四方眼的熊貓

書林小編真心推薦！給愛看電視和電腦的孩子，歡樂童年生活，千萬別只是當一隻四方眼的趴趴熊！

親愛的熊貓，別再黏在電視機和電腦螢幕前面了！
難道你沒發現你的眼睛不再是可愛的圓圓亮亮眼嗎？
如果再繼續整天看電視，熊貓又圓又亮的眼睛就會變成「四方形」啦！
也許你該想想除了看電視和電腦，你還可以做什麼？
你可以和朋友去玩，可以去圖書館和朋友一起分享共讀，有好多好多事都因為你只看電視而錯過了！
親愛的，快點離開電視機前面，走出戶外吧！

As you can probably guess from the title, Square Eyes features a group of characters (a rather cute panda and his animal friends) who spend way too much time sitting in front of the television. The story illustrated by Scott Tulloch, encourage Panda and his friends to take some time away from the television to exercise and find other fun things to do like reading, playing games, visiting the library and using their imagination.
Craig Smith

Born in Clyde, central Otago, New Zealand in 1972, Craig Smith grew up living in the scenic South Island tourist town of Queenstown with his mother and five siblings. Craig has worked at a variety of jobs, from cook to ski instructor.

As a child he remembers telling his mother, 'When I grow up, I'm going to become a musician.' Her answer? 'You can't do both!' She was right. Although he spends much of his time writing songs for an adult audience, Craig couldn't escape his childish side and was soon writing songs 'for the less mature'.

In late 2007 Craig released his first kids' album Not Just For Kids. The first track from this album—'The Wonky Donkey'—won the APRA NZ Children’s Song of the Year Award in 2008 and ended up making the top 25 songs in the children’s section of the ISC International Songwriting Contest—the world’s biggest song competition.

In 2009 The Wonky Donkey was published as a book with hilarious illustrations by Craig’s friend Katz Cowley. This talented duo also released another book and song project—Willbee the Bumblebee.
 
Craig now lives in Christchurch, New Zealand and when he is not working on his children's music/books, he works as an itinerant musician, playing in restaurants and pubs, at market days and festivals, playing music for young and old.
