内容简介
From Publishers Weekly Well before Goodnight， Moon ， Brown retold a series of classic stories for Walt Disney， among them this kindly version of the classic Aesop's fable. Moore's intensely colored， filmic illustrations magnify a miniature world and add an art deco flavor. His top-hatted， unsinkably jaunty grasshopper breezes onto the summer landscape， fiddling and singing--and ignored， for the most part， by the diligent ants. A particularly effective spread shows the industrious insects slicing carrots with a crosscut saw and sending radishes down a wooden chute. After the first snowfall， of course， the happy-go-lucky hopper's tune changes and， frozen and remorseful， he knocks at the ants' door and asks for help. Lessening the severity of the original fable， Brown reverses the ending: her ants welcome the grasshopper， warm him up with a bowl of "hot corn soup" and hire him to be the anthill's resident entertainer.
