我们确信一本好的书、一个童话,如果在童年的眼前搁放了,那么很可能就把一生的美好方向决定了。——儿童文学作家梅子涵

大名鼎鼎的“纽伯瑞儿童文学奖”已经100岁啦!

 

The Newbery Medal

纽伯瑞儿童文学奖

纽伯瑞奖由美国图书馆儿童服务学会(ALSC)创设于1922年,旨在嘉奖于美国出版的优秀儿童文学作品。它是第一个世界级童书大奖,在全球各地都享有极高的认可度。

奖项以英语世界的“儿童文学之父”约翰·纽伯瑞的名字命名。他在18世纪开办了第一间儿童读物印刷厂和第一家童书书店,累计发售100多种平价童书,深受孩子欢迎。

其“快乐至上、寓教于乐”的教育理念打破当时严肃保守的社会风气,开辟英美儿童文学的创作新路。

 

△John Newbery, 1713-1767

一个世纪以来,数百部优质童书从评选中脱颖而出,组成孩子们流连忘返的精神宝库。

在时间洗练下,这些作品的光芒愈加耀眼,每个故事都堪称滋养童年、助力成长的当世经典,蕴含着发掘自我、发现世界的无穷智慧。

孩子深谙“如果有一天”的通关密语,经由幻想世界的大门深入一场又一场图文并茂的奇幻历险记,尽情探索未知疆域,学习解决问题的方法和创造未来的能力……

○ 如果有一天,你的好朋友突然遭遇生死存亡的大危机,只有你能救他,却必须付出沉重代价。你会怎样抉择,你们的友谊还能否牢固不变?

 

 

○ 如果有一天,一座博物馆向你敞开大门,你可以在游人如织的展馆内美美地“借宿”几晚,还能化身“福尔摩斯”参与探案,你会如何抓住这个机会?

 

 

如果有一天,你“挖”到了一个震惊世界的秘密,你是否有胆量深入调查蛛丝马迹,又是否有智慧揭开层层迷雾,让埋藏数百年的真相重见天日?

 

 

作为权威、标杆的童书大奖,纽伯瑞奖坚持“以儿童为中心”的评选准则,正如ALSC主席柯比·麦柯蒂斯所说:“致力于为孩子们发掘更广阔的表达和故事。”

获奖图书无论是语言难度、内容深度还是题材广度,都十分契合儿童认知水平,其影响和价值超越国界!

在美国,大大小小的儿童阅览室内几乎都有专门摆放纽伯瑞奖获奖图书的书架;我国教育部也将纽伯瑞奖获奖作品纳入《中小学生阅读指导目录》中,推荐给全国的小读者们。

更有教育学者和儿童文学专家盛赞:“宝藏”童书触及青少年成长教育的深处,带来对生活和生命的丰富体验。

○“这实在是一本宝书。”——复旦大学教授严峰评《夏洛的网》

○“经典的书会随着我们的生命长大。”——儿童文学作家梅子涵评《时代广场的蟋蟀》

○“简单的情节并不影响故事的惊心动魄,触及到青少年成长教育的深处。”——国际安徒生奖得主、儿童文学作家曹文轩评《手斧男孩》

○“一本如同高难度拼图的童书。它尊重你的智商,检验你的智商,挑战你的智商。”——儿童文学作家彭懿评《洞》

○“一部没有任何说教的成长教育笔记,无论大人还是孩子都能受益匪浅。”——豆瓣读者“巴伐利亞酒神”评《坟场之书》

○“可以在这个故事里找到如何进行日常生活的观察与写作,这是很多小学中年级的孩子最缺乏的。”——豆瓣读者“种瓜得瓜”评《市场街最后一站》

"You have been my friend," replied Charlotte. "That in itself is a tremendous thing. I wove my webs for you because I liked you. After all, what's a life, anyway? We're born, we live a little while, we die. A spider's life can't help being something of a mess, with all this trapping and eating flies. By helping you, perhaps I was trying to lift up my life a trifle. Heaven knows anyone's life can stand a little of that."

Traffic came to a standstill. The buses, the cars, men and women walking—everything stopped. And what was strangest of all, no one minded. Just this once, in the very heart of the busiest of cities, everyone was perfectly content not to move and hardly to breathe. And for those few minutes, while the song lasted, Times Square was as still as a meadow at evening, with the sun streaming in on the people there and the wind moving among them as if they were only tall blades of grass.

Mr. Murry bent over her, massaging her cold fingers. She could not see his face. "My daughter, I am not a Mrs. Whatsit, a Mrs. Who, or a Mrs. Which. Yes, Calvin has told me everything he could.

"The adventure is over. Everything gets over, and nothing is ever enough. Except the part you carry with you. It’s the same as going on a vacation. Some people spend all their time on a vacation taking pictures so that when they get home they can show their friends evidence that they had a good time. They don’t pause to let the vacation enter inside of them and take that home."

Terabithia was their secret, which was a good thing, for how could Jess have ever explained it to an outsider? Just walking down the hill toward the woods made something warm and liquid steal through his body. The closer he came to the dry creek bed and the crab apple tree rope the more he could feel the beating of his heart. He grabbed the end of the rope and swung out toward the other bank with a kind of wild exhilaration and landed gently on his feet, taller and stronger and wiser in that mysterious land.

At dark he settled in again for the night, next to the fire with the stack of short pieces ready to put on, and he ate the rest of the raspberries. During all the work of the day his leg had loosened but it still ached a bit, and he rubbed it and watched the fire and thought for the first time since the crash that he might be getting a handle on things, might be starting to do something other than just sit.

He forced his eyes open as they went downward, downward, sliding, and all at once he could see lights, and he recognized them now. He knew they were shining through the windows of rooms, that they were the red, blue, and yellow lights that twinkled from trees in places where families created and kept memories, where they celebrated love.

Stanley had no trouble falling asleep, but morning came much too quickly. Every muscle and joint in his body ached as he tried to get out of bed. He didn't think it was possible but his body hurt more than it had the day before. It wasn't just his arms and back, but his legs, ankles, and waist also hurt. The only thing that got him out of bed was knowing that every second he wasted meant he was one second closer to the rising of the sun. He hated the sun.

There was a passport in his bag, money in his pocket. There was a smile dancing on his lips, although it was a wary smile, for the world is a bigger place than a little graveyard on a hill; and there would be dangers in it and mysteries, new friends to make, old friends to rediscover, mistakes to be made and many paths to be walked before he would, finally, return to the graveyard or ride with the Lady on the broad back of her great grey stallion.

I waited for Miss Volker to continue but she had run out of gas and slumped back into her chair. "That's all I have to say," she said. "Mrs. Droogie was a lovely woman who proved that you don’t have to do what your parents want or what your boyfriend wants for you to be happy. You just have to be yourself, for there is no love greater than self-love."

And in the darkness, the rhythm lifted CJ out of the bus, out of the busy city.

He saw sunset colors swirling over crashing waves.

Saw a family of hawks slicing through the sky.

Saw the old woman's butterflies dancing free in the light of the moon.

CJ's chest grew full and he was lost in the sound and the sound gave him the feeling of magic.
