內容簡介

Who’s having a lucky day is in this clever, hilarious trickster tale?

When a delicious-looking piglet knocks on Mr. Fox’s door "accidentally," the fox can hardly believe his good luck. It’s not every day that dinner just shows up on your doorstep. It must be his lucky day! Or is it?

Before Mr. Fox can say grace, the piglet has manipulated him into giving him a fabulously tasty meal, the full spa treatment (with bath and massage), and . . . freedom.

In a funny trickster tale of her own, Kasza keeps readers guessing until the surprise ending when they’ll realize it was piglet’s lucky day all along.

 

作者簡介

Keiko Kasza was born on a small Japanese island in the Inland Sea of Japan. She grew up in a typical Japanese extended family with her parents, two brothers, and grandparents. Uncles, aunts, and cousins also lived nearby. "All the steps I took growing up were very normal," Ms. Kasza says. "The only unusual thing I did was go to college in the United States." She graduated with a degree in graphic design from California State University at Northridge. Ms. Kasza married an American, and the United States has been her home ever since.

After publishing five children’s books in Japan and working as a graphic designer for fourteen years, Ms. Kasza decided in 1988 to devote her time to picture books. She says, "Having two small boys and two professions was too much to handle."

Ms. Kasza admires many great picture-book creators, such as Leo Lionni and Maurice Sendak, but says that the work of Arnold Lobel has influenced her the most. The subtle humor and warmth he created in his books continues to inspire me," she says. "I often go back to his work when I get discouraged or lose confidence."

Ms. Kasza compares the process of making a book to acting on stage under the lights:
"I become the character that I’m working on at that moment. I pretend that I’m a bird looking for a mother, or a pig trying to impress his girlfriend. When I’m acting, I’m a child myself."

Ms. Kasza’s ambition is not to create a hundred books, but to "create one really good book that will be kept on the family bookshelves for generations, although a hundred really good books would be even better, of course!"

Keiko Kasza lives in Indiana with her husband and two sons.

我在買這本書之前,大概看了故事內容介紹,覺得小豬很奸詐,給小孩看這種故事,好像是要教小孩欺騙別人。

不過,看完故事,覺得我是多慮了,或許小豬的出發點或許非出於善意,但我們可以把它單純以一個幽默有梗的故事來看待,並向小豬學習機智、謀略的優點。

再仔細想想,小豬下一次,還會如此順利嗎?
小豬這次計畫成功也不過是「運氣好」罷了,或許改天小豬就會遇到一口把牠吃掉的動物。
聰明反被聰明誤,通常這種「奧步」應該會傳的人盡皆知,別人也不會再上當了。

這也是讀故事有趣之處,從不同角度來解讀小豬,有很多可以討論的地方。

對於4歲的阿妮,不會像大人想那麼多,阿妮喜歡故事主軸--「小豬展現機智」的部分,覺得很好笑。
共讀之後,我演狐狸、她演小豬(把小豬改成公主),趣味十足,尤其是狐狸幫小豬按摩那一段,小孩都會覺得按摩很癢而哈哈大笑。
