FOLDED WISDOM: NOTES FROM DAD ON LIFE, LOVE, AND GROWING UP
Book ID/图书代码： 02330018C00028
English Summary/英文概要： Poignant, inspirational, and deeply moving, Folded Wisdom is a testament to the depth of a father’s love for his children. In this lavishly illustrated gift book, Joanna Guest shares the beautiful and insightful notes her artist father left her every day for nearly 15 years.
For her entire childhood, Joanna’s father, an artist by training, had a morning ritual: wake up early, walk the dog, and sit down at the kitchen table with two blank sheets of paper and plenty of colored markers. On those pages, every morning, he would craft a note to young Joanna and her brother Theo. Over the years, these beautifully illustrated and heartwarming notes morphed from word games and puzzles for five-year-olds to thoughtful guidance, advice, and reflections for teens approaching adulthood. Each morning, without fail, her father would have a note waiting for his two children.
Now, with more than 3,000 of her father’s colorful, vibrant, touching notes in hand, Joanna has chosen the most poignant and collected them into this beautiful book. With the illustrated notes throughout, the book is organized by themes such as Saying You’re Sorry, Love, Friendship, Teamwork, and more. These notes are full of messages we all need to hear. Heartfelt and full of possibility for the future, the notes are timeless and relevant reminders of our common humanity. They are easily applicable to each of our lives.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 《折叠的智慧》一书深刻尖锐，鼓舞人心，并且感人至深，证明了父亲对孩子的爱有多深！在这本插图丰富的寄赠书中，乔安娜•盖斯特分享了来自艺术家父亲近15年来每天给她留下的美丽而深刻的笔记。
乔安娜的父亲是一名训练有素的艺术家，在她的整个童年里，父亲有一套晨起惯例：早起，遛狗，然后坐在厨房的桌子旁，手里拿着两张白纸和许多彩色笔。每天早晨，在那些白纸上，他会给年幼的乔安娜以及她的弟弟西奥写一张便条。多年来，这些插图精美、文字暖心的记录从适合5岁儿童的文字游戏和谜题演变成对即将成年的青少年的深思熟虑的指导、建议和反思。每天早晨，她的父亲总会为两个孩子各准备一张便条。
现在，乔安娜手里有3000多张她父亲写的色彩斑斓、充满活力、感人肺魄的便条，她选择了其中最辛酸的部分，并把它们收集到这本美丽的书中。插图笔记贯穿了本书，主题包括”说对不起“、”爱“、”友谊“、”团队合作“等等。这些笔记满载了我们需要了解的信息。这些笔记是永恒不朽的，提醒了我们共同的人性，适用于我们每个人的生活。（XMM）
