 小雷內心吶喊:我不想要這個像放屁一樣的名字,但有人聽到了嗎?

  Thunder Boy Jr. 是以他父親的名字命名的,但就算大家都叫他爸爸大雷(Big Thunder),也不代表他想被大家叫做小雷(Little Thunder)。

  人們叫他小雷,這聽起來有點像「打嗝」或「放屁」。小雷討厭他的名字,他想要一個聽起來比較酷或是能代表他的名字。小雷不知道該怎麼跟爸爸說這件事,但其實,小雷的爸爸比小雷以為的還要懂兒子心裡在想什麼…。

  Morales精美的插圖,精準掌握角色情緒與背景,每一頁都流露出濃厚的父母之愛與細膩的情感,並展現現代美國印第安家庭文化,適合三到五歲的孩童閱讀。(文/博客來編譯)
From New York Times bestselling author Sherman Alexie and Caldecott Honor winning Yuyi Morales comes a striking and beautifully illustrated picture book celebrating the special relationship between father and son.
Thunder Boy Jr. wants a normal name...one that's all his own. Dad is known as big Thunder, but little thunder doesn't want to share a name. He wants a name that celebrates something cool he's done like Touch the Clouds, Not Afraid of Ten Thousand Teeth, or Full of Wonder.
But just when Little Thunder thinks all hope is lost, dad picks the best name...Lightning Their love will be loud and bright, and together they will light up the sky.

A National Book Award-winning author, poet, and filmmaker, Sherman Alexie is one of the most well-known and beloved literary writers of his generation. His works of fiction, including The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, Reservation Blues, and The Lone Ranger and Tonto Fistfight in Heaven, have received numerous awards and citations. He lives in Seattle. Like Thunder Boy Jr., Sherman was named for his father.

  Since migrating to the United States from Mexico in 1994, Yuyi Morales has created some of our most celebrated children's books, including Niño Wrestles the World, Harvesting Hope: The Story of Cesar Chavez, and many others. She is the winner of several awards, including a Pura Belpré Medal and a Caldecott Honor for Viva Frida. Yuyi divides her time between Mexico and California.
