haha,内幕来了表情占位:s:135

Inside the Freight Train表情占位:s:138
还是说一些吧,多少挖到了点东西
Donald Crews was born in Newark, New Jersey, in 1938. his father worked at the railroad, and several other odd jobs. For the summers he would travel down to rural Florida to stay with his grandmother, who he called "Bigmama". The difference between the big city and the farm caused him to create two, massively different types of art later on in his life.
话说唐纳德先生出生在1938年,他老爸曾在铁道部门上班。
从这个生活经历上来看,就很容易理解为什么唐先生画了那么多的火车了。
He created several other books over the next few years, but it was 1979's "Freight Train" that won him a Caldecott Honor and the respect of other artists in the field. He won another Caldecott Honor the next year for "Truck". Several other transportation themed books followed, such as "School Bus" (1984), "Flying" (1986), and "Sail Away" (1995). His memories from his summers in Florida first appeared in "Bigmama's" and later in "Shortcut". These stories are vastly different from his previous works, in that they focus on humans, and tell a more linear story.
唐先生早期的作品基本上都是交通工具,火车,飞机,大公共,轮船啥的,他也仗着这些作品扬名立万了。到了他创作的后期,基本上是以人物为主了。
