在風城建一個家
Making a Home in Wind City
「家」是什麼樣子呢?在新竹的香山海岸,座落著臺灣西半部唯一一個靠海的阿美族部落。
四十多年前,老船長為尋找漁獲自臺東一路航行,最終落腳新竹建立家園。
本次以族人遷徙的生命歷程為背景,邀請兒童文學作家與新竹在地插畫家,講述當代航海大冒險。
設計上,為呼應部落的鐵皮屋意象以愣版為書封,中間軋型挖洞,整本書可立起來化身屋頂。
封底黏有收納袋,材質使用阿美族經常作為生活器具的檳榔葉鞘,讓孩童親手感受特殊的肌理,認識採集文化。
因族人與海連結緊密,是海洋子民,故於繪本內頁以水光加工增加互動性。
內容上,除繪本外亦隨書搭配附件本,以透明片為互動機制,邀請讀者一起完成故事情節。
附件本共分為五大領域,跨科老師可依課堂需求進行補充教學。
What makes a home? There is an Amis village along the Hsinchu Xianshan coast that is the only one by the sea on the West Coast.
More than 40 years ago, a captain sailed from Taitung in search of better fishing grounds and settled in Hsinchu. Set within the migratory experience of these Amis people, this series invites a children's literature author and a local illustrator to tell the story of a contemporary maritime adventure.
The cover of the picture book is made of corrugated cardboard to simulate the iron houses common in indigenous neighborhoods. A central puncture allows the cover to transform into a 3D roof. A pocket on the back is made of betel nut leaf sheath, a common material for daily objects. It introduces the Amis gathering culture and provides a unique texture for hands-on experience. The diffraction effect of the pages echoes the people's close ties with the ocean.
An extra feature of transparent pages invites the readers to help complete the story, and can be utilized as interdisciplinary learning material.
