Backwards Through the Day

이 책에서 만나는 것

사라진 단추를 찾으려고 하루 동안 다닌 곳을 거꾸로 되짚는 과정을 읽고, 사람이 간 곳뿐 아니라 물건이 옮겨 간 길도 함께 생각해 봐요.

물건을 잃어버렸다가 찾은 경험이 있으면 좋아요. 아침, 점심, 오후, 저녁처럼 하루의 순서를 말해 본 경험도 도움이 돼요. 세 장으로 나누어 읽어도 괜찮아요.

함께 만나는 표현

• After supper, Mum sat down to finish the new cushion cover. It needed only one more thing: the big wooden button she had bought at the market.
• She reached into her apron pocket. It was empty. She looked in her tin of threads, then under the cushion cover. “The button is gone,” she said. “It was in my pocket this morning.”
• Elio jumped up. “I will look everywhere!” “Everywhere is a very big place,” said Mum. “Let’s look only where I have been today, and let’s go backwards.”
• Mum went back through the day. “Before this, I rested on the bench by the gate. Before that, I hung the washing. And first thing this morning, I was out picking beans.”
• The bench came first, because Mum had been there last. Elio crawled underneath. “Found it!” he shouted, and held up something round and brown. It was a pebble.
• Next came the washing line. Bori walked under the three white sheets, looking down at every blade of grass. She found one wooden peg, but no button.
• Elio sat down on the path. “Maybe a bird took it,” he said. “Maybe,” said Mum, “but we have one more place to look before we start guessing.”
• Last of all, but first of the day, was the bean bed. They went between the tall plants and looked under every leaf. There were beans, and more beans, and no button.
• “What did you do here, exactly?” asked Elio. Mum bent over the bean plants. “I had the basket right beside me,” she said, “and I was picking beans like this.”
• “It is not on the ground,” said Elio. “So if it fell out while you were picking, it fell into the basket. Where did the beans go after that?”
• “Into the green bowl,” said Mum. They hurried inside and took the bean pods out, a few at a time. Near the bottom, something clicked against the bowl.
• There lay the big wooden button, right where they had started. “It was never lost,” said Elio. “It just went where the beans went.” Mum stitched it on before bedtime.

엘리오 고유의 원문 전체예요. 그림은 4장만 실었고, 모든 그림은 전체 화면 읽기에서 볼 수 있어요.

1. The Empty Pocket

   After supper, Mum sat down to finish the new cushion cover. It needed only one more thing: the big wooden button she had bought at the market.

   엄마가 쿠션 덮개를 마무리하려는 장면이에요. 탁자 위 물건을 하나씩 살펴봐요.

2. 

   She reached into her apron pocket. It was empty. She looked in her tin of threads, then under the cushion cover. “The button is gone,” she said. “It was in my pocket this morning.”

   엄마가 단추를 찾아본 곳을 차례대로 짚어 보고, 아침에는 주머니에 있었다는 말을 기억해 둬요.

3. Elio jumped up. “I will look everywhere!” “Everywhere is a very big place,” said Mum. “Let’s look only where I have been today, and let’s go backwards.”

   모든 곳을 찾는 방법과 엄마가 제안한 방법이 어떻게 다른지 이야기해 봐요.

4. Mum went back through the day. “Before this, I rested on the bench by the gate. Before that, I hung the washing. And first thing this morning, I was out picking beans.”

   엄마가 하루를 거꾸로 말한 순서(의자, 빨랫줄, 콩밭)를 손가락으로 세어 봐요.

5. Three Places, No Button

   

   The bench came first, because Mum had been there last. Elio crawled underneath. “Found it!” he shouted, and held up something round and brown. It was a pebble.

   하루의 마지막에 간 곳이 거꾸로 찾을 때는 처음이 돼요. 엘리오가 찾은 것이 무엇인지 확인해요.

6. Next came the washing line. Bori walked under the three white sheets, looking down at every blade of grass. She found one wooden peg, but no button.

   빨랫줄 아래에서 찾은 것과 찾지 못한 것을 나누어 말해 봐요.

7. Elio sat down on the path. “Maybe a bird took it,” he said. “Maybe,” said Mum, “but we have one more place to look before we start guessing.”

   엘리오가 지친 마음에 한 짐작과, 엄마가 짐작보다 먼저 하자고 한 일을 구분해 봐요.

8. Last of all, but first of the day, was the bean bed. They went between the tall plants and looked under every leaf. There were beans, and more beans, and no button.

   거꾸로 걸어 하루의 첫 장소인 콩밭에 왔어요. 그래도 단추가 없다는 것을 확인해요.

9. Where the Beans Went

   

   “What did you do here, exactly?” asked Elio. Mum bent over the bean plants. “I had the basket right beside me,” she said, “and I was picking beans like this.”

   엄마가 아침에 한 몸짓을 다시 해 보이는 장면이에요. 엘리오가 무엇을 눈여겨보는지 함께 봐요.

10. “It is not on the ground,” said Elio. “So if it fell out while you were picking, it fell into the basket. Where did the beans go after that?”

    엘리오가 사람이 간 길 대신 콩이 간 길을 묻는 순간이에요. 이 질문이 왜 중요한지 이야기해 봐요.

11. “Into the green bowl,” said Mum. They hurried inside and took the bean pods out, a few at a time. Near the bottom, something clicked against the bowl.

    콩깍지를 조금씩 꺼내는 장면이에요. 그릇 바닥에서 무슨 소리가 났을지 상상해 봐요.

12. There lay the big wooden button, right where they had started. “It was never lost,” said Elio. “It just went where the beans went.” Mum stitched it on before bedtime.

    단추는 처음 찾기 시작한 부엌의 콩 그릇 속에 있었어요. 범인 없이 풀린 수수께끼를 함께 정리해 봐요.

보호자와 함께 읽는 법

읽기 전

표지의 초록 그릇과 쿠션 덮개를 함께 보고, 물건을 잃어버리면 어디부터 찾는지 물어봐요.

읽는 동안

엄마가 하루를 거꾸로 말하는 장면에서 손가락으로 저녁, 오후, 점심, 아침을 짚어 봐요. 부엌 장면마다 탁자 위 초록 콩 그릇이 있는지도 슬쩍 봐 두세요.

이야기 나누기

단추는 누가 가져갔나요? 아무도 가져가지 않았다는 것을 원문에서 확인하고, 엘리오가 마지막에 한 질문이 왜 도움이 되었는지 이야기해요.

읽은 뒤

오늘 하루를 거꾸로 말해 보는 놀이를 해 봐요. 무엇을 했는지와 함께 내 물건이 어디로 옮겨 갔는지도 떠올려 봐요. 정답을 맞혀야 하는 시간은 아니에요.
