Syd Hoff (September 4, 1912 Bronx, New York – May 12, 2004) was a Jewish-American cartoonist and children's book author. Although best known for his classic early reader Danny and the Dinosaur, his cartoons appeared in a multitude of genres, including advertising commissions for such companies as Eveready Batteries, Jell-O, S.O.S Pads, Rambler, Ralston Cereal and more.
While Hoff was still in high school, Milt Gross, a popular 1930s cartoonist, told him at an assembly that "Kid, someday you'll be a great cartoonist!" At 16, he enrolled at the National Academy of Design in New York City. At 18, he sold his first cartoon to The New Yorker, and would sell a total of 571 of them to the publication from 1931 to 1975. Hoff became known for his cartoons, in The New Yorker, depicting tenements and lower-middle class life in the city.
Hoff drew two long-running syndicated comic strips: Tuffy (1939–1949) and Laugh It Off (1958–1978). One of Hoff's recurring characters, a walrus-mustached man, eventually appeared as the father in his daily Tuffy, done for the King Features Syndicate from 1940 to 1950.
His cartoons have appeared in a variety of publications including, the New Yorker, Esquire, Look magazine. He was also the host of a television show, Tales of Hoff, in which he drew and told stories.
Hoff wrote and illustrated over 60 volumes in the HarperCollins "I Can Read" series for beginning readers, most notably Sammy the Seal and the popular Danny and the Dinosaur (1958), which sold 10 million copies and has been translated into a dozen languages.
In 1976, Hoff edited and published Editorial and Political Cartooning: From Earlier Times to the Present, which contains over 700 examples of works from the world's editorial and political cartoons.

评分I've always loved this little book. I think I must have read it when I was a child, because when I found it when my own children were small it was like a coming-home. Now I can read it to the grandchildren!
评分印刷装潢以及绘本内的形象,都令人喜欢。孩子今天非要把它放在书包里带着。
评分就是看中京东的价格了,相当给力哈,汪的书单里的书就京东的价格最便宜,希望京东根据汪的书单把所有的书都进齐吧
评分从传统语文教学观到大语文教学观是一个从知识本位向人本位的转化过程。它不再以“传道、授业、解惑”为教学的根本目的,而是以学会学习,促进人格与个性全面发展为重点。从这一理念出发,学生的主体地位必须得到保证,自主学习习惯必须得到培养。让学生自由选择自己爱读的书籍,本身就是尊重学生个性的表现。而学生由封闭式读书转为开放式阅读,本身又极大激发其自主学习的积极性。通过大力推动课外阅读,让学生自己去获取,去探求,去寻觅,去掌握,从而感受读书的乐趣,激发更强烈的读书欲望,最终形成习惯。课外阅读把追求学问变成学生自觉自愿的行动,有助于实现增强学生的主体意识,发展学生的主体能力,塑造学生的主体人格的目的。
评分要收齐全套I Can Read,以后给孩子看
评分好喜欢这本
