小男人，小男人：童年的故事

四岁的TJ每天都在他热闹的哈莱姆街区与最好的朋友WT和Blinky玩耍，为邻居跑腿。随着他成长为一个有着远大梦想的“小个子”，TJ面临着一个充满成人冒险和现实的世界。鲍德温的独生子女书《小男人，小男人》庆祝并探索了黑人童年的挑战和欢乐。
新版《小男人，小男人》40年来首次面世，保留了法国艺术家约兰·卡扎克（Yoran Cazac）迷人的原始插图，包括鲍德温的侄子特扬·卡雷法·斯马特（Tejan“TJ”Karefa Smart）的前言和他的侄女艾莎·卡雷法·斯马特（Aisha Karefa Smart）的后记，以及两位鲍德温学者的介绍。在这本书中，我们不仅从一个黑人儿童的角度看到了20世纪70年代哈莱姆区的生活，而且对美国最伟大的作家之一的天才有了更全面的欣赏。
Little Man, Little Man: A Story of Childhood
Four-year-old TJ spends his days on his lively Harlem block playing with his best friends WT and Blinky and running errands for neighbors. As he comes of age as a “Little Man” with big dreams, TJ faces a world of grown-up adventures and realities. Baldwin’s only children’s book, Little Man, Little Man celebrates and explores the challenges and joys of black childhood.
Now available for the first time in forty years, this new edition of Little Man, Little Man—which retains the charming original illustrations by French artist Yoran Cazac—includes a foreword by Baldwin’s nephew Tejan “TJ” Karefa-Smart and an afterword by his niece Aisha Karefa-Smart, with an introduction by two Baldwin scholars. In it we not only see life in 1970s Harlem from a black child’s perspective, but we also gain a fuller appreciation of the genius of one of America’s greatest writers.
