作者简介
Virginia Lee Burton (1909-1968) was the talented author and illustrator of some of the most enduring books ever written for children. The winner of the 1942 Caldecott Medal for THE LITTLE HOUSE, Burton's books include heroes and happy endings, lively illustrations, and a dash of nostalgia. She lived with her two sons, Aristides and Michael, and her husband George Demetrios, the sculptor, in a section of Gloucester, Massachusetts, called Folly Cove. Here she taught a class in design and from it emerged the Folly Cove designers, a group of internationally known professional artisans. She is the author of many classic children's picture books, including MIKE MULLIGAN AND HIS STEAM SHOVEL and KATY AND THE BIG SNOW.

From Barnes & Noble The Barnes & Noble Review Lovers of classic picture books, is this the treasury for you! Four of Virginia Lee Burton's timeless tales are now combined into one wonderful anthology, with all the charm and simplicity of years gone by. The author's most famous story, Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel, leads the way and stars Mike and Mary Anne, who dig themselves into a pit and wind up warming town hall meetings. The Little House -- Burton's tale about a country house that gets an unwanted taste of the big city -- follows, with Katy and the Big Snow and Maybelle the Cable Car rounding it all out. Noted children's lit scholar and author Barbara Elleman also provides an insightful introduction to the treasury, describing the history behind Burton's books along with the impact they've made on so many young readers. Just right for Burton fans looking to teach a new generation of readers about stick-to-itiveness and accepting changes, Mike Mulligan and More is a steam-powered good time. Matt Warner Publishers Weekly A handsome, weighty volume preserves the pace and feel of the above title plus three more of the author's best-loved works-Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel (1939); Katy and the Big Snow (1943); and Maybelle the Cable Car (1952)-Mike Mulligan and More: A Virginia Lee Burton Treasury. Barbara Elleman's introduction precedes the quartet of tales. Fewer Reviews Children's Literature In this collection of four short stories by Virginia Lee Burton, the main characters are all inanimate objects such as a house and a cable car. Virginia Lee Burton wrote these stories from 1939 to 1952. This collection brings together her classics, Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel, The Little House, Katy and the Big Snow, and Maybelle the Cable Car, in a current edition that children can enjoy today. These objects go through a "life" journey that shows how objects can be forgotten or tossed aside by some people, while others continue to consider them valuable. Mike Mulligan and His Steam Shovel is a wonderful story that shows how Mike finds another use for his steam shovel once it becomes outdated. In Maybelle the Cable Car, the people of San Francisco are able to save Maybelle from "extinction." She is allowed to continue to work even though technology provides other options for transportation. Virginia Lee Burton brings these inanimate objects to life by giving them feelings of usefulness. These stories are interesting but also beautifully illustrated. Burton surrounds the text with illustrations—a technique that helps bring the objects to life. Children will see how things can continue to be used even when they seem old and out-dated. 2002, Houghton Mifflin Company, Ages 5 to 8. — Shannon Jacobs

据发现早慧的孩子都有一个共同的特点,就是喜欢阅读,古今中外,也有不少因为儿时喜欢阅读而最终走上成功道路的名人。对于孩子来说,阅读不仅仅是一种从阅读内容中获取有用信息的一种方式,而且还是构成他们日常生活的一项重要内容,是促进孩子的人性健康发展的有益方式。孩子在阅读对象的潜移默化之下会慢慢的形成良好的道德感、审美感和意志力。换句话说,阅读对于孩子的情商发展是十分有利的。我们都知道,情商对于一个正在成长的孩子来说,有的时候甚至会比智商更加重要。一个智商高的孩子,如果没有坚强、乐观的性格以及正确的人生观和世界观的辅助的话,是很难真正获得成功的。而这些品格都是应该从小培养的。目前很多家庭也越来越重视幼儿阅读能力的培养,但也要注意方式方法。兴趣是最好的老师,在培养幼儿阅读能力中也是如此,想让孩子爱上阅读,首先要培养孩子的阅读兴趣。1、选择孩子感兴趣的图书;2、父母自己必须喜欢读书;3、让幼儿在游戏中阅读;4、将故事表演出来。可见,阅读是帮助孩子情商发展的一种有效的方式,是引导孩子健康成长的一种重要的方法。优秀的阅读作品会对孩子的情商发展产生不可预计的作用,它们往往具有很强的道德感染力,有一种洗涤心灵、催人向上的力量。
