Stunning and unique mixed media collages will amaze readers in this powerful, eco-conscious picture book by the internationally renowned Jeannie Baker.
In this visually compelling look at our changing environment by Jeannie Baker, illustrator of the critically-acclaimed Mirror and Where the Forest Meets the Sea, a mother and baby look through a window at a view of wilderness and sky as far as the eye can see. With each page, the boy grows and the scene changes.
At first, in a clear patch of forest, a single house appears. A few years pass and there is a village in the distance... When the boy is twenty, will he recognize the view from his window? Illustrated with elaborate and gorgeous collage constructions, Window is a wordless picture book that speaks volumes.
在這本具有強大影響力及環保意識的繪本中,吉妮.貝克透過令人讚嘆和特別的多媒體混合拼貼手法,帶給讀者耳目一新的驚奇感。
吉妮.貝克為廣受好評的作品《Mirror and Where the Forest Meets the Sea》的插畫家,她在《Window》一書中透過視覺呈現,迫使人們看見我們所身處的環境改變。本書中,一位母親抱著一個嬰兒,透過窗戶看著原野和天際。一頁一頁翻下去,小男孩逐漸長大,而景觀也有所改變。
一開始,一片綠意盎然的森林和一間房子出現在眼前。幾年過去了,在不遠處,出現了一個小村落。男孩到了二十歲,他會認得以前從窗外看出去的景色嗎?在這本無字圖畫書中,精巧美麗的拼貼構圖傳達了意義深遠、值得讓人省思的議題。
