As these titles show, both children's literature and how we see the world has moved on.
这些儿童读物的书名让我们知道,儿童文学已经变了,我们看世界的方式也已经变了。
Even some of the titles we loved when younger are more likely to have us sniggering as adults.
即使是一些我们小时候爱看的图书,长大了再看,也会让我们忍俊不禁。
Admittedly, books such as 'My Mom Has Hepatitis C', are written to help and educate their young readers through a difficult situation which may be tricky to explain.
必须承认,像《我妈妈有丙型肝炎》这样的书,创作的目的就是帮助和教育那些小读者们走过一个比较难以解释的时期。
So cast your eye over this mix of old, new and innuendo - are any on your bookshelf?
所以看看下面这些新旧混杂、含沙射影的书名吧——是否其中一些就在你的书架上呢?
1. Everyone Poops
《所有人都要便便》
Author Taro Gomi illustrates how all animals and humans need to have a number two. Which, as an adult, is important and helpful to remember the next time you are in a tense and scary situation at work.
本书作者 Taro Gomi通过图画描述了这样一个事实:所有的动物和人类都要上大号。不过,对于成人来说,下次你在工作中遇到紧张吓人的情景时,这句话会给你重要的帮助。
2.All my friends are dead
《我的朋友都死了》
If you're tiring of the "when I grow up, I want to be..." conversation your child currently can't get enough of, this is the book for you.
如果你对“等我长大了,我想当……”这样的对话感到厌倦,而你的孩子却乐此不疲,这本书正符合你的要求。
Rather than feed the fore of their ambition, 'All my friends are dead' aims to show us how there's a downside to being anything.
《我的朋友都死了》这本书并不鼓励孩子向目标奋斗,而是要告诉我们,一切的一切都要面对一个阴暗面的事实。
3.My Mom Has Hepatitis C
《我妈妈有丙型肝炎》
The bestselling authors of "Living With Hepatitis C: A Survivor's Guide" do what they do best and continue with the same theme, this time for children.
畅销书《与丙型肝炎抗争》的同一批作者就这同一主题做出的最好的诠释,这次是针对儿童。
SPOILER ALERT: Don't worry - it ends happily.
剧透:别担心——故事有一个幸福结局。
4.The Night Dad Went to Jail
《爸爸进监狱的夜晚》
In fairness to 'The Night Dad Went to Jail' and its author, Melissa Higgins, this book has attracted a lot of praise for the way it tackles a situation many children will not understand or find painful.
公允的说,《爸爸进监狱的夜晚》这本书和它的作者,梅丽莎•希金斯都广受赞誉。这本书所处理的话题,只有少部分孩子会懂得,并为之心痛。
5.I Wish Daddy Didn't Drink
《我希望我老爹不喝酒》
'I Wish Daddy Didn't Drink So Much' is one of a number of titles aimed at explaining issues such as alocoholism to children.
有许多图书会向孩子们解释酗酒等问题,《我希望爸爸不喝酒》就是其中之一。
Judith Vigna's heartstring-tugging book is about Lisa, whose father doesn't keep his promise to take her sledding because of his drinking.
作者茱蒂丝•维尼亚这本拨动人心弦的书籍讲述了丽莎的故事:她的爸爸没有履行承诺,带她去滑雪,因为他酗酒。
