简介:
《水孩子》为英国十九世纪著名作家查尔斯·金斯利的一部儿童文学经典名著,亦为其儿童文学创作的代表作。书中从头到尾充满着春风般轻快的情调。作者始终感觉在为自己的孩子写书,语调轻松而幽默,读来亲切。另外,由于金斯利平时爱好自然,同时也是个博物学家,所以书中关于自然界的描写都极其真实而生动。可以说,这是一本根据19世纪中叶的科学成就写成的童话。书中有不少讽喻和劝诫的成分,但那些劝诫寓于故事中,幽默风趣,寄托了作者对所有孩子的希望。本书为英文原版,同时提供配套朗读免费下载,扫描图书封底二维码即可直接进入收听页面。让读者在阅读精彩故事的同时,亦能提升英文阅读水平。TheWater-Babiesisanovelpublishedin1863byEnglishauthorandreverendCharlesKingsley.Thisnovelishismostfamousworkanditisachildren’sfable,amoralstoryandaresponsetoCharlesDarwin’stheoryofevolution.ThebookisalsoasatireofVictorianEnglandandtheissuesofchildlabourandpovertyatthattime.TheWater-BabiesisthestoryofTomthechimneysweepwhofallsunderwaterandbecomesawaterbaby.Tomhasmanyadventuresandmeetsotherwaterbabieswhileheundergoesamoralevolutionand,eventually,travelstotheendoftheworld.TheWater-BabiesisaclassicofBritishchildren’sliterature,anditinfluencedlegalreformtolimitchildlabourinEnglandthroughoutthe1860sand1870s.IthasbeensaidthatthebookinfluencedLewisCarroll’swritingofAlice’sAdventuresinWonderland,whichwaspublishedtwoyearsafterTheWater-Babies.Thebook’spopularityhasenduredandithasbeenadaptedintoamusical,aplay,aradioseriesonBBCandananimatedfilm.Thenovelremainsaclassictaleofmoralredemptionthatteacheschildrenacrosstheworldthegoldenrule:todountoothersasyouwouldhavethemdountoyou.
