一个只能写一个字的和尚。一艘承载大象的纸船。一匹在城市里寻找失散多年兄弟的橘色马。在这些充满欢乐的绘本中，阿斯特丽德·林格伦纪念奖提名作家刘旭恭唤起了孩童般的奇思妙想。他相信，绘本中的想象力和一点点 “无厘头” 与启迪道理同样重要，能够为孩子们奠定好探索世界的奇心和快乐的基础。
A monk who can only write one word. A paper boat that carries an elephant. An orange horse in the city searching for his long-lost brother. In his joyful picture books, Astrid Lindgren Memorial Award nominee Liu Hsu-Kung evokes childlike whimsy, believing that imagination and a little bit of nonsense in picture books can be just as important as imparting lessons, building a foundation of curiosity and joy on which to navigate the world.
