Author introduction

David Shannon—Do you all feel particularly familiar with this name? That’s right, he is the famous American picture book master who created the famous picture book "No David", and is also the author of the picture book we share today~

David Shannon, born in Washington, USA in 1959, is a well-known American picture book writer and painter. He has created more than 20 brilliant works for children and is also an ever-winning army of various important awards.

David Shannon graduated from the Art Center School of Design in California and later went to New York to develop. He has illustrated the New York Times , Times Magazine and Rolling Stone Magazine, and has also designed book covers.

In 1989, David Shannon began to create children's picture books, but it was five years since 1999 that David Shannon's first picture book was released, and David was still lukewarm. During this period, he wrote "How many spots are there in the jaguar?" 》 (How Many Spots Does a Leopard Have?) with illustrations, and this book also won the American Library Society Excellent Children's Book Award at that time.

《How Many Spots Does a Leopard Have? 》

He also independently completed his first picture book - the self-written and self-drawn "How Georgie Radbourn Saved Baseball", which also won the New York Times' picture book of the year, but none of them won a huge reputation for David Shannon.

"How Georgie Radbourn Saved Baseball"

Until the publication of "No David" in 1999, this picture book made David Shannon famous. Since then, David Shannon has finally begun to enter the ranks of world-class picture book masters.

When David Shannon was five years old, he drew his first book in his life, which recorded every thing his mother did not allow him to do, and each painting had "No" and "David" written on it because these were the only two words he could spell at the time. Many years later, David had long forgotten the graffiti work, and it was his mother who sent it to him. This book "David, No," which made David Shannon famous all over the world was painted by David imitating his graffiti when he was five years old.

When talking about his experience in creating this book, David said: "When I was about to draw it into a picture book, I drew David as a pretty realistic child - a child like I usually draw. Compared with the original manuscripts when I was a child, this David had no personality at all and was not distinctive at all. Without round head and fangs, I could not draw him. So I tried to draw him like a five-year-old child, so he suddenly became vivid!"

This book "No David" also won the 1998 Cadillac Silver Award; the 1998 New York Times Best Picture Book of the Year; the 1999 American Library Society's Good Book of the Year Recommendation; it was also selected as the "100 Picture Books Everyone Should Know" in the New York Public Library; and the 2001 7th Japan Picture Book Award Reader Award and other awards.

Because of this book's strong response, after "David, No", David Shannon wrote two more books "David Goes to School" and " David Gets in Trouble", which are also well-selling to this day.

In addition, he has created a series of classic picture books such as " Duck on a Bike", "Too Many Toys", "The Rain Came Down", "How I Became a Pirate", "Pirates Don't Change Diapers", "Oh, A Bad Case Of Stripes", etc., which are all very popular among children.

In 2004, Shannon used his daughter as a prototype to draw "Alice the Fairy" in comics, and used humor to outline a little girl full of imagination.

The picture books we are going to discuss with you today are one of them - "Duck on a Bike", which is included in the 57th book list of Immortal Books.

First, let's walk into this picture book together and see what kind of story it tells~~

picture book content

cover

cover We can see a duck riding across a red bicycle. There are colorful ribbons floating on the handlebar of the bicycle. The duck holds one hand on the handlebar, and the other hand is waving high, with his mouth wide open, and is greeting you.

A red bicycle was parked on the grass, and a duck stood in front of the bicycle. The duck stroked his chin with one hand and the other hand behind him. He was staring at the bicycle seriously. What was it thinking? Who parked this bike here?

One day in the farm, a crazy idea popped up in the duck.

"I bet I will ride a bike!" He thought

He walked to the boy's parked bicycle, climbed up, and rode

At first he rode very slowly, and swayed left and right, but it was very fun!

It turned out that the duck wanted to ride a bicycle and had put this idea into practice. He saw his feet on the bicycle pedal, holding the handlebars with both hands, looking straight ahead, and his mouth was wide open. He was riding a bicycle on a loess road. The duck riding a bicycle felt very excited.

The duck rode past the cow and waved to the cow.

"Hello, cow!" said the duck.

"Moo——" the cow responded.

But she thought to herself: "A duck is riding a bicycle? This is the stupidest thing I have ever seen!"

The duck rides past a cow, twists his head and waves his hand to say hello to the cow. There is a bell hanging around the cow's neck. At this moment, she also turns her head, stares with big eyes, slightly opens her mouth, and looks at the duck riding a bicycle in surprise.

Duck rides by the sheep.

"Hello, sheep!" said the duck.

"Ba..." the sheep responded.

But she thought to herself: "If you are not careful, he will be injured!"

The duck continued to ride a red bicycle and was happily driving on the road. This time he passed by the sheep. The duck happily waved his hand and turned around to say hello to the sheep. The sheep raised his head and looked at the duck with some concern.

Now, the duck is riding much better.

He passed by the dog.

"Hello, dog!" said the duck.

"Wang!" The dog responded.

But he thought to himself: "This is real kung fu!"

The duck continued to ride forward and met a black dog. The black dog caught up with the duck riding a bicycle and ran in parallel with the duck.

Duck rides by the cat.

"Hello, cat!" said the duck.

"Meow——" the cat responded.

But she thought to herself: "I won't waste my time riding a bike!"

The duck passed by the cat without stopping, and said hello to the cat and continued riding forward. The cat lay on the side of the ground, leisurely napping in the sun, raising her head from time to time, squinted her eyes and licking her claws. She didn't envy the duck riding a bike at all.

The duck pedaled a little faster

He rode by his side.

"Hello, horse!" said the duck.

"Nee——" the horse responded.

But he thought to himself: "You are not as fast as me, duck!"

The duck passed through the red stable again this time. The brown horse in the stable stuck his head out of the window door, looked at the duck with his eyes slanted, and he curled his lips. He was a little disdainful of the duck. He thought that the duck was not as fast as he was riding a bicycle.

The duck rode towards the hen while ringing the bell.

"Hello, hen!" said the duck.

"Gee! Gee!" the hen responded.

But she thought to herself: "Look at the road, duck!"

The duck continued to walk forward, there was a hen in front of her, and the bicycle was about to hit the hen! The hen was shocked, flapped her wings and hurriedly avoided it, turned around and looked at the duck, without any panic at all, and calmly pressed the bicycle bell.

Duck rides beside the goat.

"Hello, goat!" said the duck.

"Bao—" the goat responded.

But he thought to himself: "I want to eat that car."

The duck passed by another goat. The goat stood next to a overturned trash can, eating what was turned out from the trash can while watching the duck.

Duck stood on the seat with one foot, riding by the pig and the pig.

"Hello, pigs!" said the duck.

"Slut——" The pig and the pig responded.

But they thought to themselves: "Ducks really love to show off!"

The duck is becoming more and more skilled in riding a bicycle. This time, when passing by the two pigs, he couldn't help but show off his driving skills. He stood on the seat of the bicycle with one foot, raised his other foot back high, with a confident smile on his face. The two pigs were lying in the mud pond, staring at the duck with a slanted eye.

Duck spreads his handlebars and passes by the mouse.

"Hello, mouse!" said the duck.

"Squeak--" the mouse responded.

But he thought to himself: "I really want to ride a bike like a duck."

The duck rode his bike through a mouse hole. This time he chose to sit in the bicycle seat. His hands loosened the handlebars and waved high. His feet did not step on the pedals but were raised to both sides. The cool cycling skills made the mouse at the entrance of the hole envy.

Suddenly, a large group of children rode their bicycles down the road.

They rode very fast, and no one saw a duck.

They parked their car at the door and went into the house.

At this time, a large group of children rode bicycles through the loess road, some wearing helmets, some wearing hats, and some wearing masks. The children hurriedly rode their bikes by with smiles, and waves of dust rose behind them.

The children all entered the house and left their bicycles at the door. Now, cows, sheep, black dogs, cats, brown horses, hens, goats, and pigs are all surrounded. Even the little mice are no exception lying on the white fence. They stare at a yellow bicycle intently. Behind the hen, you can still see the ducks riding on the bike, and also stopped and turned their heads to look at the animals.

Now, all animals are ridden by bicycle!

They rode around the open space next to the barn.

"It's so fun!" They said in unison, "Duck, your idea is great!"

All the animals rode on their bicycles. It turned out that after they saw the duck riding a bicycle, they all started to think about riding a bicycle. The animals were happily riding in circles in the clearings next to the barn, cows riding on a pink bike; hens riding on a small three-wheeled bike; two pigs were riding on a two-person bike, and they were chatting while riding; goats were riding on a bike while gnawing on the basket in front of the bike. Where are the little mouse?

Here, I can’t ride a bicycle with a small body and short legs, so I can only sit on the handlebar of the bicycle riding by the duck and enjoy it.

They put their bicycles back in the house.

No one knew that that afternoon, there was a cow, a sheep, a dog, a cat, a horse, a hen, a goat, two pigs, a mouse and a duck riding a bicycle.

The bicycle returned to its original place and was neatly placed at the door. All the animals disappeared, as if nothing had happened. Only the duck was still standing here. He was holding his hands behind his back, his eyes wide open, and a smile on his lips, as if he had made up some idea again. On this page of

, the author laid the foreshadowing, allowing children to imagine: If he were the author, he would write a crazy story about a duck driving a tractor next, how would he conceive it? What animals will appear? What will the ending be like?
