上周末去小区绘本馆给宝宝借英文绘本的时候跟店员聊了几句，谈到怎么给孩子读英文绘本时，店员无不羡慕地说，还是你们学英语的好，可以给孩子讲英文绘本。小鹿当时就想，我是不是也可以把自己平时给宝宝讲绘本的语言记录下来，跟希望给孩子做英语启蒙的读者们分享呢。于是，就有了这篇文章。这篇文章里记录的是我平时给孩子讲绘本的语言组织情况，可供有一定英语基础却苦于难以即兴组织语言的家长们参考。当然，给孩子讲的英语本就讲究句子和用词尽量简单，相信有一定英语功底的家长们多琢磨也能有自己独特的绘本讲法，希望小鹿的文章可以给家长们以启发，在英语启蒙的路上越走越好。

结合上次教大家如何介绍户外环境的文章，今天小鹿选择的绘本是向宝宝介绍四季更替的经典绘本《I am a bunny》，一起来读吧。

正式开讲前，我们可以用几句简单的话引入主题:

Hi babe,let's do some reading.宝宝，我们一起读绘本吧。

How about this book?这本书怎么样？

This book looks interesting, do you want to read it?这本书看起来很有趣，你想看吗？

Let's sit down at the table together.我们一起到桌子边上坐好。

This book tells us about the story of a bunny.这本书讲的是一个关于兔子的故事。

我在讲绘本时并不仅限于对着绘本上的字读，还会引导孩子去观察整幅图，比如说第一页:
