Toad Heaven
あらすじ・解説
'Ouch,' said Limpy. 'Why's my back hurting?' A horrible thought hit him. Perhaps it was a fork wound. Perhaps while he was unconscious the human had tried to eat him. He looked around. 'Stack me,' said Limpy. All he could see was blue plastic.
Limpy's on a quest to find toad heaven. A place where cane toads won't be blown up with bike pumps or bashed over the head with folding chairs. Limpy's determined to find this place if it takes the rest of his life. But first he has to get out of the bucket.
The stirring saga of one cane toad's dream - and what happens when he wakes up.
批評家のレビュー
"This hero's quest features a most unusual hero – the cane toad, considered by some to be the national pest of Australia. Limpy, the lame hero, dreams of leading his species to a safe haven – a national park free of persecuting humans with their off-road vehicles. Accompanied by his little sister, Charm, and his best friend, Goliath, he overcomes danger by using his head in surprising and resourceful ways. Clever word play will tickle children and adults. Not all authors make the best readers of their own work, but Gleitzman is just right. It's all satisfying fun with some valuable lessons about loyalty, persistence, and the value of brains over brawn." (AudioFile Magazine)
Audible制作部より
Life for Limpy and the rest of his family of cane toads is not particularly easy. There’s errant car tires, threatening lawn chairs, and blunt bike pumps. Fortunately, the slightly squashed but valiant toad has heard of a place safe from the danger of humans. Toad Heaven, written and performed with a perfect enthusiasm by the award-winning children’s author Morris Gleitzman, is the comical and somewhat-inspiring journey of Limpy and his friends as they navigate the wild world of human roadways and ferocious fire ants in search of a nature preserve for all of the cane toads to live in safely and happily.
