مطرة أحلامي

Rate this book
الرف الثالث من الخزانة الثالثة في ممر الرفوف رقم ثلاثة…وجدت أكثر شيء أردته في حياتي…مطرة أحلامي!!!
مطرة ماء بنفسجية لها غطاء زهري مرسوم عليه مهرة على جبينها قرن ذهبي لماع وذيلها وغرتها عليها ألوان قوس قزح. بل وفوق ذلك كله للمطرة شريط كي تضعها على كتفك فيصبح شكل المطرة يشبه حقيبة يد أمك تماما تماما. تناولتها من على الرف وحضنت تلك المطرة الجميلة وشممتها. رائحتها تشبه البلاستيك الرائع!
هذا ما قالته جي جي جابري عن مطرتها، لكن ماذا لو تفقدتها في اليوم التالي ولم تجدها

And there, by chance, on the third shelf of the third... I found the thing I had wanted most in my life... My dream water bottle!
It was a purple water bottle with a pink lid, and a golden shiny unicorn was drawn on its forehead. Its tail and ribs were the rainbow colors. And on top of all that, the water bottle had a strap that you could put on your shoulder, so it looked exactly like your mother's purse. I grabbed it, hugged it and smelled it. Its scent was like that of wonderful plastic!
This is what Jiji Jabri felt towards her water bottle. But what if she lost it the next day and couldn't find it?

"شعرت بأشياء غريبة في قلبي. شعرت به كأنه يتجعد شيئا فشيئا. لم أكن اعلم أن العيش دون أمانة يسبب التجعدات في القلب! العيش دون امانة لم يكن مريحا ابدا".

عالم الأطفال البريء 🥰🥰🥰

تكتب الأستاذة ماريا دعدوش بأسلوب يمس القلب، تتقمص شخصية الطفل وتعبر عما يدور بداخله بأسلوب لطيف وطريف للغاية، بعيدا عن اسلوب النصائح والارشادات الأبوية المباشرة. تجعل الطفل يفكر ويحل مشكلته، لأنها تؤمن أن الأطفال لا يحبون النصائح، وكذلك لا يتعاطفون مع الأبطال المثاليين، لذلك تختار ابطالها أطفال طبيعيون يخطئون ويتعلمون من أخطائهم.
