★ 套書《山林與海之歌》英譯本正式發行！！★ 2019瓜達拉哈拉書展臺灣館主題書區「臺灣：故事之島」選書。★ 《泰雅勇士大步向前》獲選為第40屆「中小學生優良課外讀物」圖畫書類。★ 與中文原版同款「巴冷公主」封面，傳承經典故事，雋刻永恆記憶。★ 阿爾卑斯山獎、日本大島博物館繪本獎、義大利安徒生獎常勝軍畫家―湯瑪士．瑞杰可（Tomáš Řízek）作品！The Song of Mountains, Forest and SeaTaiwan is an island in the Pacific Ocean off the coast of mainland China. For centuries, the island has had a diverse mix of cultures and languages. The indigenous tribes on the island are distinctive examples. Their languages are classified as Austronesian languages close to those of the inhabitants of today's Philippines, Indonesia or New Guinea and Polynesia. Taiwan has thus become the platform where you can see the influences brought by the migrants from Pacific and Indian Ocean islands. The literary tradition of the Taiwanese is very rich, although they do not have their own writing system. The key to choose these three stories is the title of the book loosely hidden by the topics of the selected stories. It contains the natural elements that make up the world around us.

While Solly is evacuated and tries his best to adjust to life in the English countryside, Bernie's parents know that as Jews they're not safe staying in Warsaw, so they send Bernie to the Russian-occupied side of the country in the hope that he'll be safer there.Soon, though, he is arrested and sent off to a forced labour camp in Russia.As the cousins exchange sporadic letters, they try to keep their spirits up, trading jokes and observations about the world changing all around them.Then Bernie seizes the opportunity to join the "Anders Army" and fight the Axis powers, and tells Solly all about his experiences in Iran and eventually Italy, where he fights alongside the British at the famous Battle of Monte Cassino.Does Bernie survive and find a safe place to call home?
