本书是50本奇先生全集
“奇先生妙小姐”畅销40多年,风靡80余国,被译成22种语言,全球销量过2亿册。英国曾列出“二十一世纪前十年最畅销作品”,第一名是“哈利波特”系列,第二名就是这套“奇先生妙小姐”。
“奇先生妙小姐”把人的某一身体特征或性格特征典型化、夸张化,铺陈出好笑的故事。在生活中,大人们也常常感觉到,让幼儿认知实物的特征不难,如,高矮胖瘦、冷热硬软。可是,如果幼儿问起一些抽象词汇,如,糊涂、乐观、荒唐、傲慢,常常是大人解释不清,幼儿理解不易。“奇先生妙小姐”用这些抽象概念作为人物性格特征,制造出故事矛盾,孩子当然乐不可支。
“奇先生妙小姐”的图画简洁,简洁中充满创意,创意中充满乐趣。以圆形为主的形象,让孩子觉得亲切。单纯的颜色,也让孩子易于辨识。

關於作者: |
Born in 1935 in Cleckheaton, West Yorkshire, Charles Roger Hargreaves is
Britain''s third best-selling author of all time having sold more than
100 million books, including all the familiar Mr. Men and Little Miss
characters. Roger Hargreaves followed a career in advertising before
becoming an author and illustrator.
He wrote the first Mr. Men
book in 1971 when his 8 year old son, Adam Hargreaves, asked ''What does a
tickle look like?'' In response, Roger drew a figure with a round orange
body and long, rubbery arms and Mr. Tickle was born.
He
initially had difficulty finding a publisher, but once he did, the books
became an instant success, selling over one million copies within three
years and spawning a BBC animated television series, narrated and
voiced by Arthur Lowe.
