To Leon Werth
I ask the indulgence of the children who may read this book for dedicating it to a grown-up. I have a serious reason: he is the best friend I have in the world. I have another reason: this grown-up understands everything, even books about children. I have a third reason: he lives in France where he is hungry and cold. He needs cheering up. If all these reasons are not enough, I will dedicate the book to the child from whom this grown-up grew. All grown-ups were once children-- although few of them remember it. And so I correct my dedication:
To Leon Werth
when he was a little boy
献给列翁.维尔特
我请孩子们原谅我把这本书献给了一个大人。我有一个很重要的理由:这个大人是我在世界上最好的朋友。我还有另一个理由:这个大人他什么都能懂,甚至给孩子 们写的书他也能懂。我的第三个理由是:这个大人住在法国,他在那里挨饿、受冻。他很需要安慰。如果这些理由还不够的话,那么我愿意把这本书献给儿童时代的 这个大人。所有的大人都曾经是孩子。(可惜,只有很少的一些大人记得这一点。)因此,我就把献词改为:
献给还是小男孩时的列翁.维尔特
