearing beyond the castle the twelvemonths sit about a fire,warming their feet, exchanging tales.They may do favors for you, if you are polite.You may pick strawberries in December's frost.Trust the wolves, but do not tell them whereyou are going.The river can be crossed by the ferry. The ferry-man will take you.(The answer to his question is this:If he hands the oar to his passenger, he will be free toleave the boat.Only tell him this from a safe distance.)
If an eagle gives you a feather, keep it safe.Remember: that giants sleep too soundly; thatwitches are often betrayed by their appetites;dragons have one soft spot, somewhere, always;hearts can be well-hidden,and you betray them with your tongue.
Do not be jealous of your sister.Know that diamonds and rosesare as uncomfortable when they tumble fromone's lips as toads and frogs:colder, too, and sharper, and they cut.
Remember your name.Do not lose hope — what you seek will be found.Trust ghosts. Trust those that you have helpedto help you in their turn.Trust dreams.Trust your heart, and trust your story.When you come back, return the way you came.Favors will be returned, debts will be repaid.Do not forget your manners.Do not look back.Ride the wise eagle (you shall not fall).Ride the silver fish (you will not drown).Ride the grey wolf (hold tightly to his fur).
There is a worm at the heart of the tower; that iswhy it will not stand.
When you reach the little house, the place yourjourney started,you will recognize it, although it will seemmuch smaller than you remember.Walk up the path, and through the garden gateyou never saw before but once.And then go home. Or make a home.And rest.

文章就象诗歌,读起来还是很美的。

    文本重写如下:

    Touch the wooden gate in the wall you never
    saw before.
    Say "please" before you open the latch,
    go through,
    walk down the path.
    A red metal imp hangs from the green-painted
    front door,
    as a knocker,
    do not touch it; it will bite your fingers.
    Walk through the house. Take nothing. Eat
    nothing.
    However, if any creature tells you that it hungers,
    feed it.
    If it tells you that it is dirty,
    clean it.
    If it cries to you that it hurts,
    if you can,
    ease its pain.

    From the back garden you will be able to see the
    wild wood.
    The deep well you walk past leads to Winter's
    realm;
    there is another land at the bottom of it.
    If you turn around here,
    you can walk back, safely;
    you will lose no face. I will think no less of you.

    Once through the garden you will be in the
    wood.
    The trees are old. Eyes peer from the under-
    growth.
    Beneath a twisted oak sits an old woman. She
    may ask for something;
    give it to her. She
    will point the way to the castle.
    Inside it are three princesses.
    Do not trust the youngest. Walk on.
    In the clearing beyond the castle the twelve
    months sit about a fire,
    warming their feet, exchanging tales.
    They may do favors for you, if you are polite.
    You may pick strawberries in December's frost.
    Trust the wolves, but do not tell them where
    you are going.
    The river can be crossed by the ferry. The ferry-
    man will take you.
    (The answer to his question is this:
    If he hands the oar to his passenger, he will be free to
    leave the boat.
    Only tell him this from a safe distance.)

    If an eagle gives you a feather, keep it safe.
    Remember: that giants sleep too soundly; that
    witches are often betrayed by their appetites;
    dragons have one soft spot, somewhere, always;
    hearts can be well-hidden,
    and you betray them with your tongue.

    Do not be jealous of your sister.
    Know that diamonds and roses
    are as uncomfortable when they tumble from
    one's lips as toads and frogs:
    colder, too, and sharper, and they cut.

    Remember your name.
    Do not lose hope — what you seek will be found.
    Trust ghosts. Trust those that you have helped
    to help you in their turn.
    Trust dreams.
    Trust your heart, and trust your story.
    When you come back, return the way you came.
    Favors will be returned, debts will be repaid.
    Do not forget your manners.
    Do not look back.
    Ride the wise eagle (you shall not fall).
    Ride the silver fish (you will not drown).
    Ride the grey wolf (hold tightly to his fur).

    There is a worm at the heart of the tower; that is
    why it will not stand.

    When you reach the little house, the place your
    journey started,
    you will recognize it, although it will seem
    much smaller than you remember.
    Walk up the path, and through the garden gate
    you never saw before but once.
    And then go home. Or make a home.
    And rest.

    这本没买,我家米饭现在听长点的句子还是不行,他会觉得没有兴趣的。另一方面我也要翻译得累死的。
    这本你还是先屯起来吧,等孩子水平到了,自然就可以看了
