暢銷繪本大師喬尼．蘭伯特Jonny Lambert
繼《吼!我生氣了》、《什麼聲音? AAA-OOO!》後
又一經典兒童繪本作品──闡述﹝警覺心/安全教育﹞之意涵

　　【警覺心/安全教育】
　　太陽漸漸下山，天就快黑了，
　　老鼠決定帶著兔子和烏龜走捷徑——穿越河流回家。

　　兔子問:「聽說這條河裡有鱷魚?」
　　老鼠堅定地說:「不怕，我從來沒有在這條河看過鱷魚。」

　　於是，牠們鼓起勇氣向前走。
　　先是走在一節一節凹凸不平的橋上，
　　接著抓著會彎曲擺動的藤蔓向前盪，
　　還踩在黏黏滑滑的木頭上。
　　奇怪的是，這一路上牠們真的沒有看到鱷魚，
　　但卻越走越讓人感到害怕……

　　◎引導閱讀
　　★親子共讀的過程中，可以教育孩子在陌生環境中，要保有警覺心。
　　★可愛鮮明的動物插畫，讓美感與童趣融入閱讀中。
　　★簡單的文字描述，讓親子共讀時更容易模擬情境和明白故事內容。
　　★親子閱讀過程中，可以找找鱷魚到底在哪裡，增添閱讀樂趣。

　　內文從老鼠、兔子和烏龜這三隻動物的對話展開。

　　領頭的老鼠要帶兔子和烏龜橫渡傳聞中「可怕的鱷魚溪」，老鼠用以往的渡河經驗，向兔子和烏龜保證──「這條溪絕對沒有鱷魚！」
　　
　　老鼠一派自信、兔子則是且走且看的跟著老鼠前進，而烏龜則是什麼都不知道，一臉天然呆(但最後看起來，是這隻呆烏龜最有警覺心啊!)。

　　故事進展實在非常爆笑，兔子和烏龜這呆萌二人組，每每上一秒才問老鼠鱷魚長什麼樣子?下一秒，老鼠形容的部分特徵就馬上出現眼前！但因為他們都沒看過真正的鱷魚長什麼樣子，所以仍是傻呼呼的繼續一步步往前進……

　　聰明的讀者，應該已經都看出來情況不尋常，也早看出了畫面中的「可怕生物」是什麼，然後忍不住竊笑，但故事裡的主角仍是渾然不覺，最後就這樣走進了鱷魚的嘴巴裡!

　　生活中也常常隱藏著各種危機，但孩子很可能會因為受到同儕的勸誘，而選擇忽略各種警訊。希望藉由這樣趣味的情節，讓小讀者們開心閱讀同時，也認知到留意周遭環境安全的重要，當自身遭遇到不尋常的情況時，能多一份警覺。

　　對了，故事最後，自認聰明的老鼠又要帶大家去走另一條「安全」的小路，也保證沒有老虎……讀到這裡，記得問問孩子:「你相信嗎?」

讀者評論

　　「這真是一本有趣的書！我3歲和7歲的孩子喜歡閱讀本書。他們喜歡扮演烏龜、兔子和老鼠的角色，並為本書結尾處的『鱷魚大嘴巴』那一幕做好準備。」──goodreads ／Katie Watkins
　　「我的女兒真的很喜歡這本書。 她一直問我『為什麼他們沒有注意到鱷魚？』 哈！ 對於年幼的讀者來說，這是一部非常適合朗讀的可愛作品。」──goodreads ／Brittany

學說好話 從小就應該開始
學會友善的對人 是一種好能力

一個人說話的方式、語氣，是從小耳濡目染來的。現在的生活裡、媒體裡，處處充滿了惡言惡語，影響著孩子們說話的方式。我們該如何引導孩子找回人與人之間的善意？學著說友善的話呢？便是這本書的重點。
故事中，首先以一個問題開始：友善的話是什麼呢？接著，爸爸再問孩子：「如何說出友善的話？」然後，爸爸便帶著兒子出去散步，展開一段學習如何待人友善、對人說好話的旅程。
這一對父子在路上所看到的人與人之間的友善對話與互動，繪者以細膩的圖像把很多細節表現出來。比如一個溜著滑板的小男孩，遠遠的看見一個老人從超市買了菜出來，便揮著手說：「我來幫忙！」，陌生人在車上彼此讓座，告訴剛上車的人「這裡有位子！」，也有人對著正在學騎腳踏車的小孩喊加油。

透過這些善舉和友善的對話，整本書每一個頁面都色彩繽紛，洋溢著歡樂友善的氣息。在故事的最後一頁，也就是爸爸和孩子散完步後，回到家門口，繪者以一張跨頁的大圖呈現出了整個城市的景象，每個人和諧的在城市中進行著各種活動，而整個城市看起來，正像是一座遊樂場呢！這也說明了「友善」會為我們的周遭帶來歡樂與美好。
本書作者在最後還附上了如何引導孩子觀察周遭景況、學習以友善的話語自我表達的小技巧，非常實用。

英國森寶利童書獎作家
給孩子的爆笑生活教育主題繪本

～推薦給　老是為了幫孩子找廁所而崩潰的爸媽
引導孩子學習﹝公共禮儀﹞＆﹝急而不亂﹞的智慧

　　【公共禮儀／急而不亂】
　　小嬰猴出門前不去尿尿，出了門才急著到處找廁所。
　　他忍著尿意，到處尋找。
　　好不容易找到了一個樹洞，卻是老鼠的家；
　　他又來到一處樹叢，裡頭竟然有熊先他一步了！
　　為了遵守公共禮儀，不能想尿就尿，
　　小嬰猴只好一直憋尿，他真的很急很急……
　　最後，他終於找到了廁所，立刻一溜煙衝了進去，
　　沒想到，卻發生了更「緊急」的事件……

　　◎引導閱讀
　　相信大家應該都有這樣的經驗：遇到尿急的時候，卻遲遲找不到廁所，真的是會令人很崩潰！

　　這本超級爆笑的繪本，從封面開始，就完全可以感受到我們主角的焦急，緊接著翻開書頁，便會一路看到小嬰猴瘋狂找廁所的過程，緊湊的情節，搭配上生動趣味的插圖，不管是人物的動作或表情，處處都充滿了喜感，讓讀者在邊笑邊同情主角的過程中，莫名地也覺得好是焦急呀！（如同事所說：看完感覺自己也都快要跟著尿急起來了！）

　　非常推薦這本書給老是為了幫孩子找廁所而崩潰的爸媽，也很推薦幼兒園老師在課堂上跟孩子們分享，可以從故事中帶領孩子學習到公共禮儀，（出門在外，不能想尿就尿！一定要在正確的場所喔！）也可以提醒孩子，如果不想像小嬰猴這樣焦急地到處找廁所的話，出門前一定要記得先上個廁所，或是當遇上有廁所的地方時，就要評估一下，等等還會不會有廁所出現？是否現在該先去上一下，以免稍後引發緊急事件。（一樣要記得，上廁所要乖乖排隊喔！）

　　甚至，是在上廁所的同時，也要留意一下自己的生理狀況，是不是真的只想要小號呢？不要跟小嬰猴一樣，只顧著急匆匆地解決了其中一項生理需求，卻又立即陷入另一個「找廁所地獄」……（此處不完全劇透！請自行看最爆笑結尾）

　　在和孩子討論完生理面的注意事項時，爸媽們也可以趁機來個機會教育，做一些思考面的延伸引導，例如當我們在想要解決一件事情時（包含上廁所和所有事項），雖然情況很緊急，但也要按照正確的方式做處理，不能隨便解決，因為這樣可能會導致不好的結果；而在做一件事情的當下，也要記得想一想，接下來還有沒有要處理的事情？還有什麼需要考慮的？急而不亂，才能準備計畫得更周全。

　　值得一提的是，這本書的前後扉頁設計了一個挺有意思的彩蛋，即是畫出了搭配各種動物體型的「造型廁所」，同時介紹了各種廁所的名稱，讓孩子認識除了「廁所」，還可以有「洗手間」、「盥洗室」等各種不同講法，是蠻有趣的日常生活知識擴充。

　　更好玩的另一點是，前頭的扉頁上，畫的每一間廁所都是關著門的，所以可以讓孩子玩個小遊戲，先觀察各間廁所的造型，再猜一猜這可能是哪一種動物的廁所；書頁最後的扉頁，則會出現透視圖來揭曉答案，讓讀者清楚看到正在裡面上廁所的分別是哪些動物，實在挺有趣的。（但是哎呀……非禮勿視！記得跟動物們說聲抱歉，因為這也是公共禮儀的一種呀！）

　　＊適讀年齡：適合3歲以上親子共讀
