内容简介

In this astonishingly beautiful and imaginatively illustrated picture book, Mosquito tells Iguana a tall tale that sets off a chain reaction that ends in jungle disaster. Iguana is so upset at being told such nonsense that he plugs his ears. So, of course, when Python says good morning, Iguana doesn't hear and ignores him altogether. Python suspects Iguana is plotting mischief against him, so he hides in a rabbit hole - which terrifies Rabbit. And so this amusing African legend goes, until finally the chain of mishaps reaches Mother Owl, who reacts by refusing to hoot and wake in the sun. Eventually all is resolved, and jungle life returns to normal. But although Mosquito learns her lesson and gives up telling tall tales, she adopts a worse habit. Leo and Diane Dillon's striking full-color illustrations complement and enlarge upon the tale, perfectly capturing the expansive African imagination.

作者简介

Verna Norberg Aardema Vugteveen (6 June 1911 – 11 May 2000), best known by the name Verna Aardema, was an American author of children's books.

Born in New Era, Michigan she graduated from Michigan State University with a B.A. of Journalism in 1934. She worked as a grade school teacher from 1934 to 1973 and became a correspondent for the Muskegon Chronicle in 1951, which lasted until 1972, the year before she retired from teaching elementary school.

From the time she was a small girl, she knew that she would be a writer. She spent every free second reading anything she could get her hands on. In her Senior Year at Michigan State she won three writing contests, though not the first, they were the most influential in her decision to continue to follow her childhood dream. She first considered writing for children when her daughter refused to eat until she'd heard one of her mother's stories. These bribes were often set in the places that she had been reading about recently, and as she became more and more interested in Africa, they began to be set there more frequently.
In 1960 she published her first set of stories, Tales from the Story Hat which were very successful, and so she continued to adapt traditional tales and folklore from distant cultures, (usually from Africa and Mexico) to expose young children to the vast variety of human expression.

Her book, Why Mosquitoes Buzz in People's Ears (1975), illustrated by Leo and Diane Dillon, received the Caldecott Medal in 1976 and the Brooklyn Art Books for Children Award in 1977. Who's in Rabbit's House? 1977 was the 1977 School Library Journal Best Book of the Year and a Lewis Carroll Shelf Award winner in 1978. Aardema received the Children's Reading Round Table Award in 1981, and several of her works have been selected as Notable Books by the American Library Association. Her Oh Kojo! How Could You! won the 1984 Parents' Choice Award for Literature.

雅的命题。如果从生活的角度来谈论，艺术并不是简单的在墙上、纸上涂鸦那么简单。艺术是社会生活的反映，是人类生活不可分割的一部分，随着时代的发展，艺术与生活始终是共同发展的两条平行线，因此我们在品味人生的时候，同时也在品味艺术与生活互相影响的结晶。

吾消费京东商城数年，深知各产品琳琅满目。然，唯此宝物与众皆不同，为出淤泥之清莲。使吾为之动容，心驰神往，以至茶饭不思，寝食难安，辗转反侧无法忘怀。于是乎紧衣缩食，凑齐银两，倾吾之所有而能买。东哥之热心、快递员之殷切，无不让人感激涕零，可谓迅雷不及掩耳盗铃儿响叮当仁不让世界充满爱。待打开包裹之时，顿时金光四射，屋内升起七彩祥云，处处皆是祥和之气。吾惊讶之余甚是欣喜若狂，呜呼哀哉！此宝乃是天上物，人间又得几回求！

艺术是社会生活的反映，是人类生活不可分割的一部分，我们的原始祖先在生产力十分低下的状况下也与艺术结下了不解之缘。但是艺术与生活的关系也是不断发展的，这种关系大体经历了合-分-合三个阶段的辩证发展。 艺术与生活表现为直接融合的状况。马克思、恩格斯曾说过：“思想、观念、意识的生产最初是直接与人们的物质交换，与现实生活的语言交织在一起的。”人体实际上是交往媒介，人通过自己与外界交往的运动，将自己内在的社会本质力量转化到与之交往的对象身上，在对象身上看到自身，并使对象与自己认可或认同。 人对自己本质的全面占有，必须以自由的精神交往为前提，是内在自然的表现，而不是迫于外在的需要。马克思和恩格斯并不否认文艺作品的倾向往，但要求文艺家们“在更高得多的程度上用最朴素的形式把最现代的思想表现出来”。这种表现应当是充满生活气息的和现实的。在关于创作方法的论述中，马克思和恩格斯更多地批评了另一种宣传式的文艺作品，这类作品明白地表露出政治倾向而缺乏文艺作品应有的特点。它们不仅妨碍接受者对文艺交往形态的本质认识，也使接受者对宣传内容反感。
