From Organization / 国外机构评价:

PreSchool-Grade 2—In this 10th book about Gilbert, the young opossum and his sister are excited about their cousin's visit. They soon realize, however, that having Wally around isn't as much fun as they had imagined. He is so competitive that he turns everything into a contest. "Last one in is a rotten egg" is his favorite phrase, which he yells while running to beat the others at whatever activity is taking place, even getting to the lunch table first. The children attend an Easter egg hunt and Wally fills his basket quickly while Gilbert takes the time to help his little sister search for eggs. Lola spots the golden egg, which signifies a prize, but neither she nor Gilbert can reach it high in a tree. Wally takes it from its perch but instead of giving it to Lola, keeps it for himself. In the end, Lola wins her prize, Wally learns to share, and the three become friends. Pastel, cartoon-style watercolor illustrations depict the activities while revealing the small town's populace made up of raccoons, porcupines, rabbits, cats, and dogs. Children will relate to the story, which imparts a gentle lesson on how to be a friend.—Maryann H. Owen, Racine Public Library, WI

Foreign Customer Review / 国外客户评价:

If you have a child at home in preschool or early elementary school, and are looking for a good book, this book is for you! This is a wonderful Easter-time story about a hedgehog named Gilbert, who meets up with his seldom seen cousin, Wally. Though related, Wally and Gilbert are the opposite when it comes to manners. I am a substitute teacher, and I read this to a class of first graders. Even though it was time for recess the kids were "begging" me to turn the page so they could find out what happens next!

吉尔伯特和罗拉非常激动------他们的表兄沃利要来了！他们已经很长时间没有见到沃利了，而且都十分期待沃利的到来。

“他来了”罗拉从窗边喊道。

门猛的开了，沃利扑腾着进来了“最后一个到的是笨蛋！”，沃利叫喊着

在沃利身后，格斯叔叔也出现在了门口“你们好”，他说，并扶起了沃利刚刚撞倒的伞架。

沃利比吉尔伯特记忆中的要高大多了。他几乎要和格斯叔叔一样高了！

“你们来的正是时候，该吃午饭了”妈妈说道“我做了些汤和三明治”

“最后一个到的是笨蛋！”，沃利边喊边跑到了餐桌边

吉尔伯特赶快找到了他的位置。罗拉也快速走来。他们可不想当笨蛋。

妈妈可不在乎她是不是笨蛋。在她入座之前，她小心点的端上了汤。她对沃利说“你下午一定会玩的很开心的。在公园有一个寻找复活节彩蛋的游戏”

沃利做了个鬼脸并说道“找彩蛋是小宝宝玩的游戏”

但是吉尔伯特想让他的朋友们认识认识沃利。“如果你找到最多的彩蛋，是会有奖品的，”他兴高采烈的说道

“而且如果你找到金蛋，也会有奖品的”，罗拉补充道“我可要认真的搜寻并找到它”

“那我可要去了”沃利说道“但是我仍然认为这是很无聊的”接着他把他的最后一块花生酱三明治塞满了他的嘴里“追后一个完撑的是笨炭！”

在公园里，沃利没有想和吉尔伯特以及他的朋友们待在一起。他拿了一个篮子并朝起点线走去。

“你的表兄不是很友善啊”帕蒂说道

“他只是想赢”吉尔伯特回答道。吉尔伯特也想赢，他紧跟着沃利，喊道“最后一个到达山上的是笨蛋！”

他们朝四面八方竞相跑去，在灌木丛下和树后面寻找着彩蛋。

“我找到了一个”吉尔伯特从灌木丛中喊道。

“我找到了两个！”沃利在一棵树后面叫道

帕蒂和罗拉高高的草丛中寻找着。“我就是一个彩蛋也找不着”罗拉抱怨着

“看”帕蒂说道“在你的脚边就有一个！”

“我找到一个啦！”罗拉激动喊道。她自豪的把绿色的塑料蛋放进了她的篮子里。

吉尔伯特和沃利跑到高高的草丛中去看哪儿是不是有更多的彩蛋。吉尔伯特非常着急的要找到更多因为沃利的篮子都快要满了！

然而罗拉的篮子还几乎是空的。

吉尔伯特叹了口气，从他的篮子里拿出些彩蛋给罗拉。“谢谢”罗拉说道“让我们找到更多去吧！”于是他们一起向着一片树跑去。

突然罗拉停止了奔跑并喊道“我看见啦，我看见在那棵树上的金蛋啦，但是我们够不到！”

沃利说“没问题”他踮起脚尖并伸展的越来越高。

“我拿到啦”他叫道

“好样的沃利”吉尔伯特说道

沃利把金蛋丢进了他的篮子里并走开了

“喂”吉尔伯特向沃利喊道“这不公平！是罗拉发现的那个蛋！”

“但是是我够到的呀”沃利说道

罗拉哭泣着“我要告诉裁判！”

但沃利只是说“胡说八道！”

哨声响了。寻找结束了，每个人都回到了起点线。

沃利篮子里的彩蛋比每个人都多。他还拥有金蛋。沃利说道“我真喜欢寻找彩蛋！让我们去看看奖品是什么吧！”

吉尔伯特有了个主意。“没错”他说 “让我们去看看吧”然后他喊道“最后一个到下面的是笨蛋！”

沃利马上出发并跑到了山下。“我赢了！”他说道。当他回头看时，吉尔伯特和罗拉在山顶上，捡拾着从沃利篮子里掉下来的彩蛋-----包括那颗金蛋！

“哎呦……”,当沃利看到他的空篮子时。

因为找到了金蛋，罗拉得到了一个里面有着风景画的糖弹

因为找到了最多的彩蛋，吉尔伯特赢得了一个装满了巧克力蛋，冰淇淋蛋，以及他最喜欢的----棉花糖蛋的复活节礼品蓝

但是吉尔伯特觉得自己拿这个篮子是不对的，他向沃利走去并说道“你才真正找到了最多的彩蛋，不是我，你应该拥有这个奖品”。

沃利脸红了“也许我们该一起分享它？”他提议道。

他们于是一同分享了礼品！
