IVY AND BEAN: NO NEWS IS GOOD NEWS

Book ID/图书代码： 03080112B55052

English Summary/英文概要： Ivy and Bean need some money. Ten dollars, to be exact. Never mind what for. Don’t even ask. Okay. It’s for cheese. Two bags of lowfat Belldeloon cheese in a special just-for-you serving size. Don’t ask why.

But ten dollars is a lot of money. How are Bean and Ivy going to make ten dollars? Should they babysit? Eww, diapers. No. Should they wash the car? They’re not allowed to touch the car. No. Should they write a newspaper about their neighbors and sell it? Great idea—and easy too! Yes. All Ivy and Bean have to do is snoop around Pancake Court and gets some news. It’s very interesting what you can find out if you look in your neighbors’ windows. It’s even more interesting when the neighbors read about it in the newspaper.

Chinese Summary/中文概要： 艾薇和豆豆需要一些錢。確切地說是十美元。不為別的，只為低脂肪的Belldeloon乳酪能為她們所用。不要問為什麼。艾薇和豆豆是如何弄到十美元？嘿，也許他們應該寫一篇有關讚美煎餅的文章登在報上，把它賣掉！很棒的主意！而且輕而易舉。他們要做的就是向周圍鄰居四處打探。哇 … …他們可以從中找到非常有趣的事物。更有意思的是當鄰居們在報紙上讀到她們的這篇文章。(Sandy)

About the Author/作者介绍： 安妮•拜羅斯是美國著名童書作家，也是美國作家瑪麗•安•謝弗（Mary Ann Shaffer，1934—2008）的外甥女，在姨媽因病無法繼續寫作時，她毅然放下了自己手中的書，接手文稿的全部修訂工作，最終完成整部作品，並使作品在全球獲得無限讚譽與光榮。其與姑媽合著的《The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society》，導致超過有一百萬冊的平裝版和精裝版副本銷售一空，《人物》雜誌稱其為“這是有關愛，戰爭和從中可以發現精神食量的，以及講述友情的一部傑作。”《Guernsey》榮獲了年代最佳十五項提名，現在這本書已在二十五國家發行。
安妮•拜羅斯出生於聖地牙哥的書香世家，隨後不久搬到三藩市海灣地區。她童年大部分的時光都呆在圖書館；"因為我不會離開，所以他們乾脆在我十二歲時雇我去整理書架。"在加入加州大學伯克利分校後，她獲得了中世紀歷史學士學位，在發表了一系列作品後，她被出版社提升為高級編輯，也是在那裡她的作品《Griffin & Sabine》第一次榮登《紐約時報》暢銷書排行榜。
從米爾斯學院獲得創意寫作藝術碩士後，她開始成為一位全職作家。她的第一部兒童系列Ivy and Bean于2006年出版並在2007年獲得美國作家協會最佳童書獎；其後的其他四部系列作品，和第六部系列童書於2009年秋季出版。她在2008年出版的獨立兒童小說，《The Magic Half》，圖書館期刊稱其為"是一部洋溢著神秘、魔幻、和冒險的，令人愉快的故事。"
安妮和她的丈夫和兩個女兒一起住在北加州。

Annie Barrows’s collaboration with her late aunt Mary Ann Shaffer, The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society, has been a publishing phenomenon, resulting in well over one million copies in print in both hardcover and paperback, and speaking engagements for Barrows all over the country. People magazine called it “a small masterpiece about love, war, and the immeasurable sustenance to be found in good books and good friends.” Guernsey was on more than fifteen “best of the year” lists, and has now been published in twenty-five countries.
Annie Barrows was born in San Diego into a family of book lovers and moved to the San Francisco Bay Area shortly thereafter. She spent most of her childhood at the library; “because I wouldn’t leave, they hired me to shelve books at the age of twelve.” After attending UC Berkeley and getting a BA in Medieval History, she had a succession of publishing jobs, rising to the position of senior editor at Chronicle Books, where she acquired their first New York Times bestseller, Griffin & Sabine.
After receiving an MFA in Creative Writing from Mills College, she began writing full time. The first book in her children’s series Ivy and Bean was published in 2006 and was an ALA Notable book for 2007; it was followed by four others, with the sixth book in the series to be published in fall 2009. Her 2008 stand-alone children’s novel, The Magic Half, was described by School Library Journal as “a delightful tale brimming with mystery, magic, and adventure.”
While Annie was producing her children’s books, her beloved aunt Mary Ann Shaffer, who had also spent her career working with books, had started a first novel about the German occupation of the Channel Island of Guernsey during World War II. However, she fell ill soon after selling the novel to the Dial Press, and to complete her revisions, she called on her niece Annie, who saw this “as a unique occasion to help someone I loved.” Sadly, Mary Ann died before seeing her novel embraced by hundreds of thousands of readers, but the novel itself stands as a moving legacy to her dream.
Annie lives in Northern California with her husband and two daughters. She is currently working on a novel for adults and a seventh Ivy and Bean book for children.
