亲子阅读指导：精读绘本，精读的常规方法是指图+肢体语言。家长先和孩子来看一下绘本的封面：看看树上，有一个男人正在睡觉；看看树下，有一摞五颜六色的帽子；再看看树的背后，躲着两只机灵的猴子。这会是一个什么样的故事呢？你能猜到吗？一起来看看！

 

再看扉页：这个男人，为什么要戴这么多顶帽子呢？谁会有这么多帽子呢？难道他是一个卖帽子的商人吗？家长通过一些猜测来引起孩子的好奇心，再打开绘本内页来探索故事的真相。Once there was a pedlar（指图：小贩） who sold caps（指图：帽子）. But he was not like an ordinary peddler carrying（做背东西的动作） his wares on his bag. He carried them on top of his head（指图：小贩的头或者模仿小贩把帽子顶在头上的动作）.

 

First, he had on his own checked cap（指着第一顶花格子帽子）, then a bunch of gray caps（指着灰色的帽子）, then a bunch of brown caps（指着棕色的帽子）, then a bunch of blue caps（指着蓝色的帽子）, and on the very top a bunch of red cap（指着最顶上的红色帽子）.

 

 

He walked up and down the streets（做走路的动作） holding himself very straight（模仿小贩伸直腰板） so as not to upset his caps.As he went along he called, "Caps! Caps for sale! Ten pence a cap!"......后面的内容采取类似的讲述方式即可。

 

这本绘本很适用玩情景模仿的游戏，把家里的帽子找出来，家长扮演小贩，让孩子扮演猴子，互动起来孩子会非常投入，一下子就把整个故事都吃透了。绘本的句子虽然比较多，但是难度很小，家长只要把握故事的节奏就好，不用在意文字多少。

 

绘本展示及翻译：Caps For Sale（Esphyr Slobodkina）《卖帽子喽》

Once there was a pedlar who sold caps. But he was not like an ordinary peddler carrying his wares on his bag. He carried them on top of his head.

从前有一个卖帽子的小贩。他不像其他普通的小贩那样把他的帽子放在包里卖。他把帽子都戴在头上。

First, he had on his own checked cap, then a bunch of gray caps, then a bunch of brown caps, then a bunch of blue caps, and on the very top a bunch of red caps.

首先，他戴上了他自己的格子帽子，然后是一摞灰色的帽子，接着是一摞棕色的，一摞蓝色的，戴在最上面的是一摞红色的。

He walked up and down the streets holding himself very straight so as not to upset his caps.

他在大街上走来走去，把腰杆挺得笔直好让他的帽子不会掉下来。

As he went along he called, "Caps! Caps for sale! Ten pence a cap!"

他一边走，一边吆喝，“帽子！卖帽子了！十分钱一顶帽子啦！”

One morning, he couldn't sell any caps. He walked up the street and he walked down the street calling, "Caps! Caps for sale. Fifty cents a cap!"

一天早上，他一顶帽子都没有卖出去。他在大街上来回走着，边走边吆喝：“帽子！卖帽子了！十分钱一顶帽子啦！”

 

 

But nobody wanted any caps that morning. Nobody wanted even a red cap.

He began to feel very hungry, but he had no money for lunch.

他觉得有点饿了，但是他没有钱吃午饭。

"I think, I'll go for a walk in the country." said he. And he walked out of town slowly, slowly, so as not to upset his caps.

“我想，我应该到乡村去看看。”他自言自语道。于是，他便往乡村走去，他走得非常缓慢，这样他的帽子就不会掉下来了。

He walked for a long time until he came to a great big tree. That's a nice place for a rest, thought he.

他走了好长时间，这时，他来到了一个大树底下。这真是一个休息的好地方，他想。

And he sat down very slowly under the tree and leaned back little by little against the tree trunk, so as not to disturb the caps on his head. Then he put up his hand to feel if they were straight, first his own checked cap, then the gray caps, then the brown caps, then the blue caps, then the red caps on the very top.

他慢慢地坐在树底下，一点点地靠在树干上，这样就不会碰到他头上的帽子了。然后他抬起手摸了摸他的帽子，看它们是不是还笔直地戴在他的头上，首先是他的格子帽子，接着是灰色的，棕色的，还有蓝色的，最后最上面的是他的红帽子。

They were all there.

它们都还在。

So he went to sleep.

然后，他抬起头，看着树顶。

And what do you think he saw?

你知道他看到了什么吗？

On every branch sat a monkey. On every monkey was a gray, or a brown, or a blue, or a red cap!

Finally he spoke to them.

最后，他对猴子们说：

"You monkeys, you", he said, shaking a finger at them. "You give me back my caps."

“你们，你们这些猴子”，他喊着还用手指比划着，“快把我的帽子还给我！”

But monkeys only shook their finger back at him and said, “Tsz,tsz,tsz.”

可是猴子只是照着小贩的样子比划着，呲呲呲地叫着。

This made the peddler angry, so he shook both hands at them and said, "You monkeys, you! You give me back my caps. "

But monkeys only stamped their feet back at him and said, Tsz,tsz,tsz.

By this time the pedlar was really very very angry. He stamped both his feet and shouted, "You monkeys, you! You must give me back my caps! "

但是这次，小贩真是火冒三丈了。他生气地跺着脚，吼道：“你们这些猴子！你们必须把我的帽子还给我！”

But the monkeys only stamped both their feet back at him and said, Tsz,tsz,tsz.

At last, he became so angry that he pulled off his own cap, threw it on the ground, and began to walk away.

最后，他太生气了，他脱下自己的帽子，把帽子摔倒了地上，准备走了。

But then, each monkey pulled off his cap…

and all the gray caps, and all the brown caps, and all the blue caps, and all the red caps came flying down out of the tree.

先是灰色的帽子，然后是棕色的，蓝色的，红色的。所有的帽子都从树上飞下来了。
