Children age 5 and up will enjoy this magnificent, sensitive book and so will their parents and teachers
2009/10/20
形式:ハードカバー
"The House" is a beautifully illustrated poem that tells the story of a house made of stone and wood in 1656 and pictures moments in its rich history up to the 1990's when its crumbling remains are replowed and reborn anew in 1999 to become another incarnation of home. The illustrations complement the sensitive quatrains of verse perfectly. Children will examine each two page painting in minute detail, delighting in the wonders displayed in the loving history of "The House." Children age 5 and up will enjoy this magnificent, sensitive book and so will their parents and teachers.

A Marriage of Poety and Art
2009/8/26
形式:ハードカバー
The simple, two-word title and Innocenti's powerful cover art invite the reader to wonder about "the house"...what is this book about? Who are these people? How are they related to the house? A single page of text in the voice of the house as of 2009 (but built in 1656) foreshadows that the reader will learn much about the history of the house. The framed, small illustrations starting in 1900 on the left page focus on the lives of the people. Lewis's quatrains on the right share insights about the house that are then given new meaning on the following wordless two-page spread. Readers are immersed in the art, answering some questions and creating new ones as they study the house and the people in the illustrations. The pattern of poetry and art continue through the 20th century clearly demonstrating that a picture is worth a thousand words and masterfully written poems are worth the same. It's interesting that the poetry has a universal quality and could be illustrated in many, many ways but the marriage of the quatrains with Innocenti's art creates a true picturebook as the two combined offer a meaning greater than either alone.

So much to appreciate in this gem of a picture book!
2010/3/24
形式:ハードカバー
This is definitely one of my favorite picture books of all time! It is the story of a house built in 1656, and the house itself 'narrates' its history in the first few centuries after it was constructed - it endured the plague, inclement weather, and finally (perhaps most tragically) faces desolation when it is abandoned. However, hope springs again with the passage of time as at the beginning of the 20th century, in the year 1900, the house once again feels "life" seeping back into its structure as humans begin the process of reconstruction.
There are many things to appreciate in this book of wonders (for truly it is a treasure that can be perused and browsed through again and again, yielding new insights each time) - there are the beautiful and poetic quatrains of poet J. Patrick Lewis that tell readers of the transformations taking place over the years, as well as of the events that occur in the house and its surroundings (weddings, war, etc.). All of these are beautifully conveyed through the lyrical quatrains.
Then there are the gorgeous double spreads of the house, beautifully illustrated and pictured with great detail by artist Roberto Innocenti. My five-year-old may not appreciate the deeper meanings within the quatrains, but she loved the illustrations. We spent almost an hour browsing through the pictures, and she found great pleasure in identifying the changes that occurs around the house and within it- as well as other subtle changes, e.g. the fact that the toadstools that are found in abundance slowly give way to other types of vegetation; the changes in people's manner of dressing over the years; even the family cat which changes from one to another! Such treasures to be uncovered - I have never quite read a book like this before and it is one that I can enjoy again and again. This is a work of art and poetry that can be kept and appreciated for years to come, the sort of book I picture handing down through the generations. A true classic indeed!
