小时候就在想的事

by Tetsuko Kuroyanagi

呈现在这里的，并不是一个优秀孩子的思想，而是一个小学一年级就被退了学的孩子所思考的事。一个刚上了小学一年级几个月就被退了学的孩子，居然在想着怎么去做一个有教养的人，而且还是一个人在默默地思考着！即使大家都觉得我毛病很多，比如天天蹿来蹦去，没有一刻安静，一发现什么有趣的事情马上凑上去，见了任何一个坑都要跳进去，不听大人的话等等，可是我仍然在听，在思考着。“你真是一个好孩子！”先生一直不断地对我说着这句话。那时候我还没有注意到“真是”这个词，想当然地认为自己就是一个好孩子。先生的这句话让我拥有了自信，“因为老师说我是好孩子嘛”。我应该告诉人们，曾经有这么一位校长先生，他真正地爱着孩子们，从心底相信每一个孩子都有自己的才能和出众的个性，他满怀着热情来对待孩子们。近二十年来，我见了众多的儿童和婴儿，我从来不觉得和他们说话是没有用的，我深信他们能够理解。小豆豆回眸当年，发现长大后的所思所想、所作所为都源于自己的童年。《窗边的小豆豆》续篇小豆豆回眸当年，发现长大后的所思所想、所作所为都源于自己的童年你真的了解孩子吗？日本超级畅销书日文版销量超过200万册海报：迪特律是一名德国人，但她在二战中却成为了美国士兵，前去慰问战斗在最前线的美国战士们，她和希特勒及纳粹政权进行了彻底的斗争。对于亲眼目睹了战场上众多悲惨场面，而且被祖国德意志的人们唾弃为“叛国者”的迪特律来说，上述话语无疑是出自她的心底。我说完最后的台词之后，像迪特律那样，深深地躬身致谢。我的眼前浮现出了许许多多的往事，心中不禁百感交集，几乎落下泪来。真是往事如潮啊！当我第一次在这个剧院演出的时候，和我共同主演戏剧《莱迪丝和拉伯第》的山冈久乃君曾经和我约定：“等我病好了，我们再演一次吧！”可是他竟然一病不起。这悲伤的一幕在我脑海中掠过。我抬起头来。这时候，我看到了自己平生从未见过的景象，那就是：剧院中的来宾们都从坐位上站了起来，热情地拍着手！在英美这被称为“Standingovation（起立鼓掌）”，这是一个演员最光荣的瞬间。我把这些掌声作为大家对迪特律表达的敬意，作为惠临四季剧院的来宾们的善意而欣喜地接受了。幕后诸君准备的雪花也飘落到了来宾席上。和我一同演出的久世星佳和矶村千花子两位女士也出来谢幕。演员只有我们三个，再就是演奏家们了。我们鞠躬，挥手，这时候我已经不是迪特律了，我又恢复了自我，向剧院表达了我的感谢。想起小时候红拐杖关于读书再见了，四季剧院多亏了贝多芬“狗耳朵”事件我是LD?爸爸减妈妈?你是个低能!还是窗边的小豆豆和机器狗灰灰一起生活2000年的第一次日出胡瓜鱼戏剧之旅说教我爱着的人们圣诞老人我的外祖父贺卡抢座大妈我的母亲，我的哥哥真正的幸福是什么黄色的花束让孩子幸福一点吧!好甜啊!让孩子上学吧!真正的幸福是什么

About the author

Tetsuko Kuroyanagi (黒柳 徹子) is an internationally famous Japanese actress, a talk show host, a best-selling author of children book.

She founded the Totto Foundation, named for the eponymous and autobiographical protagonist of her book Totto-chan, The Little Girl at the Window. The Foundation professionally trains deaf actors, implementing Kuroyanagi's vision of bringing theater to the deaf.

In 1984, in recognition of her charitable works, Kuroyanagi was appointed to be a Goodwill Ambassador for UNICEF, being the first person from Asia to hold this position. During the late 1980s and the 1990s, she visited many developing countries in Asia and Africa for charitable works and goodwill missions, helping children who had suffered from disasters and war as well as raising international awareness of the situations of children in poor countries. Kuroyanagi has raised more than $20 million for the UNICEF programmes that she has been involved in, through television fund-raising campaigns. She also used the royalties from her bestselling book, Totto-chan, to contribute to UNICEF.

In 1997, Kuroyanagi published the book Totto-chan's Children, which was based on her experience working for as a UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador from 1984 to 1996. Kuroyanagi is a director of the Japanese branch of the World Wildlife Fund.

Kuroyanagi has twice brought America's National Theater of the Deaf to Japan, acting with them in sign language.

For her involvement in media and television entertainment, Kuroyanagi won the Japanese Cultural Broadcasting Award, which is the highest television honour in Japan. Since then, she has been voted 14 times as Japan’s favourite television personality, for the show Tetsuko’s Room.[3]

In 2000, Kuroyanagi became the first recipient of the Global Leadership for Children Award, which was established by UNICEF in the 10th anniversary of the 1990 World Summit for Children. In May 2003, Kuroyanagi received Order of the Sacred Treasure in recognition of her two decades of service for the world’s children.
