"There's times when keeping your word or doing what's right--hurts."
"...a man doesn't have much in this world that is truly his own. Friends come and go. You can't always depend on them. And there's tons of people who will lie to you. Always somebody trying to cheat you out of something. A fire can burn your house down. Death can take away the people you love."......
"The only thing a man has--the only thing that's really his - is his word. That and his faith......"
from《Pick of the Litter》by Bill Wallace
这是我们在附近的Little Free Library里发现的一本故事书。虽然说是给8-12岁孩子的读物,但既然是宝宝自己选的书(🐶),我们就拿回来了。
这是一本讲一个刚5年纪毕业的小男孩,在暑假期间帮着姥爷一起照顾训练pointing dog的故事。
开始读后慢慢意识到这是本超出我预料的好看的书。作者用词简单,文笔流畅,自然而然的,故事就这么发生着了。
它的寓意在于展现给读者一个小男孩,如何在面临自己最爱的狗狗时,从不理解怨恨,到克制自己,依然做出“对”的选择,做一个诚实且言出必行的人。
。。。孩子的读物总是这样的纯粹简单,却也让大人感触颇深。
