给孩子看什么书
豆子的英文比我溜多了,但是ESL成绩并是不很好。老师说豆子的听说没问题了,但是读写比较弱,建议每天写一篇日记,读30分钟书。
豆子一直比较喜欢读书。但是面对偌大的图书馆,面对满目的英文书,我们是雷公掉进面缸里不知云里雾里。
谈起经典中文书,哪个爸爸妈妈不是如数家珍。但是,在英文的世界里,我们并不知道哪一本是适合他的读物,选择起来很茫然。有一次他借到了《微光城市》,之前我们看过这个影片,他很喜欢。因此,300多页的书两天读完了。可是后来借的书不是他的兴趣所在,有时候一本书看了两周还没看完。
图书馆曾办了一个针对青少年的读书program,每个月活动一次。第一次,豆子去了。回来说只有志愿者和他两个人。志愿者教他如何在图书馆找到“不用归还的书”,豆子乐坏了。但是由于参加的人过于少(可能只有豆子一个人),这个program消失了。非常遗憾!
守着大海,却被渴死?
为此,我求助于我在美国的好友阿丁。她老公是美国帅哥,而且是酷爱读书的帅哥。我请阿丁的老公Kevin帮我开列一个书目:北美青少年成长中必读的书籍。
阿丁及其先生在百忙之中给我整理EMAIL了书目。我想其他移民父母或许用得上,将其附在下面。
书籍是人类最好的朋友,是你的,是我的,也是小朋友的……
