你说的会不会是《弗朗西丝的面包加果酱》（Bread and Jam for Frances）？读到你的评论前我把这本书忘得一干二净，结果一下全想起来了。弗朗西丝跳着绳、吃着吐司夹果酱。我们大脑这种能随机记住零碎东西的机制真是奇妙……
Could you be thinking of Bread and Jam for Frances? I had completely forgotten about this book until I read your comment and it popped back into my head. Frances jumping rope and eating toast and jam. It’s weird the way our brains can remember random…
这是我这辈子最喜欢的书，是我高中英语老师推荐给我的。 拉塞尔·霍班更出名的是他的童书，比如《弗朗西丝的面包加果酱》，我小时候妈妈给我买过。
This is my favorite book of all time, introduced to me by a high school English teacher. Russel Hoban is more famous for his children's books such as Bread & Jam for Frances, which my Mom got me as a kid.
……讨论我们想要达成的目标时效果更好。当孩子们还很小的时候，我们不太讲大道理，而是读有故事的书，然后讨论那些故事。比如《弗朗西丝的面包加果酱》或者《早餐的煎饼》。我发现刚学会走路的小孩都是绝佳的观察者，但在逻辑推理方面就不太行了 :-)。
…discussions about what we were trying to achieve where more successful. When they were very young, we didn't talk about things so much as we read books with stories and we talked about the stories. Things like Bread and Jam for Frances or Pancakes for Breakfast. I found toddlers to be great observers, and not so great at reasoning :-).
……具体来说，就是去做没那么好玩的事情，也能引出好玩的结果。次要目标则是去寻找其他同样好玩的事情。后面这个目标是在读了像《弗朗西丝的面包加果酱》这样的故事后受到启发的——书里的女主角认识到，面包加果酱虽然好吃，但世界上不止有这些。我当时并没意识到，但寻找同样有趣事物的次要目标其实变得非常……
…specifically that working on something not as fun can lead to something fun. The secondary goal turned out to be to find other things that are just as fun. This latter goal was abetted by reading stories like "Bread and Jam for Frances" in which our heroine learns that while Bread and Jam is tasty, it isn't all there is in the world. I did not realize it at the time but the secondary goal of finding things equally fun becomes really…
这个开篇太棒了。我现在就想读一读。（我以前听说过这本书，但只知道个大概。）补充：天哪！他还写了童书《弗朗西丝的面包加果酱》的文本（我现在才知道，同个角色还有一整套系列）。写得真漂亮。我以前完全不知道。
That's an amazing opening. I'd like to read that now. (I have heard of this book before, but only in outline.) Edit: Oh my word! He wrote the text of the children's book "Bread and Jam for Frances" (and, I now learn, a whole series of others with the same character). That's a lovely bit of writing. I had no idea.
