【素敵な洋書絵本の紹介】 ちいさいおうちがたっているのは、田舎の丘の上でした。 彼女のまわりにはりんごの木が植えられ、春になるときれいなお花がさきます。 夏には白いデイジーがいっぱいになり、秋の紅葉は美しくて、冬はなだらかな丘を、雪が白く染めていきます。 朝におひさまがのぼり、夕方にはおひさまがしずみます。夜はお月さまがやわらかい光であたりをてらしていきます。 一日づつおだやかに変わっていく丘でした。 この幸せな光景が、ある日変化の時が訪れます……。 有名な絵本なので、一度は読んだことがあるかもしれませんね。 すごいスピードで変化していく都市の発展を同時代に見てきたバージニア・リー・バートンは、どんな気持ちでこの絵本を描いたのでしょうか。 1943年コールデコット賞受賞。 この時代に描かれたくらい、アメリカの発展目覚ましかったですね。 The Little House Contributor(s): Burton, Virginia Lee (Author) EAN: 9780395259382 Publisher: Clarion Books Binding: Paperback Copyright Date: 2007 Pub Date: April 26, 1978 Target Age Group: 04 to 07 Physical Info: 0.76 cms H x 22.35 cms L x 23.88 cms W (0.18 kgs) 44 pages Annotation: The little house first stood in the country, but gradually the city moved closer and closer.

CHOO CHOO Virginia Lee Burton The story of a little engine who ran away. Her first book, written to entertain her son, Aris, before being published. Full of her wonderful reportage drawings, a skill she learnt on her long commute to art college. Published here by that champion of the modern book, Faber, in 1944, during wartime. Just love a train book! #virginialeeburton #choochoo #trainsofinstagram #steamtrains @faberbooks https://www.instagram.com/p/BqJzqq6AeEn/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1fgziss5tqfpt

* 『ちいさいおうち』のヴァージニア·リー·バートンは、自宅や家族もモデルとしてえがいている。イラストレーター、デザイナー、美術集団主宰、主婦、母とマルチに活躍する大忙しの人で、何事にも前向きに取り組む人だった。絵本はもともと自身の子どもの為に作ったものが出発点だ。 『ちいさなおうち』は、長閑だったところが、文明の発達で便利になったが、何かを置き去りにしてしまった現代を、見直す事がテーマだ。 27日まで/表参道 スパイラルにて。 * #ちいさなおうち #ヴァージニアリーバートン #virginialeeburton #graphicdesign #picturebook #usa #tokyo (スパイラル　SPIRAL)

Anyone who balks at the notion of inclusion and diversity, or thinks that it's difficult to show balance and fairness in children's stories should perhaps take a page from the work of beloved children's author-illustrator Virginia Lee Burton. Because way back over 75 years ago, Burton published the wonderful "Katy and the Big Snow" (1943) about a hardworking tractor who pushed a bulldozer in summer and a snowplow in winter, who saved THE WHOLE CITY from the dangers of a terrible snowstorm with her sheer might and force of will ... and who was most decidedly and unequivocally FEMALE. Not much is often made of this, given that Katy isn't human, but given the era it is, frankly, groundbreaking. And to this day it remains a refreshing reminder to girls and boys alike that the Katys of this world are just as capable of heavy lifting as anyone. ⚫ ⚫ ⚫ #noodlenutsclassickidlit #noodlenutskidsbooks #katyandthebigsnow #virginialeeburton #virginialeeburtonbooks #vintagekidsbooks #vintagechildrensillustration #vintagebooks #oldbook #childhoodclassics #childhoodfavorites #snowstorms #snowday #childrensbooks #storytime #readmore #librarylife #classicpicturebook #bookrecommendation https://www.instagram.com/p/B5GclUynRsc/?igshid=1htgwn63yxshp

The 35’ tall Primavera Bronze Fountain in Museum Square (previously known as Prudential Square) was a 1971 commission by American Sculptor Aristedes “Ari” Demetrios and is a great example of mid-century modern sculpture in Miracle Mile. Interesting factoid: the sculptor’s mother was Caldecott-medal winner Virginia Lee Burton who wrote such children’s books as The Little House and Mike Mulligan and his Steam Shovel. . . #midcenturymodernsculpture #sculpture #bronzefountain #aridemetrios #midcenturymodern #miraclemilefountain #museumsquarefountain #prudentialsquare #aristedesdemetrios #mcm #midcenturymoderndesign #virginialeeburton #mcmsculpture (at Museum Square in Los Angeles) https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Cq2gBAYyd/?igshid=6r0f8ebe0q7

『ちいさいおうち』

アメリカの絵本作家、バージニア・リー・バートンさんの絵本。

田舎にあるちいさいおうちが主人公で、最初はのどかな丘や川があるところだったんだけど、道路ができて車が走りはじめて、お店やアパートやビルができて。どんどん周りが街になってって埋もれていって、、ちいさいおうちどうなる...！？というお話。

絵のタッチが柔らかくて好きです。

お話は長くて読むのは大変だけど💧絵もお話もかわいいのでがんばって読んでます😌

Choo Choo Virginia Lee Burton Endpapers from 'The Story of a Little Engine Who Ran Away' published by Faber and Faber in 1944. Fabers were one of the most progressive and modernist of publishers and were one of a handful who published children's books in England by the more avant-garde European and American illustrators. Sales must have been small but a brave and progressive outlook. #choochoo #virginialeeburton #trains #endpapers @sfplbookarts

Day followed day, each one a little different from the one before … but the Little House stayed just the same.” - excerpt from her 1942 children’s picture book: The Little House
