Jessica has a friend only she can see: Jessica. "There is no Jessica," said Ruthie's parents. But of course there was.
She ate with Ruthie, played with Ruthie, and was sorry when Ruthie was bad. When it came time for Ruthie to go to school, Jessica went with her. Her parents hoped Ruthie would find a friend at school who would replace Jessica. They were in for a (happy) surprise!
这是一本关于理解和接纳的温情绘本。露丝有一个非常要好的朋友,名叫杰茜卡。她们一起吃早餐,一起玩耍,一起分享快乐和伤心。但除了露丝之外,谁都看不到杰茜卡,包括露丝的爸爸妈妈和她幼儿园的同学们。直到有一个叫“杰茜卡”的小姑娘出现,将露丝带回有真正的朋友的生活,让她得以体验更加真实、快乐的友谊。
双奖得主、世界绘本大师凯文·汉克斯在这个故事中,探索了幼儿的社会性发展,表达了对孩子内心的孤单、用想象塑造一个朋友这种行为的理解,并启发孩子们敞开心扉去接纳。文字温情、内敛,图画灵动、充满幽默趣味,是一本有经典气象的绘本。
