星期一到星期天，不同的心情，要吃什么不同的食物呢？

小朋友再想一想，如果你要当一个小主人，请动物们来吃饭，哪些动物会喜欢吃哪些食物呢？
绘本大师卡尔爷爷的Today Is Monday《今天是星期一》改编自一首童谣，因此语言本身非常具有韵律感，朗朗上口，容易学习，同时它将教会小朋友菜单的概念。

绘本通过将星期和食物分类，写出七个有规律的小句子，并加以堆叠，让宝宝在学习新词汇的同时巩固前面的词汇，这样不容易忘记。

String beans, spaghetti, ZOOOOP, roast beef, fresh fish, chicken and ice cream are the delicious fare during the week in this popular children’s song. Until Sunday. Then, all the world’s children are invited to come together and share in the meal. Celebrated artist Eric Carle brings new energy to these much-loved verses as lively animals parade across the page, munching on favorite dishes, and introducing young readers to the names of the days of the week. Both art and song invite children to join in the procession and sing along.

Today Is Monday《今天是星期一》也是艾瑞·卡尔（Eric Carle）的作品之一。这首韵律诗带来新的能量，动物们都在一幅幅页面上尽情游走，尽情咀嚼它们的美食，同时教会小朋友一周中每一天的名字。

豆角、意大利面、趣味小饼、烤牛排、鲜鱼、鸡肉和冰激凌在这首一星期的童歌里都是超美味的食物。然后全世界的小朋友都被邀请来一起享受这份美餐。

艾瑞·卡尔，1929年出生于纽约，1935年随父母返德国定居。艾瑞·卡尔讨厌德国式的教育，专业教育下的学校生活及时代的战乱，让他的少年时光并不快乐。战后，从小就展露绘画天分且向往自由浪漫的艾瑞·卡尔，在中学绘画老师的推荐及母亲的鼓励下，进入斯图加特艺术学院学习了四年的商业设计，一毕业即在时尚杂志担任艺术总监。1952年，艾瑞·卡尔再次踏上他要实现梦想的土地——美国。因缘巧合，艾瑞·卡尔得到李欧·李奥尼的赏识和推荐，顺利开始他在《纽约时报》的工作，发挥美术兼广告设计的长才。1960年成立了个人工作室，辛勤工作之外，他更渴望蜕变、渴望创作！

1967年，艾瑞·卡尔首次有机会为孩子的书配上插画，这次充满乐趣、大胆发挥创意的过程，让他感觉畅快淋漓，也引领他日后走向为儿童创作图画书的道路。他年近40才开始创作图画书，迄今为止，已经创作了《棕色的熊、棕色的熊，你在看什么？》、《好饿的毛毛虫》、《海马先生》、《爸爸，我要月亮》等70多本色彩缤纷、富含想象力的拼贴画风格的图画书，被翻译成了多种语言，小读者遍布世界各地，并荣获多项世界著名儿童图画书奖。他笔下那条著名的毛毛虫，已被翻译成近50种语言版本，销量突破3300万，风行世界40余年。
