Overview

《借东西的小人在野外》

Pod, Homily, and Arrietty Clock's huge adventures have been thrilling children young and old for fifty years--and their appeal is as strong as ever in these handsome new paperback packages. While the original beloved interior illustrations by Beth and Joe Krush have been retained, Marla Frazee's striking cover illustrations capture these little people with a larger-than-life appeal.

波德一家在人类的大搜捕中逃离了地板下的家，开始了颠沛流离的野外生活。他们打算去投奔住在獾洞里的亨德瑞利舅舅一家，但到那里时，亲戚们已不知去向。他们捡到一只破靴子，把它拖到河岸的洞里搭建了一个临时的家。阿瑞埃蒂结识了从吉卜赛人那里借东西的男孩斯皮勒。斯皮勒时常用自己的打猎收获接济这些初到野外的同类。
冬天来了，住在靴子里的波德一家弹尽粮绝，喝光最后一点酒后沉沉睡去，醒来发现到了一辆吉卜赛人的大车上！这是怎么回事呢？他们能从吉卜赛人那里逃脱吗？斯皮勒又是怎么帮他们和亨德瑞利舅舅一家团聚的呢？雪貂男孩汤姆是他们的福星还是杀手？
