The unique pleasure of becoming something other than yourself.\u003cbr\u003e William Steig often used 'Metamorphosis' as a subject for his picture books.\u003cbr\u003e Transformation, it's a word that everyone has probably shouted out at least once when they were young.\u003cbr\u003e Everyone fantasizes about transformation, but children are more easily excited by the word than adults.\u003cbr\u003e Children enjoy imagining themselves as something other than themselves, and they act as if they are already something. \u003cbr\u003eNo makeup props or name tags are needed.\u003cbr\u003e Children are ready to transform into different forms anytime, anywhere.\u003cbr\u003e Just shout, “I am a robot from now on!” “Ah! I am a tiger!”\u003cbr\u003e There are endless materials to transform into, so you can never get bored of playing with transformations.\u003cbr\u003e Why do children enjoy pretend play? Perhaps it's the catharsis of that fleeting moment of being someone other than themselves.\u003cbr\u003e You can become a hero and defeat villains as you wish, or you can become a doctor and treat patients.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ■ Find your true self and return to the arms of your loving family.\u003cbr\u003e 『Sylvester and the Magic Pebble』 also deals with transformation.\u003cbr\u003e Sylvester, a little donkey, was playing by the stream when he accidentally picked up a magic pebble that grants wishes.\u003cbr\u003e On his way home to show off his pebble to his parents, he suddenly encounters a huge lion. \u003cbr\u003eA frightened Sylvester makes a wish to be turned into a rock, and in the blink of an eye, he turns into a rock.\u003cbr\u003e Sylvester, who has no choice but to live as a rock, is overcome with sadness, but decides to become accustomed to the rock and falls into a deep sleep.\u003cbr\u003e In this way, William Steig does not use transformation only as a device for play.\u003cbr\u003e In this picture book, transformation is more than just a simple game; it is an act of losing one's true self, which one must protect.\u003cbr\u003e Therefore, the importance of ‘restoration to original state’, which is returning to one’s original state naturally, is highlighted.\u003cbr\u003e Because I realize how beautiful I am just the way I am and how precious the things I can protect while I am myself are.\u003cbr\u003e After a long time, when Mom and Dad happened to sit on Sylvester (the rock), “I want to be me again. \u003cbr\u003eThat scene where Sylvester thinks, “I really, really want to go back to my original self!” is so awesome.\u003cbr\u003e Sylvester returns as a donkey and shares the joy of reunion with his beloved family, hugging, kissing, and dancing.\u003cbr\u003e Of course, the transformation play is safe because I can return to myself whenever I want.\u003cbr\u003e But what if technology advances so dramatically that we're given the opportunity to transform into something truly different? Then, let's heed the lessons of this book and seriously consider them.\u003cbr\u003e Like Sylvester, who is hugged by his family and has a calm expression on his face, what I have now may be all I need.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e ■ A painting vividly filled with diverse emotions\u003cbr\u003e William Steig's paintings, filled with watercolors and bold, sweeping lines, appear unadorned yet cozy and warm, making them accessible to everyone. \u003cbr\u003eBut there is something unique about William Steig's paintings: they feel like they are actually alive.\u003cbr\u003e Each scene conveys a different emotion, regardless of the character's expression or background description.\u003cbr\u003e It's as if you're talking to the person who's watching.\u003cbr\u003e For example, if you follow the flow of scenes such as Sylvester looking at the magic pebble with a curious expression, the lion glaring at Sylvester with a fierce expression, and Sylvester being terrified in front of the lion, anyone can fully empathize with Sylvester's ups and downs in emotions.\u003cbr\u003e Also, Sylvester (rock) is still the same, but as the seasons change, leaves fall, snow piles up, and flowers bloom, it feels truly lonely, as if time has passed.\u003cbr\u003e But the best part of this picture book is Sylvester's mom and dad. \u003cbr\u003eMom and Dad are devastated by the loss of their son Sylvester and lose their reason to live.\u003cbr\u003e The heart that misses Sylvester so much and doesn't know what to do is vividly expressed in the image of the parents dropping the fabric they were knitting or leaning over the table with their faces down, touching the hearts of the viewers.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of publication:\u003c\/strong\u003e February 24, 2017\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Hardcover book binding method guide\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 32 pages | 388g | 215*284*10mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9788949112725\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/strong\u003e 8949112728\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eKC Certification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Certification Type: Conformity Confirmation \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43894514745386,"sku":"154061","price":21.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/75193b2d01d50f0a66a7d234b48d35e6.jpg?v=1765436727","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/154061","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
