奥利弗·巴特沃斯,1915年出生在美国康涅狄格州的哈特福德。曾经执教于中学和大学。他的作品受马克·吐温的影响较大,文字幽默风趣。《我的宠物是恐龙》发表于1965年,1977年被列为美国“不可忘怀的好书”之一,还被改编成了电视片,获得很大成功。本书中,作者并没有满足于如此精彩有趣的情节,他想告诉孩子们的,是故事背后的更多的东西:权力、金钱并不能凌驾于人们美好的心灵之上,爱与自由才是我们真正的追求。
Oliver Butterworth, born 1915 in Hartford, Connecticut. Once taught in high school and university. His work is more influenced by Mark Twain, his humorous writing. “My pet is a dinosaur,” published in 1965, was listed as one of the “unforgettable books” by the United States in 1977, and was also adapted into a television program with great success. In this book, the author is not satisfied with such a wonderful and interesting episode. What he wants to tell his children is more behind the story: power and money do not go beyond people’s beautiful hearts, and love and freedom are Our real pursuit.
