書籍簡介

這是一本精心製作、獨特講述的圖畫書，講述了一個人如何成長為一名作家，作者是紐伯瑞獎獲獎經典作品《莎拉，平凡而高大》的作者。如果你是一個小女孩，一遍又一遍地聽故事，每天晚上、每天讀書，即使是在她媽媽帶她過馬路的時候，你也可能是我，一個作家。

A well crafted, uniquely told picture book about how someone might grow up to be a writer, from the author of the Newbery Award - winning classic Sarah, Plain and Tall. If you were a little girl who listened to stories over and over and over and who read books every night, every day, even as her mother led her across the street, You might be me, a writer.

媒體評價

"MacLachlan journeys through her past--a girl who read constantly, climbed trees, and tried "to teach her dog to talk by moving his lips like hers"--to see what made her the person she became, who "writes about talking dogs/ and chickens who scratch stories in the dirt." Sheban's scenes are bathed in golden light, and his faded palette and soft textures evoke a spare upbringing: simple clothing, old cars, a worn-out suitcase."--Publsihers Weekly, starred review

"Lovely scenes are balanced with amusing ones, giving this expressive picture book its irresistible, down-to-earth charm."--Booklist, starred review

"When does someone truly learn the gift of writing and storytelling? Newbery Medalist MacLachlan takes her trademark elegant writing to the picture-book level with this semiautobiographical charmer."--Kirkus Reviews
