床头一直有这一本书。银色的封面，大黑的书名。书名左下角有作者的肖像。图的中央有一棵茂盛而不知名的树，落叶满地。翻开内页，中英文相照，包括马丁·路德·金的演说辞和文章，以及霍玉莲女士为他写的传记。虽然这是一本后人做的合辑，但我们还是原滋原味地领略了文化差异下翻译的不同感受。我特意从网上下载了马丁·路德·金的《我有一个梦想》原音：“……We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal……”
枕边的书很容易变形。翻阅无数始终没有读完。工作回来，洗刷完毕，倒头就睡，容不得半点的空闲。记得《功夫》中周星驰小时候的梦想是维护世界和平，不由得一笑。仿佛这一切都离自己很遥远。没有战火，没有饥饿，没有贫穷，没有歧视。很多时候，我们都无法做到大爱。我们爱自己，爱身边的朋友和亲人，却很少关注圈外的世界。那里的硝烟弥漫，那里的疾病横行，那里的生活艰苦，那里的社会民不聊生。我们注定是无法体会，也不知从何体会。
寂静的夜里，相互温暖；阳光下漫步，和平的国度中幸福感却很少，烦恼递增。生活的压力，工作的竞争，日益加剧。我们的爱，一直是有限的时间加有限的精力。更多时候我们关注的只是自己本身，民族本身，国家本身。我们没有把爱升华到国家之外，地球之外。我觉得，爱应该是无国界的。
所以我一直比较反感于世界上国家的分界线。原本从太空上看蓝色的星球，让你在神秘中感叹。感叹自己的渺小，包括思想。星空之下，风在吟唱，什么都可以梦想：
我有一个梦想，中国早日实现统一。我想去台湾岛上自由地旅行，在钓鱼岛上钓鱼；
我有一个梦想，森林不再砍伐，河流不再浑浊，沙漠不再迁徙，海洋不再流泪；
我有一个梦想，梦想马丁·路德·金的愿望能早点实现；
我有一个梦想，国家的界线消失。地球的伤痕消失；
我有一个梦想，世界上不再有战争；
我有一个梦想——
梦想我的梦想永远不是梦想。

What better gift can a parent give a child than a vision of a free and just future.This beautiful book is the illustrated text of Dr.Martin Luther King,Jr's speech given in Washington D.C.on August 28,1963.
The text of King's inspirational speech is illustrated by 14 African American artists/illustrators.Each illustration is attractive and deftly illustrates points in Dr.King's speech.Any of the illustrations could well serve as pictures for someone's wall.Every illustration is noteworthy and inspirational.I love the cover illustration by Leo and Diane Dillon.Other illustrations that I am moved by include You Have Been the Veterans of Creative Suffering by Tom Feelings and The Table of Brotherhood by James E.Ransome.
This book would serve well for a method to introduce children to Martin Luther King.Whether as a teacher or parent you choose to read the whole text of the speech or discuss King's life and his importance in American history,may depend on the age of the child.While the recommended ages for reading are 4 to 8,a four year old may not understand the message.Certainly,this book would serve as a tool for older children or even adults to get to know King and his message.
I think that every American should read the text of Dr.Martin Luther King,Jr.'s I have a dream speech.It is as deeply meaningful and powerful today as it was in 1963.What better way to preserve the memory of Martin Luther King's speech than owning a copy of this book either for your children or yourself.This is a truly beautiful book which would be a great and lasting addition to a children's library.
