Overview / 简介:

"An unforgettable story." --Starred, Booklist

"Nature and civilization collide in this thought-provoking picture book based on the story of a boy discovered living alone in the mountain forests of southern France in 1800 . . . Young readers will be fascinated, perhaps even spurred to further investigate the facts behind the story." --Starred, Publishers Weekly

"The illustrations, executed in textured paint strokes and rough, crosshatched lines, evoke the untamed freedom of a child who lives purely for himself. The page design heightens the emotional tension and moves the story forward." --Starred, School Library Journal

From Organization / 国外机构评价:
Grade 1-4-In 1800, a preadolescent boy was found wandering in the forests near Saint-Sernin in southern France. This "feral" or wild child, who had somehow survived without human contact for years, became the object of intense study by French experts who labeled him as hopelessly retarded when they failed to communicate with him. However, a young doctor named Jean-Marc Itard was intrigued by the boy and took him into his home where they worked together for several years. Itard's careful observations and sensitive teaching allowed Victor, as he was named, to learn something of civilized life, although he never learned to talk. Gerstein has built The Wild Boy around these details and imagined Victor's life with great sympathy. The illustrations, executed in textured paint strokes and rough, crosshatched lines, evoke the untamed freedom of a child who lives purely for himself. The page design heightens the emotional tension and moves the story forward. Bright colors convey Victor's joyous connection to his natural world while a darker palette shows him in captivity. Softer hues portray the warmth of the Itard household but the overall blue tones evoke Victor's lost innocence and the human potential that was never realized. Children will be fascinated with this true-life survival tale and intrigued by the human need for socialization and interaction.

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价:
Every now and then, a parent runs across a children's book which seems to work magic on young minds. "The Wild Boy" is one such book. Based on the true story of Dr. Jean-Marc Itard's attempts to socialize...and humanize... a boy found inexplicably surviving in the woods of Southern France, this book is thoroughly engrossing. One mark of a great book for kids is whether it encourages the exploration of broader questions than what can be immediately gleaned from the narrative. This book delivers on that score. It presents the story simply, but in such a way that the reader is encouraged to think about the moral complexity involved. Many questions are raised in the young reader's mind, such as "Is it right to treat another human, no matter how uncivilized, like a scientific object?" "Where do our feelings come from?" and ultimately "What does it mean to be human?" If you like to discuss with young folks the books you read to them, this one is perfect for that purpose. It has a way of igniting inquisitive responses, and even ends with the vague but tantalizing words... "I wonder..."-
