The Family Under the Bridge BSY087

US$9.95

A fatherless family in Paris loses their home and so must join the homeless ones who live under the bridges in Paris. Unfortunately they select a spot which 'belongs' to a hobo who hates children, has no heart, and has forgotten his own name. Winter descends and the cold children try to keep warm and get food while their mama works during the day. The hobo reluctantly helps them a little and the story continues to draw you in as Christmas nears.

本书荣获1959年纽伯瑞儿童文学奖银奖。在巴黎生活着一个上了年纪的流浪汉,他的名字叫阿曼德。横跨塞纳河的大桥底下便是他的栖身之所。一天傍晚,当他返回住处时,发同自己的地盘儿居然被三个陌生的小孩子和一只小狗给占了。他既吃惊又生气,要把他们赶走。后来,在与孩子们的接触中,他逐渐改变了自己的态度,甚至替他们白天在洗衣房工作的妈妈照顾他们,而这三个孩子也早已把他当作自己亲爱的爷爷了。阿曼德重新找到家的感觉,与此同时,他也深知孩子们最渴望、最需要的就是一个真正的家。为了实现孩子们的愿望,阿曼德决心搸起来,不再以乞讨为生。他以崭新的精神面貌谋到了一份适合自己的工作,他将与孩子们的妈妈一起共同支撑起一个真正属于他们自己的家。
