 Looks Simple . . . Mr. Gumpy's Outing
The text looks simple. Each double spread has a new person asking to join the others on his boat. '"I'd like a ride," said the cat'. But each way of asking is both different and fitting to the asker's personality. And Mr Gumpy always says 'yes', but always in different words. And he always gives the new passenger a caution, "But you're not to chase the rabbit." And so it goes on until the boat is full and they all do what they were told not to do! It's a simple pattern of talk, but it is the variations that make it so much fun. And the pictures. They might not be the bright colours and sharp clear shapes that are often expected of picturebooks, but you can look at them for hours and not get tired - just looking and relaxing, or comparing the shapes in the trees and grass and the shapes in the animals' faces and bodies. Burningham uses the combination of left hand-page as long-shot line drawing, and right-hand page as coloured close up, and this makes a nice opportunity for comparing and contrasting. Mr Gumpy sounds 'grumpy' with his constant cautions, but even when the boat capsizes he doesn't get angry. In fact, in a pleasant escape from moralistic stories, the whole disaster is 'rewarded' with a party.
 ゆったりとした時間にオススメです。 Mr. Gumpy's Outing
おやすみまえの一冊にしています。本の中のゆったりした時間の流れに少しずつ飲み込まれて、いつしか私達もMr. Gumpyと一緒にboatに揺られているのです。最後のフレーズ"Come for a ride another day."をきくと、安心したように娘も夢の国へと船を漕ぎだしますzzz。
最初に出会う英語の絵本はこれ！ Mr. Gumpy's Outing
ガンピーさんのふねに、つぎつぎと動物たちが「わたしものせて。」とやってきます。全てその意なのですが、ひとつとして同じセリフはなく、いろんな英語表現がでてきます。
なにより、絵の素朴さに心なごみます。そしてやさしいガンピーさんに、ひかれます。英語も簡単なものが多く、初めての読み聞かせてには、最適の１冊です！
Mr. Gumpy: a Preschool Pleaser Mr. Gumpy's Outing
One fine day, Mr. Gumpy decides to go punting. One by one, he takes on a variety of passengers who promise to behave, but... It is easy to forsee the outcome when two children, a cat, a dog, a pig, a sheep, chickens, and others all climb aboard. But all ends happily on such a balmy afternoon, with such a hospitable boatman as is Mr. Gumpy. It comes as no surprise that MR GUMPY`S OUTING won the Kate Greenaway medal with the way John Burmingham`s gentle illustrations pleasantly evoke the lazy summer`s day. Parents of preschoolers should rejoice that this is also available as a board book.
