内容简介
The Liszts make lists. They make lists most usual and lists most unusual. They make lists in winter, spring, summer and fall. They make lists every day except Sundays, which are listless. Mama Liszt, Papa Liszt, Winifred, Edward, Frederick and Grandpa make lists all day long. So does their cat. Then one day a visitor arrives. He's not on anyone's list. Will the Liszts be able to make room on their lists for this new visitor? How will they handle something unexpected arising? Kyo Maclear's quirky, whimsical story, perfectly brought to life with the witty, stylish illustrations of Júlia Sardà, is a humorous and poignant celebration of spontaneity.

Huffington PostPRAISE FOR The Good Little Book by Kyo Maclear:"It is easy to imagine an actor with an upper-class British accent reading the wryly humorous text ... the humor and art along the way create an enjoyable romp." -
Kirkus Reviews"Maclear steers clear of 'reading is good for you' and focuses instead on a boy's affection for a dearly loved object and sorrow at its loss. But with the affection is something more subtle, a celebration of the comfort of rereading, of having a favourite book that's the only book for you.... Funny and thoughtful." -
The Toronto StarPRAISE FOR Virginia Wolf by Kyo Maclear:"In the literary bounty of books about bad moods and bad days, this one goes deeper than most, poignantly showing literal and metaphorical glimpses of real depression." - Starred Review,
Kirkus ReviewsPRAISE FOR Spork by Kyo Maclear:"While some picture-book tales have difficulty promoting the 'different can be good' message without slipping into deep didactism, Maclear's text feels nearly effortless.... A sublime little parable." - Starred Review,
