今日故事
这是一个和小朋友们讨论“老”和“死”的故事，小男孩非常爱他的狗狗阿雅，随着时光的流逝，小男孩一天天长大，阿雅却长得比他更快，直到老死。男孩虽然很伤心，却能够成熟坦然地面对，因为他每晚睡觉前都对阿雅说：I'll always love you.
故事听起来有点悲伤，但如果细细品读，就能体会出书中洋溢的温情。这个绘本不仅可以让孩子们明白什么是死亡，还能教会孩子们要懂得及时向所爱的人表达自己的爱意，这样当永别来临时才不会遗憾。

I'll Always Love You
我永远爱你
This is a story about Elfie --the best dog in the whole world.
We grew up together,
but Elfie grew much faster than I did.
I loved resting my head on her warm coat,
Then we would dream together.
My brother and sister loved Elfie very much ,
but she was my dog.
Every day ,Elfie and I played together.
Elfie loved to chase squirrels
and to dig in my mother's flower garden.
Sometimes my folks would get very angry with Elfie
when she would get into mischief.
But they still loved her,
even when they scolded her.
The trouble was,no one told her except me.
The years passed quickly,
and while I was growing taller and taller,
Elfie was growing rounder and rounder.
The older Elfie got,
the more she slept,
and the less she liked to walk.
I was getting worried!
We took Elfie to the vet,
but there wasn't much he could do.
"Elfie is just growing old, " he said.
It soon become too difficult for Elfie to climb the stairs.
But she had to sleep in my room.
I gave Elfie a soft pillow to sleep on,
and before we went to sleep .
I would say to her.
"I'll always love you."
I know she understood.
One morning I woke up
and discovered that Elfie had died during the night.
We buried Elfie together.
We all cried and hugged each other.
My brother and sister loved Elfie a lot,
but they never told her so.
I was very sad ,too,
but it helped to remember that I had told her every night,
"I'll always love you."
A neighbor offered me a puppy.
I knew Elfie wouldn't have minded,
but I said no.
I gave him Elfie's basket instead.
He needed it more than I did.
Someday I'll have another dog,
or a kitten or a goldfish.
But whatever it is,I'll tell it every night:
" I'll always love you."
作者简介
汉斯.威尔罕（Hans Wilhelm）出生于德国，长大后才移民美国，他自谦因为英文不够好，所以必须用更好的图画来为他说话。当他在1985年出本这一本与孩子讨论“老”“死”话题的图画书时，即使实在当时已经相当多元开放的美国，仍然不为大多数人所接受，但是威尔罕坚持这是一个必要。
他认为只要好好呈现这个主题，孩子们不但不会恐惧死亡，还能因为他们了解老、病、死而尽早走出悲伤，用更成熟的态度来面对世界。因此威尔罕用比平常更多的心思，经营出了《我永远爱你》。这本书画得真诚、温馨，教孩子以及时的爱来克服死亡带来的分离与悲痛，已翻译成多国文字，广为世人接受。读过这本图画书的人都会同意，他在让幼儿接受老、病、死的这个主题中，几乎是运用了最完美的方法。
