옆집 아저씨랑 함께 신나게 뱃놀이를 떠나는 동네 꼬마들 이야기. 갓 말 배운 어린이의 말투처럼 짧고 어눌하게 쓰여 있는 문장이 어린이에게 친숙함을 느끼게 해주고, 짧은 문장을 통해서도 남에게 무언가를 부탁할 때에 지켜야 할 말 예절을 은근히 가르치고 있다. 1971년 케이트 그린어웨이 상 수상.
Mr. Gumpy's Outing is a Boston Globe-Horn Book Award winner and an American Library Association Notable Children's Book. In England, illustrator John Burningham, with Mr. Gumpy's Outing, became the first artist ever to win England's Kate Greenaway Medal twice.
Mr. Gumpy lives by a river. One sunny day he decides to take a ride in his small boat.
It is such a perfect idea, for such a perfect summer day, that he soon has company: first the children, then the rabbit, the cat, the dog, the pig, the sheep, the chickens, and still others until-- Mr. Gumpy's outing comes to an inevitable but not unhappy, conclusion.
"Come for a ride another day," says Mr. Gumpy at the book's end. And young readers will return again and again to this sprightly story with its clever, captivating illustrations that reflect the sunlit quality of a lazy summer afternoon.
