Feel the rain kiss your skin or the wind ruffle your hair. Hear the hum of a bumblebee; watch a water strider march across a pond; taste a red, ripe strawberry; whistle with a blade of grass. From Christopher Medal-winning author Douglas Wood and celebrated illustrator P.J. Lynch comes a moving look at the experiences that belong only to us, marking a place on Earth that is ours alone. After all, who but you can remember your own memories? Wonderfully evocative of nature’s sensory treasures, here is a perfect gift to share with a child - or to inspire loved ones of any age as they set out to create their special place in the world.
这世界充满神奇,
有太多重要的东西
需要别人教你、展示给你。
但是那些最美好、也最重要的东西,
其他人却不能教、不能展示、也无法解释给你。
没有人可以发觉它们,
只有你。
只有你,可以感知雨在你皮肤上的亲吻,
风轻抚你的头发。
只有你,可以用你的小脚丫,
踩过雨后的水洼。
