具体描述
Do you want to know what life has in store? It's all here in this book. All the little things we learn in the course of our lives. A page a year, from nought to a hundred.
5: You learn that boys and girls fall in love. Incredible!
13: When will your parents learn? Not in front of your friends.
36: A dream came true, but it feels different than you thought.
45: Do you like yourself as you are?
75: You learn to unlearn things. Can you still do a somersault?
86: Everything can be different in every moment.
How does our perception of the world change in the course of a lifetime? When Heike Faller's niece was born she began to wonder what we learn in life, and how we can talk about what we have learnt with those we love. And so she began to ask everyone she met, what did you learn in life? Out of the answers of children's writers and refugees, teenagers and artists, mothers and friends, came 99 lessons: that those who have had a difficult time appreciate the good moments more. That those who have had it easy find it harder getting old. That a lot of getting old is about accepting boundaries. And of course, as one 94 year old said to her, 'sometimes I feel like that little girl I once was, and I wonder if I have learned anything at all.'
A bestseller in Germany, HUNDRED is a book given by children to grandparents and the other way around, for christenings and Mother's days, significant birthdays and times of celebration. With every age beautifully illustrated by Valerio Vidali, Hundred cannot simply be read because, like life itself, it must be experienced.
用户评价
##好温暖的一本书
##读了英文版 内容和我预想的不太一样 果然绘本还是要买纸质书来读的
##The most significant value of this book, in my personal opinion, is what the writer wrote in the final letter, to make people think about what they've learnt in their lifetime. And the most beautiful part of this book is the part that has not been touched upon, our personal reflections and feelings about our life.
##在挑战极限的日子刚刚结束的时候收到此书，立刻读完，顿时relief，睡了三周以来最安稳的一觉
##无数难以理解的社会新闻扑面而来的日子里 汲取一些温馨治愈的力量 读完是平静快乐充实 充分与友好人类紧密连结的一生 有黑莓果酱见证
##庸庸碌碌匆匆忙忙的一生 从中学到了什么呢？获得了什么呢？可能什么也没学到 什么也没学会 才会在再投胎时选做了人……
##英国买的英文版，还有一个西班牙语版本。觉得中文译名不对，并不是你想怎么过。更多的是在不同的年纪，自己因为那个年纪而变换的perspective。看完发现自己30岁果然有着30岁该有的烦恼，40岁的生活很远又很近。50以后的生活却没什么共鸣，可能要以后再翻看。不过不变的是，like yourself the way you are和live in the present
##学会了对大小事感到感恩
##Happiness is relative.
