【内容简介】
1879年的一个夜晚，在巴黎的一家旅馆里，女儿们围坐在马克•吐温身边，请求她们的父亲讲个故事。她们从一本杂志上选了一幅图作为引子，马克•吐温开始讲强尼的故事：这个贫穷而孤独的男孩，只有一只叫“瘟疫和饥荒”的鸡真正给他作伴。在吃了一朵魔法种子开出的花之后，强尼拥有了跟动物沟通、听懂动物们说话的能力。在这些动物朋友们的陪伴和帮助下，强尼找到勇气和自信，去拯救一个被巨人绑架的王子……
后来，吐温草草记下了一份粗略的笔记，但故事一直没有写完。一百多年后，这份笔记偶然被人从加州大学伯克利分校的马克•吐温文献档案馆找出来，作为一个新故事的基础，由凯迪克金奖得主菲利普•斯蒂德和埃琳•斯蒂德重新开始创作。菲利普•斯蒂德在这份粗略笔记的指引下，把一个未完成的故事发展成了这部作品。埃琳•斯蒂德的插画，优雅、幽默，极为动人。这是一个穿越了时光的故事，一部由当今儿童文学界最具影响力的两个人物重赋新生的美国最传奇作家的儿童图画书处女作。
【作者介绍】
马克•吐温（1835-1910）
被誉为美国文学最伟大的作家之一，原名塞缪尔•朗赫恩•克莱门斯，出生于密苏里州的佛罗里达。在他小时候，全家迁居密苏里州的汉尼巴尔，该市坐落于密西西比河畔——这个环境激发了他的灵感，创作出了他的两部最著名的小说：《汤姆•索亚历险记》和《哈克贝利•费恩历险记》。吐温和妻子奥莉薇娅•兰顿•克莱门斯，育有四个子女：儿子兰顿（幼年早夭），以及三个女儿苏茜、克拉拉和珍。
菲利普•斯蒂德和埃琳•斯蒂德
凯迪克金奖作品《阿莫的生病日》的作家和插画家。他们还共同创作了备受称赞的《大熊有个故事要说》和《伦尼和露西》。菲利普和埃琳居住于密歇根州北部。在天气晴朗的日子，他们从家里可以看到海狸岛。
【媒体评论】
“一本特别的好书！也让天下的大人学着为小孩断断续续讲讲故事，所有断断续续讲的故事都是珍贵记忆，首先还是珍贵的生活味道！”
——儿童文学作家 梅子涵
就像来自一个已消失文明中的手工艺品，“麦淇淋”给了我们一个诱人的机会，让我们可以一窥马克•吐温每晚为女儿们即兴创作的一些未经雕琢的、转瞬即逝的故事。
——《纽约时报》
完成一个可以说美国最伟大的作家写下的故事，并非易事。但是，这对凯迪克奖得主、作家-插画家组合（也是夫妻档）证明了，他们可以胜任这项任务。一部引人沉思、异想天开的作品，吐温也会欣然接受。
——《科克斯书评》星级评论
塞缪尔•朗赫恩•克莱门斯本人也会为此骄傲的。
——《书单》星级评论
结合吐温（通常是讽刺性）的幽默和“人生教训”，带着点寓言的性质，还有斯蒂德自己讲故事的技巧——这一切产生了一部很棒的幻想作品。
——《学校图书馆杂志》星级评论
一定会成为适合所有年龄段的一部读物。

A never-before-published, previously unfinished Mark Twain children’s story is brought to life by Philip and Erin Stead, creators of the Caldecott Medal-winning A Sick Day for Amos McGee.
In a hotel in Paris one evening in 1879, Mark Twain sat with his young daughters, who begged their father for a story. Twain began telling them the tale of Johnny, a poor boy in possession of some magical seeds. Later, Twain would jot down some rough notes about the story, but the tale was left unfinished . . . until now.
Plucked from the Mark Twain archive at the University of California at Berkeley, Twain’s notes now form the foundation of a fairy tale picked up over a century later. With only Twain’s fragmentary script and a story that stops partway as his guide, author Philip Stead has written a tale that imagines what might have been if Twain had fully realized this work.
Johnny, forlorn and alone except for his pet chicken, meets a kind woman who gives him seeds that change his fortune, allowing him to speak with animals and sending him on a quest to rescue a stolen prince. In the face of a bullying tyrant king, Johnny and his animal friends come to understand that generosity, empathy, and quiet courage are gifts more precious in this world than power and gold.
Illuminated by Erin Stead’s graceful, humorous, and achingly poignant artwork, this is a story that reaches through time and brings us a new book from America’s most legendary writer, envisioned by two of today’s most important names in children’s literature.
"will capture the imaginations of readers of all ages"—USA Today, ★ ★ ★ ★ (out of four stars)

★ "a cast of eccentric characters, celestially fine writing, and a crusade against pomp that doesn't sacrifice humor."—Publishers Weekly, starred review
★ "Completing a story penned by arguably America's greatest author is no easy feat, but the Caldecott-winning author-illustrator (and husband-wife) team proves more than equal to the task. . . . A pensive and whimsical work that Twain would applaud."—Kirkus, starred review
★ "The combination of Twain’s (often sarcastic) humor and “lessons of life,” a touch of allegory, and Stead’s own storytelling skills result in an awesome piece of fantasy."—School Library Journal, starred review
★ "Beautifully understated and nuanced illustrations by Erin Stead add the finishing flourishes to this remarkable work."—Shelf Awareness, starred review
