老熊维尼和卜卜的亲子阅读

Where the Sidewalk Ends,是Shel Silverstein的作品。

真是一个怪才。图文俱佳，和图和文之间的水乳交融关系，真是让人叹为观止。

今天组织卜卜班里同学出去玩，一位妈妈说起这么大的孩子的阅读口味，只喜欢马小跳之类，对诗不感兴趣。我说，那是因为没有看到适龄的幽默诗。比如Shel Silverstein的。

一只庞大的河马无辜地立着，一根绳在背上和肚皮各绑了一片面包。旁边是这样一首诗：

Recipe for a Hippopotamus Sandwich

A hippo sandwich is easy to make.

All you do is simply take

One slice of bread,

One slice of cake,

Some mayonnaise,

One onion ring,

One hippopotamus,

One piece of string,

A dash of pepper—

That ought to do it.

And now comes the problem…

Biting into it!
