这只狗在船上用望远镜发现一个天堂岛,决定搬到那里,岛上已经住了熊、兔子、和螃蟹,不仅欢迎他还要帮他打造个家。
刚开始,他急忙着找基地,接着开始,看着大家帮他,反倒开始指挥熊多搬点树枝、兔子多拿点花、螃蟹多堆点石头。大家停下来时,它还汪汪叫,催着大家快一点,最后整座岛都变成它的家了,又大、又宏伟,就像封面这样。
所以大熊、兔子、和螃蟹又另谋去处,这回它们再看到Napoleon时,马上说“NO! There's no room for Napoleon!" 失去朋友的狗儿马上从善如流,有所表现,才得到朋友的信任,这时,远方,又有拿着望远镜找地方的大猫。
A story about friendship, the environment and good citizenship from the brilliant Adria Meserve.
Napoleon is a small brown dog with very big ideas. One day, he lands on a beautiful paradise island. Crab, Bunny and Bear can’t wait to share their island home with their new friend. They are generous and kind and welcoming. But Napoleon has big visions for his future — he destroys the island to build himself a fortress, eats all their food, and bosses them about. Soon, “King” Napoleon finds himself alone and must think hard about the meaning of community and sharing before he can be considered a friend again.
Adria Meserve is an exciting new talent in picture books. She was acclaimed as a "great new talent" when her first book, Smog the City Dog was published. Adria gained a BA in History of Art from The Courtauld Institute of Art in London and went on to qualify as a teacher at Brighton University.
