Children's Literature(Week 3) 上課筆記


1.Syllabus



    Winnie-the-Pooh, also called Pooh Bear, is a fiction alanthropomorphic bear created by A. A. Milne. The first collection of stories about the character was the book Winnie-the-Pooh(1926), and this was followed by The House at Pooh Corner(1928). Milne also included a poem about the bear in the children’s verse book When We Were Very Young (1924) and many more in Now We Are Six (1927). All four volumes were illustrated by E. H. Shepard.

(Hyphens in the character's name were dropped by Disney when the company adapted the Pooh stories into a series of featuresthat became one of its most successful franchises.)

(3)Hundred Acre Wood






    The Hundred Acre Wood , based on the real-life Five Hundred Acre Wood in Ashdown Forest, is a part of the land inhabited by Winnie-the-Pooh and his friends in the Winnie-the-Pooh series of children's stories by author A. A. Milne. The wood is visited regularly by the young boy Christopher Robin, who accompanies Pooh and company on their many adventures.

     In A. A. Milne's books, the term "Hundred Acre Wood" is actually used for a specific part of the larger Forest, centred around Owl's house (see the map in the book, as well as numerous references in the text to the characters going "into" or "out of" the Hundred Acre Wood as they go between Owl's house and other Forest locations). However, in the Pooh movies, and in general conversation with most Pooh fans, "The Hundred Acre Wood" is used for the entire world of Winnie-the-Pooh, the Forest and all the places it contains.

Somewhere Over The Rainbow



Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high.
There's a land that I heard of
Once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue.
And the dreams that you dare to dream
Really do come true.

Someday I'll wish upon a star and 
Wake up where the clouds are far 
Behind me. 
Where troubles melt like lemon drops, 
away above the chimney tops. 


That's where you'll find me. 
Somewhere over the rainbow,bluebirds fly. 
Birds fly over the rainbow. 
Why,then,why can't I?
If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow. 
Why, oh, why can't I?

(16)John Denver Today



"Today"

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrow shall all pass away, 'ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today.
I'll be a dandy and I'll be a rover, you'll know who I am by the songs that I sing.
I'll feast at your table, I'll sleep in your clover, who cares what tomorrow shall bring?

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrow shall all pass away, 'ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today.
I can't be contented with yesterday's glory, I can't live on promises winter to spring.
Today is my moment, now is my story, I'll laugh and I'll cry and I'll sing.

Today while the blossoms still cling to the vine,
I'll taste your strawberries, I'll drink your sweet wine.
A million tomorrow shall all pass away, 'ere I forget all the joy that is mine, today.
