When five little men come to visit Earth from Outer Space, they don't like what they see. Finding a planet that is spoiled and neglected, the little men fly away, one by one. Luckily, by the end of this much-loved counting song, the world becomes a better place to visit - and the five little men may even have had something to do with it! All children love this traditional rhyme...(展开全部)

伊迪丝·内斯比特(Edith Nesbit 1858～1924)，这是一个辉煌的名字，她是一位儿童文学作家，大部分作品都发表在上个世纪末和本世纪初，也就是说，距今已有一百年了。但直到今天，她一百年前所写的作品却依然畅销，于世界各地拥有众多的读者。她就宛如儿童文学史上的一颗长尾彗星，其光芒从十九世纪一直横亘到二十世纪的天空。因此，于日本出版的《英美儿童文学》一书中，有评论家甚至不忌溢美谀词之嫌，这样写道：「伊迪丝·内斯比特不仅是英国儿童文学史上第一个黄金时代的巨星，也是二十世纪儿童文学的伟大源泉。」她在自己的作品中，不是把现实中的孩子带入一个幻想的世界，而是把幻想世界的人物带入了孩子们的日常生活，这大大拉近了作品与读者的距离，让孩子们觉得这故事是在述说他们自己身边的故事，而不再是「很久很久以前」的故事，从而使作品拥有了批判现实的力量
