Eric Carle의 다른 책처럼 강렬한 톤의 동물들이 눈길을 끕니다. 작은 사내아이가 나와 마임을 하듯 여러 동물흉내를 냅니다.머리끝에서 발끝까지 주욱 훑어 주면... 펭귄은 고개를 빙글빙글,기린은 아치처럼 목을 구부리고, 버팔로는 마치 알겠다는 듯 어깨를 들썩이기조차 합니다. 원숭이는 팔을 흔들고, 물개는 박수를,고릴라는 가슴을 쾅쾅 칩니다. 한껏 등을 구부린 고양이와 엉덩이 춤을 추는 악어, 낙타는 무릎을 구부리고 잘 준비를 하나 봅니다. 나귀까지 나와 발길질을 하면 이제 동물원에서 제일 큰 코끼리가 발을 구르며 나타납니다.이제 끝난걸까요?
아까 작은 아이가 한 번 더 나와 발가락을 높이 들고 흔들며 묻습니다. "Can you do it?" 물론이죠. "I can do it. I can do it!"
상세이미지
What does an elephant do? It stomps its foot. Can you? From the creator of such beloved classics as The Grouchy Ladybug and The Mixed-Up Chameleon comes this interactive story that invites kids to imitate animal movements. Watching giraffes bend their necks or monkeys wave their arms is fun, but nothing could be better than joining in. From their heads down to their toes, kids will be wriggling, jiggling, and giggling as they try to keep up with these animals!Alligators wiggle, elephants stop, gorillas thump, and giraffes bend. Can you do it? ‘ I can do it!’ is the confidence-building message of this fun-filled interactive picture book. A variety of familiar animals invite young children to copy their antics, and as they play, they will learn such important skills as careful listening, focusing attention, and following instructions. Just as alphabet books introduce the very young child to letters and simple words, From Head to Toe introduces the basic body parts and simple body movements. And in the same way that children progress from understanding simple words to reading and writing sentences and stories, so they will progress from simple body movements to dancing, gymnastics, and other sports and activities, with confidence and pleasure.
Eric Carle's colorful collages have delighted children for more than a generation. Each book provides hours of fun while encouraging them to stretch their imaginations. His matchless words and illustrations now send out a new challenge:
Are you ready?
Here we go!
