Ei tämänhetkisiä Keskustelu-viestiketjuja tästä kirjasta. This is not an educational illustrated book, and there isn't a lot to take away from it, other than the lovely illustrations. The story is of two boys, the older boy is more revered than the second. When the second brother falls into the well, despite the mother's every day warning, the oldest boy finds the old man with a ladder who assists the recovery. Later, it is the eldest who falls into the well. The smaller child runs to find the man with the ladder. Because the oldest son is more revered, his name is much longer. The second child is smaller and in his excitement, cannot pronounce the entire name of his brother, thus leading to delay. After he is recused, his name is now shorter.
I hope that people realize that "Tikki Tikki Tembo" contains very INCORRECT information about Chinese culture...What's even more disturbing is that the introduction written inside the book jacket made the story sound like a real folklore. Below the review is a discussion of both the review and the book. (URL missing because it had been changed by a spammer.)
When the eldest son fell in the well and most of the time getting help was spent pronouncing the name of the one in trouble, the Chinese, according to legend, decided to give all their children short names. Kirjastojen kuvailuja ei löytynyt. |
