The classic tale of a peddler, some monkeys and their monkey business.

作者簡介

Esphyr Slobodkina (the name is pronounced ess-FEER sloh-BOD-kee-nah) was born in the Siberian town of Chelyabinsk on Sept. 22, 1908.

Esphyr immigrated to the United States on a student visa at the age of 29. She enrolled at the National Academy of Design, NYC, and in the 1930s, she worked painting lamp shades and soon after murals for the WPA. Esphyr was a founding member of the American Abstract Artists, which began amid controversy in 1936.

In 1937 Slobodkina met the children's author Margaret Wise Brown. In an effort to find work as an illustrator, Slobodkina wrote and illustrated a story with collage called Mary And The Poodies to present to Brown. This began a new career for Slobodkina, who illustrated many children's stories for Ms. Brown (including Sleepy ABCs and the Big and Little series) while still continuing her work as an abstract artist.

In her autobiography, (portions available through this web-site) Ms. Slobodkina wrote, "When Margaret died, I was left without a writer, and since she always insisted that she liked the way I told my stories, I took a deep breath and began to send them to my agent." Ms. Slobodkina took her responsibility as a children's book author seriously. In her memoir she wrote: "The verbal patterns and the patterns of behavior we present to children in these lighthearted confections are likely to influence them for the rest of their lives. These aesthetic impressions, just like the moral teachings of early childhood, remain indelible."

Caps for Sale was first published in 1938. Since then it has sold more than two million copies. Today it is considered a children's book classic as generation after generation pass the story along to new readers. In sales it ranks with such classics as Good Night Moon, according to Publisher's Weekly.

Caps for Sale, won a Lewis Carroll Shelf Award in 1958 and is memorialized in a painting by Ms. Slobodkina on permanent exhibition in the West Hartford Library, CT.

Ms. Slobodkina wrote and illustrated numerous other books, including Mary and The Poodies (1937), The Wonderful Feast, (1955), The Clock (1956), The Long Island Ducklings (1961), and Pezzo the Peddler and the Circus Elephant, which was first published in 1967 and was reissued in 2002 as Circus Caps for Sale, to name a few.

At the age of 88, Esphyr's primary focus became overseeing the production of musical storybook cassettes of all twenty of her children's books.

At age 90, Esphyr designed a mini museum in Glen Head, Long Island, NY (through her Slobodkina Foundation) as a place where guests can visit and view more than 200 works of art, her handmade dolls and jewelry, as well as her complete collection of children's storybooks, including some original illustrations.

Famed artist and author Esphyr Slobodkina was a leader of the abstract movement in the United States from the 1930s until her death at age 93 in July 2002.

精彩書評

A Tale of a Peddler, Some Monkeys and Their Monkey Business, this absurd and very simple story has become a classic, selling hundreds of thousands of copies since its first publication in 1940. A peddler walks around selling caps from a tall, tottering pile on his head. Unable to sell a single cap one morning, he walks out into the countryside, sits down under a tree, checks that all the caps are in place, and falls asleep. When he wakes up, the caps are gone--and the tree is full of cap-wearing monkeys. His attempts to get the caps back generate the kind of repetitive rhythm that 3- and 4-year-olds will adore.
--Richard Farr

"From an old folk tale [the author] has fashioned this bright picture book, infusing it with a humor which seems to have sprung from her own hearty enjoyment of the troubles of a peddler with a abnd of monkeys."
--The New York Times

人，最可怕的是靈魂空虛和精神萎縮，隻有讀書纔能充實靈魂和不斷生長的精神。高爾基曾說過：“書籍是人類進步的階梯”。笛卡爾也說過：“讀一本好書，就是和許多高尚的人說話。”莎士比亞說過：“生活裏沒有書籍，就好像沒有陽光；智慧裏沒有書籍，就好像鳥兒沒有翅膀。”我喜歡在燦爛的陽光中，在膝蓋上攤開一本書，聞著薄薄的紙上散發齣淡淡油墨的清香，一旁放上一杯水，聽著風兒吹開書頁的美妙歌聲。%D%A%D%A在讀書中成長，可以放飛你的心緒；在讀書中成長，可以感受你的心境；在讀書中成長，可以打開你的心結。當我打開書的時候，就會聽到許多聲音：有智者娓娓的談心；有勇士激昂的呐喊；有恬美如鞦月的月光麯；有壯烈如大潮的交響樂；有鞦天春花凋零的嘆息；有小鳥歸巢的快樂啾啾。每當雙休日，隻要一有時間，我就會跑到書店去看個痛快。是啊，當你需要幫助時，書會伸齣援助之手；當你感到痛苦時，書會為你撫平傷口；當你在布滿荊棘的人生之路上迷失方嚮時，書猶如一座燈塔，為你指明航嚮。學無止境 ，隻有我們勤奮學習，多看課外書，纔能開闊我們的眼界，纔能培養我們的情操。在成長中，我們要學多少知識和本領，在成長中，隨時隨地都有我們可以學習的知識。書是智慧的結晶，是人類進步的階梯，更是人們的精神糧食。讀書，就是一次與大師的對話，與智者的交流，是一次難得的精神之旅，會讓人收獲非淺。%D%A%D%A我愛讀書，書像一位充滿智慧的老人，不斷地啓迪著我，教育著我，又像是一位真誠的朋友，跟我麵對麵交談。朋友，梅花香自苦寒來，隻有付齣，纔有收獲，如果你堅持不懈在書的海洋裏遨遊，就會嘗到更多閱讀的甜頭。讀書使我成長敞開窗戶,輕風吹起,整個房間都溢滿瞭書的香味。古人雲：“讀書破萬捲，下筆如有神”。是啊，範仲淹曾經劃粥充飢來讀書，最終寫齣瞭膾炙人口的一篇文章——《嶽陽樓記》，好奇妙。俄國作傢彆林斯基說的好：“好的書籍是最寶貴的珍寶”。對啊，文學傢陶淵明最喜歡讀書，每次對書中的內容有所領會時，就會高興的忘記吃飯，所以我們應該好好讀書、多讀書、讀好書，因為書是最貴的珍寶。錢泳也說過：“讀萬捲書，行萬裏路。”的確，古時候的文學傢宋濂不畏嚴寒的藉彆人的書來讀，大冷天的手指都不能屈伸瞭還依然堅持用手把書抄下來。看來，讀書真的可以增長許多知識，讀過一本好書，就象交瞭一個益友，所以，我們一定要讀好書，多讀書。無論是世界名著還是現代小說都會使我們産生許多不同的感觸。我們都會同情高爾基令人發指的童年生活和魯濱孫在荒島上的遭遇；還有羨慕孫悟空一個跟頭就翻瞭十萬八韆裏；還有祥子從一個親切、上進的車夫變成瞭一具失去靈魂的行屍走肉的經曆。每當夜晚，我懷裏都會揣著一本名著品讀。敞開窗戶,輕風吹起,整個房間都溢滿瞭書的香；月光如水，窗外潔白的夜來香隨之搖曳，香味禰謾瞭書房，書香摻拌著花香，讓這夜更幽雅瞭。

學齡前的孩子，會非常喜歡同一本故事書，而一念再念。試想一本故事書一旦說瞭十遍，就算是再小的孩子，都會知道什麼是對的？什麼是錯的？誰是好孩子？誰不該學習？大人也就不必再囉嗦一些連自己都不想聽的大道理瞭。孩子年紀雖小，心思卻是很細密的，我隻是不間斷地念故事書，但孩子大部分的好習慣和好品格，就在不知不覺中慢慢形成瞭。當孩子漸漸大瞭，開始需要教導他們一些規矩時，很神奇的是，我隻要說個幾次，不用費太多唇舌，兩個孩子就能輕易瞭解我的話，並且確實地遵守、執行。連我自己都常常不由得暗自贊嘆，這兩個孩子為什麼有一迴坐捷運，一個小朋友看見空位就一屁股坐上去，完全無視身旁父母的存在。於是，我趁機簡單地跟當時讀幼兒園中班的兒子講解瞭一下；沒想到自此以後，如果捷運上隻有一個空位時，就會聽到一個小男孩大聲地問：姊姊要不要坐？媽媽要不要坐？等我們都搖頭時，纔見他不疾不徐地坐下去，他的禮貌，常常會到其它的乘客。父母在教育孩子的當口，常可能因為太在意孩子當前的問題，有時使齣渾身解數還解決不瞭事情時，牛角尖就會愈鑽愈深，往往造成親子關係兩敗俱傷。殊不見所謂的「橡皮擦媽媽」，每天跟在小學一年級的孩子身邊做功課，孩子寫一個字、媽媽擦一個字，一個邊哭邊寫、一個邊罵邊擦。不知道有多少父母在孩子中、高年級之後纔後悔，很多自己太重視的東西，當時都以為是在幫孩子的忙，其實卻是在不知不覺中扼殺瞭孩子的學習興趣。二十年以後，假設孩子都已經長大、進瞭社會，不論他們從事藍領或白領工作，想要讓事業成功的關鍵因素會是什麼呢？」我喜歡把問題推嚮未來，讓父母跳脫現在，這樣心中的疑問，有時反而會變得明白。學曆、語文、人脈、傢世背景、吃苦耐勞……等，每個人的條件組閤都不相同，但大多數的成功者都有一個共通點：對的態度。如果你是老闆，希望雇用抱持什麼態度的員工呢？每個人心中都有一把尺，即使學曆再高，隻要態度不對，你還會願意雇用他嗎？如果你是個受雇於人的員工，又希望遇上什麼樣的同事呢？是遇事推托、遇錯推諉；還是負責任、願意與人閤作的夥伴呢？態度關係著事業的成功，也關係著傢庭的和諧，根本就是關係著整個人生。像是當今有多少人在使用現金卡或信用卡擴張消費，而金錢觀、價值觀和消費習慣，也是人生態度的一環。如果一個成年人可以去跟人藉錢，隻為瞭買一個名牌包，這樣的人生是否還真的能快樂起來，實在令人存疑。如果二十年後，父母纔發現孩子的人生態度有問題，這樣可就太遲瞭。不趁孩子還是一張白紙時多花些心力，等到人格都已定型後，父母的教育功能早已衰退，對孩子的影響力也已經有限。不要繼續溺愛他、不要繼續幫他處理一筆又一筆的負債，可能是到時候唯一能做的事。
