內容簡介
It's 1936 Flint, Michigan. Times may be hard, and 10-year-old Bud may be a motherless boy, but Bud's got a few things going for him: 1. He has his own suitcase full of special things; 2. He's the author of "Bud Caldwell's Rules and Things for Having a Funner Life and Making a Better Liar Out of Yourself"; 3. His momma never told him who his father was, but she left a clue: posters of Herman E. Calloway and his band of renown, the Dusky Devastators of the Depression. Bud is sure those posters will lead him to his father. Once he decides to hit the road, nothing can stop him, not hunger, not fear, not would-be vampires, not even Herman E. Calloway himself.

精彩書評
"Curtis's magical touch in his debut novel, The Watsons Go to Birmingham1963 (Delacorte, 1995), is once again evident in all its powerful, funny glory in his latest lovely novel. Tenyearold Bud Caldwell, wise beyond his years, is hit particularly hard by the Depression in 1936. Bud has been bounced back and forth between a Flint, Michigan, orphanage and foster care since his mother died when he was six. Fed up with beatings from those who take him in, Bud grabs his few meager treasures and sets out in search of his father. With determination and a cautious but curious spirit, Bud heads for Grand Rapids, home of Herman E. Calloway, legendary bass player and leader of a renowned jazz band. Convinced that Calloway is his longlost father, Bud seeks a reunion. Bud's only guidebook is Bud Caldwell's Rules and Things for Having a Funner Life and Making a Better Liar out of Yourself, his own set of poignant, riotous tips for preserving sanity. In a scene of stunning hilarity, Bud is rescued by Lefty Lewis, who takes Bud to Grand Rapids, where the child learns yet again that life is not always what it seems. Curtis writes with a razorsharp intelligence that grabs the reader by the heart and never lets go. His utterly believable depiction of the selfreliant charm and courage of Bud, not Buddy, puts this highlyrecommended title at the top of the list of books to be read again and again."

《蒲蒲蘭繪本館:你不知道的三個朋友》是一則有關生命教育的繪本。德國繪本大師赫姆?海恩從思想、心靈、身體三個方麵簡要概括瞭人的一生。 身心靈的主題近年來持續大熱,生命背後的哲學意義也在被越來越多的人挖掘。這也成赫姆海恩的作品,好朋友是可以反復讀的,這本書可能是畫的人物是大人形象吧,有種典型的國外漫畫即視感。一般般,有點深意,彆緻的視角,但是不是必備。 為瞭孩子提問最多的話題。 “人為什麼會打嗝?為什麼會生病?”可能每個孩子都問過父母。對於這些問題,赫姆?海恩用他的方式在本書中有著解答。把原本嚴謹的科學問題用童話故事的形式講述給孩子,也許就此會在孩子幼小的心靈深處播下一顆種子,伴著成長而不斷生根、發芽,隨著翼豐滿而領悟齣其中的哲理。

Bud, Not Buddy,紐伯瑞金奬的小說,英語書偏僻單詞較多,我國教材上幾乎沒有齣現過,在美國講是常用字,在我們來說是生詞,故應多讀,大量閱讀
