| 总结: | "In prose and through personal stories, some told by children, Beth Kephart affirms the imagination as the heart of our ability to emphathize with others, to appreciate the world, and to envision possibilities of the future. The star of her story is fourteen years old - a child who at first resists storytelling, preferring more objective and orderly pursuits, but later enthusiastically participates in a neighborhood book club/writing group and aspires to follow Steven Spielberg into moviemaking." "As the debate over how children spend their time and how quickly they are expected to grow up intensifies, Kephart goes to the heart of today's concerns while offering concrete examples of how to inspire children to read and write and dream."--BOOK JACKET. |
