　　《盤中餐》

　　一碗米飯神奇而美麗的故事

　　作　者：于虹呈 圖文

　　本書講述了一碗米飯來歷的神奇而美麗的故事。作者選取被列入世界文化遺產名錄的云南省元陽梯田為背景，以二十四節氣為記錄線索，將中國最傳統的水稻種植和加工方式以及少數民族的特殊農耕文化通過畫面呈現出來，贊譽悠久的中國農耕文明，認識盤中餐的來之不易和農民勞動的艱辛。仁愛、和平，安靜、中庸，以及樂天知命、順應自然，這些民族品性是中國農耕文明留給我們的寶貴遺產。翻開本書，撲面而來的，是土地的清新，是田野的寬廣，還有在這片土地上才能找到的孩子們的純凈笑容!

　　《孟姜女哭長城》

　　孟姜女的悲傷和抹不去的古典

　　作 者: 唐亞明

　　插 畫: 蔡皋

　　表面上看，這還是那個婦孺皆知的孟姜女尋夫送寒衣、哭倒長城八百里的傳統民間故事，可是漸漸地，另一個線索“長城”浮現出來，威嚴肅穆，漫長無邊，走近去瞧瞧，可以看到修筑工地的各種細節，也看到那些勞役的螻蟻人生。這不是那種試圖給孩子們帶來歡笑的圖畫書，但也許是那種不得不給我們的孩子講講的故事。我們從漫長的歷史長河中走過來，背著重重的包袱，至少應該讓孩子們知道，包袱里也有孟姜女的悲傷和抹不去的古典。

　　《恐龍阿瓜和他的大尾巴》

　　充滿了天馬行空的想象力的魔法世界

　　作　者：張嘉驊

　　作者用天馬行空的想象力，為我們搭建了一個魔法世界，這里有“不吃不喝”新奇軟糖，“水底噴火樂園”，“樂不熱熱內褲”，還有每年一度的巫婆招親大會……恐龍阿瓜自命不凡，他每天早晨必做的一件事就是長久地癡癡地望著墻上的自畫像，可是可憐的是，恐龍阿瓜甚至一點也不美，而且還蠢得出奇，最蠢的特征就是永遠在嘲笑別人的愚蠢。倒是它的大尾巴中了魔法后獲得了智慧，而智慧帶來的個問題就是“我是誰”!這恰好就是希臘哲學家蘇格拉底最重要的命題：認識你自己。

　　《野芒坡》

　　兒童的命運、選擇和成長，傳遞信念的光亮

　　作　者：殷健靈

　　一個關于逆境中追求光明和夢想的成長勵志故事，作家遠離兒童文學創作和出版市場中校園小說的熱鬧和喧囂，將目光投向深遠的歷史，描寫特殊的時代背景下，兒童的命運、選擇和成長，傳遞信念的光亮。這是一段獨特歷史的回顧與呈現，是一部關于生命、愛、探索、藝術、良善和道義的小說。小說以主人公幼安的傳奇經歷為主線，描寫他如何自我探索、尋找人生方向的歷程，呈現出一段獨特的歷史，講述了一個穿越百年依然可以在現代大小讀者心中激起共鳴的往事。

　　《仙籃奇劍傳》

　　向金庸致敬的兒童版武俠小說

　　作　者：孫幼軍

　　本書是作者孫幼軍畢生最為珍愛的一部作品，通篇采用章回體，如一部古典文化的通俗讀本，書中有古詩詞，有歷史知識，有民俗，有當時的社會現狀以及方方面面的描寫，被稱為的傳統文化教材。作者用半文言半白話的文字，講述了南宋年間一對少男少女行俠仗義的故事，是一場驚心動魄的奇幻傳奇。故事里有幾分驚險，幾分奇幻，富有童話趣味，字里行間里透著孫幼軍自己獨特的幽默。新版本分為上下兩卷，采用中國古籍中的設計元素，雙色印刷，書卷氣十足。

　　A Jia, a specialist in children’s reading, and a guest lecturer at JOY EL has shared with us a recommended bilingual reading list. It includes classics, historical novels, magic stories, Kungfu legends and illustrated books. A Jia hopes that when students start to read, they will escape into a world of fantasy and find that their world is enriched because of it. He believes that as long as the book is good, the beauty of reading will naturally lead children into a wonderful habit of reading.

　　A Little History of the World

　　from the Stone Age to the atomic bomb

　　by E. H. Gombrich

　　R

　　Gombrich’s bestselling history of the world for young readers tells the story of mankind from the Stone Age to the atomic bomb, focusing not on small detail but on the sweep of human experience, the extent of human achievement, and the depth of its frailty. The product of a generous and humane sensibility, this timeless account makes intelligible the full span of human history. In forty concise chapters, Gombrich tells the story of man from the stone age to the atomic bomb. In between emerges a colorful picture of wars and conquests, grand works of art, and the spread and limitations of science. This is a text dominated not by dates and facts, but by the sweep of mankind’s experience across the centuries, a guide to humanity’s achievements and an acute witness to its frailties.
