Ezra Jack Keats Reihenfolge der Bücher (Chronologisch)

Peter würde so gern pfeifen können! Dann würde sein Hund Willi bestimmt bei jedem Pfiff zu ihm gelaufen kommen. Den ganzen Tag übt Peter, aber es will einfach kein Ton aus seinem Mund herauskommen. Auf einmal, als er schon gar nicht mehr daran glaubt, kommt Willi angerannt, weil er Peters Pfiff gehört hat. Eine starke Geschichte über das Lernen, das manchmal leichter wird, wenn man es nicht zu sehr versucht. Kinder werden hier ermutigt, Dinge neugierig auszuprobieren, an sich selbst zu glauben und sich von Fehlschlägen nicht unterkriegen zu lassen.

A little turtle, two little fish, three little bluebirds, four little muskrats, five little honeybees, six little crows, seven little crickets, eight little lizards, nine little frogs, and ten little fireflies all do what their mothers ask.

Peter longs to be able to whistle for his dog and makes many ingenious attempts.

Archie's day would have been great if he hadn't started it by greeting the new cat on the block.

When Peter finds out that his blue furniture is being painted pink for his new baby sister, he takes the last unpainted item, a chair, and runs away.

This is the simple story of Peter, who longs to whistle for his dog, Willie, and persists until he does. When Whistle for Willie was first published in 1964, The New York Times wrote, "Mr. Keats's illustrations boldly, colorfully capture the child, his city world, and the shimmering heat of a summer's day."

The Snowy Day is the simple tale of a boy waking up to discover that snow has fallen during the night. Keats's illustrations, using cut-outs, watercolors, and collage, are strikingly beautiful in their understated color and composition. The tranquil story mirrors the calm presence of the paintings, and both exude the silence of a freshly snow-covered landscape. The little boy celebrates the snow-draped city with a day of humble adventures--experimenting with footprints, knocking snow from a tree, creating snow angels, and trying to save a snowball for the next day. Awakening to a winter wonderland is an ageless, ever-magical experience, and one made nearly visceral by Keats's gentle tribute. The book is notable not only for its lovely artwork and tone, but also for its importance as a trailblazer. According to Horn Book magazine, The Snowy Day was "the very first full-color picture book to feature a small black hero"--yet another reason to add this classic to your shelves. It's as unique and special as a snowflake.
