Book Description
圖畫書是西洋插圖文學的一種流行形式。圖畫書中的插圖使用了油畫、水彩或鉛筆畫等。西洋的圖畫書，有些針對幼兒使用非常基本的語言，用於幫助孩童提高閱讀技能，用的是兒童可以理解但不一定會閱讀的詞彙書寫的。出於這個原因，圖畫書往往在兒童的生活中有兩個功能：首先由成年人唸給給幼兒聽，然後兒童一旦開始學習讀就漸能自己閱讀。不過，有些圖畫書則是為青少年而編寫的，採用更適合其年齡的主題與語言。 英文的童話書，對國人而言，其遣詞用字其實蠻適合初級或中級的英文學習者拿來做為進修的閱讀材料。再加上拜科技進步之賜，許多電腦及行動裝置的閱讀應用程式已提供有「文字轉語音（TTS）」的自動朗讀功能，其話質表現日益精進，已逐漸貼近專業的錄音品質，【Google Play圖書app】就是其中佼佼者。邊看圖，邊學英文，再加上「有聲書」的效能，一舉三得，如此的閱讀方式可謂人生一大樂事！

Book Description
The hero is the youngest of three brothers, given the nickname Simpleton. His eldest brother is sent into the forest to chop wood, fortified with a rich cake and a bottle of wine. He meets a little gray man who begs a morsel to eat and a swallow of ale but is rebuffed. The eldest brother meets an accident and is taken home. The second brother meets a similar fate. Simpleton, sent out with a biscuit cooked in the ashes of the hearth and soured beer, is generous with the little old man and is rewarded with a golden goose. The goose has been discovered within the roots of the tree chosen by the little gray man and felled by Simpleton. Simpleton takes the Golden Goose to market.With the goose under his arm, Simpleton heads for an inn where as soon as his back is turned, the innkeeper's daughter attempts to pluck just one of the feathers of pure gold and is stuck fast. Her sister comes to help her and is stuck fast too. The youngest daughter is determined not to be left out of the riches where she ends up stuck to the second. Simpleton makes his way to the castle and each person who attempts to interfere is joined to the unwilling parade ranging from the parson, his sexton, and two laborers. In the castle lives the King with the Princess who has never laughed. But the despondent Princess, sitting by the window and glimpsing the parade staggering after Simpleton and his golden goose, laughs until she cries. Some versions include an additional three trials. Simpleton succeeds in all with the help of his little gold friend and finally wins the princess, living happily ever after.(Reprint) (Large Print)
