I Carry Your Heart With Me

　　繪本《I Carry Your Heart With Me》內容取材自美國已故詩人兼畫家E. E. Cummings家喻戶曉的同名詩作，書中搭配新世代插畫家Mati Rose McDonough清雅恬淡的畫風，呈現出大自然裡無論是人類、鳥或大象，在母親與子女之間都有一份自然純淨、強韌有力的愛與羈絆，任季節流轉、日昇月移也從不改變。

　　本書是McDonough首次參與的童書作品，Cummings沉靜溫柔的詩句透過多種素材拼貼的畫作緩緩舒展，細緻的圖文共同擦出璀燦耀眼的火花，彷彿兩人跨越時空編寫的一本經典之作，無論大人小孩都必定能從書中感受到詩的意趣與愛的真諦。（文／博客來編譯）
