● 內文簡介

暢銷得獎童書作家Jennifer Ward與得獎插畫藝術家Susie Ghahremani攜手合作的系列兒童繪本《什麼要從地上長出來了呢?》(What will Grow?)以及《什麼要從蛋裡孵出來了呢?》(What will Hatch?),以溫暖柔和的圖畫,加上富有詩意的文字,描繪自然界中動植物的生長。讓孩子們對於周遭環境有更多的認識。

期待蛋殼裡的小生命孵化出來,是一件再令人期待不過的事了!各式各樣的生物們,在蛋殼的保護下長大,幻化成長大後的模樣,接著賣力的破殼而出。從海灘上的小海龜、池塘裡的小蝌蚪、嫩葉上的毛毛蟲,到樹枝上的小鳥兒…全都是從不同的蛋中孵化出來的。

書中迷人可愛的插圖,搭配有趣的設計,讓家長與孩子們一同猜猜看,這些美麗的蛋,會孵出哪些可愛的生物!

● 媒體報導

"Quietly lovely . . . Ghahremani’s art is playful yet refined, and the soft textures of the wood she paints on bring warmth to vignettes of dandelion-laden meadows, pumpkins stalked by a fox, and frosty winter fields. Well-integrated gatefolds add drama to some scenes . . . An enchanting vision of how strikingly different seeds and plants can be." - starred review, Publishers Weekly



"This bucolic companion to Ward’s What Will Hatch? captures the magic and excitement of planting a garden and waiting for it to bloom . . . Four gatefold illustrations will appeal to children’s sense of wonder, and informative back matter instructs aspiring gardeners on when and how to sow the showcased seeds." - starred review, School Library Journal



"Rich with organic material, this choice is as warm and patient as the ground that nurtures the seeds to new life." - Kirkus Reviews



"Featuring rounded, simplified botanical forms, the book’s decorative gouache paintings are playful and satisfying . . . A satisfying, interactive picture book for reading aloud." - Booklist
