[Edit this paragraph] Introduction of Tippy

Tippy, a little French girl, is full of legend. His parents are photographers who specialize in African wildlife. Tippy 1990 was born in Namibia, Africa, and grew up day by day in the African jungle. She knew how to deal with animals from an early age and kept them company all day. She makes friends with Abu the elephant, quarrels with baboons, takes a nap with little lions, and sometimes plays with big frogs and chameleons. Animals that brought her pleasure, joy, adventure, fantasy and even physical pain eventually became her best friends. She once said, "Animals are my family" and "Africa is my hometown".

Little Tippy's legendary experience in and out of Africa may be a symbol and metaphor of the relationship between human beings and nature.

[Edit this paragraph] Tippy's self-report

My name is Tippy. I am an African girl. I was born in Namibia ten years ago. Many people ask me if Tippi is the same as Tippi, a dome tent used by Indians. I said they should open the dictionary: my name has two letters "P". Why did my parents give me such a name That's because there is an American actress whose name is Tippy Hederen. She starred in a horror movie called Birds, which was directed by an American named Hitchcock.

I think it is good for parents to choose this name for many reasons. First of all, it is a unique name. Coincidentally, I also think I am different from other girls. Moreover, this name will remind people of Indians, who happen to live in a tent called "Dipi" (although the spelling is different from my name), and they live in the deep mountains and forests like me; The last reason is that the film directed by Mr Hitchcock is called Birds. As for me, I like birds. It's no exaggeration for me to say that I love them very much, because they are like my brothers and sisters. This is not surprising, because I was born and raised in it. African wild animals are my earliest friends, and I know them well. ...

Tippy is just part of my name. To tell the truth, my name is very long. It's Tippy Benjamin O 'Connor de Grey. De Gray is my parents' surname, my father's name is Allen and my mother's name is Sylvie. They are all photographers who specialize in shooting wild animals. I was born in Africa because of this profession they are engaged in. As for adding Benjamin to my full name, it is to thank a friend named Benjamin. My mother lived in this friend's house when I came into this world. At that time, my parents were running around in the jungle, and it was not good to have children in the wild. So when I was born, Benjamin lived with my mother in a village called Venetuk, where there was a hospital.

My name is also Aokangdi, which is the pronunciation of Owambo language used by an aborigine in Namibia, meaning "Meng". Although the name sounds good, it's a bit strange to call your daughter Meng. However, my story begins here. ...

Before I was born, my parents lived in Kalahadi Desert on the border of South Africa, Botswana and Namibia for seven years. During these years, they observed mongoose and Meng, and made movies and photos for them. These naive little creatures cannot be seen anywhere else. In the eyes of mom and dadu (that's what I call dad), baboons and we have become a family. Baboons are wild animals, but it can be said that they raised my parents. I believe that carefree parents are the real happiness. They get along well with baboons in the Kalahadi Desert and can even live there for life. Moreover, my mother wanted to have me born there and make me a baboon girl, just like their little sister, but this idea didn't come true later.

One day, my parents quarreled with the local people because everyone had different ideas. Of course, others had the final say, so mom and most of them were driven out of the Kalahadi desert. Sometimes people are really stupid. ...

I was born a few months later. I have never seen a baboon. It only appears in movies and photos taken by my mother and Dadu, but I am still a member of the baboon family, because my name is Tippy Benjamin O 'Connor and I can talk to animals.

In life, there are happiness and misfortune. Sometimes life is normal. This was the case when we lived in Namibia. We are just worried that we are not used to living habits and have never been unhappy. Sometimes we live happily. It's nice to live there!

After returning to France, I tried to talk to sparrows, dogs, pigeons, cats, cows or horses, but it was useless. I don't know why, but I think it's because Africa is my hometown, not France.

[Edit this paragraph] Tippy's recent situation

Now my home is not far from Pompidou Cultural Center, a famous building in Paris. Tourists are busy here every day. She stood at the window, facing the bustling crowd blankly, but she often missed her animal partners on the African prairie.

Tippy returned to Paris and felt a sense of absurdity about city life. For example, she used to go to school in Paris barefoot. After a long time, she finally took off her shoes and socks, only to be laughed at by the children around her.

Tippy felt lost in Paris. Although she can distinguish various scorpions in Madagascar, she doesn't know Harry Potter, which is popular all over the world. She knows how to deal with the attack of animal baboons, but she doesn't understand what the subway looks like underground. She said: "We never hear music in Africa, and our ears are full of crickets. She used to have elephants as company, but now she has no friends. She thinks that friends in Paris are not iron enough and are easy to betray.

Her father thinks that the flood of traffic in the city, terrorist incidents from the sky, murders, and countless deceptions, temptations and traps are "much more dangerous than nature".

After staying in this city for too long, Tippy told the reporter of German Star Weekly: "Now I have nothing. Sometimes I think I may never talk to animals again. Even before that, I didn't know if I could really talk to animals. If I don't think so, I will always talk to animals. "

[Edit this paragraph] Tippy's Quotations

1, the wildlife world is very complicated.

Don't be afraid, but always be careful.

Animals are never fierce, but more aggressive.

4. Wild animals always have enemies.

5. Animals come from good people.

My wildlife friend is a timely book. After "man and nature" has become the theme of globalization, it is necessary for us to review what we have done and forgotten in the interaction with nature.

A little French girl who is only 10 years old looks at the world with childish eyes. To be sure, no one told her not to hurt those animals before she made friends with them. According to Dr. Freud, human childhood is animalistic. Little Tippy thinks he is an out-and-out small animal, growing up with wild elephants, ostriches, chameleons, zebras, bullfrogs, leopards, lions and baboons. Her friend consciousness comes from nature, just as she thinks she is wild. When her parents took pictures of her beloved friends with a camera, they obviously regarded her as one of the animals.

Walking into Africa and those wild animals, many things are amazing, but they are so vivid in front of your eyes. Elephants as amiable as elders, lions as docile as cats, giraffes as noble as emperors, naughty baboons and lemurs, sensitive antelopes ... If accompanied by pictures, the innocent, innocent and beautiful appearance is heartbreaking, more like asking us adults, why are our friends endowed with such characteristics as "ferocity"? Although the animal world is complicated and animals have aggressive personalities, what does it matter? Little Tippy said that we should communicate with those wild animals and care, understand and respect them with our words, actions and love. She can't tolerate the absurd ways of killing wild animals. She hates many vicious killers: "Some of us humans are so cruel that we have no reason at all, just for fun." These people are all bad people. "Tippy believes that animals come from good people, not bad people. We can say that little Tippy is simple-minded because she is just a child. But when we hear the voice of the whole human consensus coming out like this, and it is so clear and powerful, will you be ashamed of playing cigarettes as a child? Do you also want to send such a voice to every corner of the world?

Tippy's journey is not a romantic story. The 65,438+030 photos are not for curiosity, and certainly not for winning a grand prize. Even "My Wild Animal Friends" is not too much as a children's education book. It is not only children who want to get an education. As we all know, we adults and gentlemen need soul washing more. Tippy said that God would tell her all the questions. She doesn't believe what the adult world will teach her. Maybe too much killing is unbearable for her. Reading Jimmy's paintings and calligraphy makes me feel emotionally displaced and unpredictable, while reading Tippy makes me doubt the truth and belonging of life. At any time, we can run and laugh with our animal friends under a blue sky, just like her, or maybe like human childhood.

My wildlife friend came to China.

Tippi, a little girl from France, told a legendary story about her growing up in wild animals, being able to talk to animals and being good at exchanging feelings with animals with her eyes-My Wild Animal Friends, which was recently included in the library of the same name by Man and Nature magazine and published in Chinese by Yunnan Education Press.

Little Tippy's parents are famous photographers. They shoot wild animals. 1990 After she was born in Namibia, she followed her parents to the desert and jungle in southern Africa, accompanied by baboons and danced with ostriches. The elephant is her brother, the chameleon is her best friend, even the dangerous animal she tries to get close to: the little lion sucks her thumb and sleeps soundly, and the fierce leopard sprinkles urine on her to show intimacy. She realized that "all animals come from the good side" and was saddened by the cruelty of wild animals. When she returned to Paris at the age of 65,438+00, she wrote down all these unforgettable experiences and feelings. These experiences and feelings are full of legends, showing the innocence, innocence, sophistication and maturity of children. More than 30 beautiful pictures of/kloc-0 taken by her parents in time vividly reproduce the scene of harmony between man and nature and between man and animals, which makes this book really beautiful.

After being published in Paris in 2000, My Wild Animal Friends was quickly translated into German, Japanese and English, distributed in 29 countries, and loved by hundreds of millions of young readers and many adult readers, teachers, parents and children educators.

/kloc-Tippy, a 0/2-year-old French girl, chose a thrilling life completely beyond your "urban stereotype" imagination. This is the way she gets along with the world: riding on the soft and warm ostrich's back, letting Mufasa, the little lion, suck her fingers for a nap, and taking a naked bath by the river with a water sprayer with a trunk-this is not a beautiful chapter, but these real pictures come from the photos in my Friends of Wild Animals.

Mr. Alain de Grey, a French photographer, is the father of a 12-year-old girl. He is not crazy. He told me that day that he would always remember the words of an American Indian chief in 1955: Let people be animals! Maybe one day, everything that happens to animals will happen to people. But no matter what happens, we are all sons of the earth.

This concept of advocating nature plays a strong role in the photographer's mind, which makes his daughter Tippy be placed in the wildlife group as soon as she was born in Namibia, Africa. She climbed up the nose of the elephant brother Abu and kissed him. She was lying on the ground, being held for a walk by cheetahs from behind. When she was a baby, she sat on Linda the ostrich's back. "Linda is very kind," said the girl. "She is always afraid of knocking me over and often refuses to move." When she was three or four years old, she walked into the desert naked, and that small pile of tender meat sparkled in the desert sunset, which made people feel really excited.

What is even more shocking is the harmonious relationship between man and nature implied by this child-they can be so harmonious, not hostile to each other, not invading each other, not hurting each other and not killing each other. In the real world, things are far from so affectionate. In the world where people are in absolute strength, people have become accustomed to animals being kept in cages, put on the table and killed by various means. Between us and them, it seems that the relationship between murder and murder will always be. While the animality of animals is suppressed, the animality of human beings expands infinitely.

Poverty makes people ask nature for food. Desire makes people look ferocious.

Maybe only children are pure good people. Tippy said, "Animals are my family" and "My gift is talking to animals". Before children grow up, they seem to have that mysterious connection with animals. Grow up to be a demon-it's all children who cry for a pigeon with a broken wing.

Mr. Feng Zikai is probably the clearest environmentalist. Among his notes about nursing students, the most famous one is The Dead Bear: The hunter went into the mountain to shoot the bear, and the bear hit the key and couldn't sit down. Short-sighted, bear dead, feet holding boulders. There is a bear number three in Shixiaxi. So people who die but don't fall are afraid that stones will hurt their sons. The hunter was moved and stopped hunting for life.

Maybe civilization is the best medicine to save the world. In the material-rich modern society, it has opened our eyes, made a benign recovery, and slowly saw the blind spot. "Environmental protection" has become a theme. Behind it, it carries profound philosophical significance.

Facing the French photographer, I asked him, aren't you afraid that your daughter is in danger in nature? Mr Allen's answer was unexpected. He said, I am not afraid of my little daughter being hurt in wild animals. In fact, rampant traffic in cities, terrorist incidents falling from the sky, murders and countless deceptions, temptations and traps are "much more dangerous than nature."

However, they can't live in "nature" forever. Tippy returned to Paris and felt a sense of absurdity about city life. For example, she used to go to school in Paris barefoot. After a long time, she finally took off her shoes and socks, only to be laughed at by the children around her.

The more civilization evolves, the more we should love nature; But the more civilization evolves, the farther away we have from nature-is this a helpless strange circle?

brief Introduction of the content

☆ "My Wild Animal Friends" sisters

☆ With the vast desert as the background, the birth and growth process of Tippi is further demonstrated from a new angle and a new picture.

This book is the first new photo collection published in China by Alain De Grey, the main photo author of My Wildlife Friend and the father of Tippy, a famous French wildlife photographer. As the companion of My Wild Animal Friends, Angel in the Desert shows Tippi's birth and growth from a broader background with a new angle and a new picture, from which we can appreciate the vast and diverse desert scenery, approach Tippi's wild childhood life, and fully appreciate Tippi's touching scene of loving and staying with his wild animal friends, such as Abu, Jabby the Jaguar, Linda the ostrich, Huapu the lemur and Leon the chameleon. The pictures in this book are not repeated with my wildlife friends, but the special charm of African scenery and the magical style of angel Tippy are particularly rich and attractive. The two books complement each other and form a double-sided wall, which has strong visual impact and psychological induction.
