日本國民作家宮澤賢治，必讀經典！衝擊力滿點的色彩與構圖，重新詮釋這趟金光閃閃的不思議旅程。一個星期六的晚上，一郎收到了一張奇怪的明信片。山貓邀請他去幫忙一場困難的審判，數以千計的橡實，爭吵著誰才是最棒的？山貓、橡實、蘑菇馬車……森林裡即將展開的審判大會，一郎將如何平息這場糾紛？《橡實與山貓》是宮澤賢治生前唯一出版的一本童話集中的第一篇。幽默的故事包裹著深刻的訊息，透過小學生一郎的判決，讓讀者反思所謂的「比較」究竟意義何在？何謂最好？所謂好的標準是什麼？故事情節既奇幻又有趣，也充滿宮澤賢治式的哲思。本書繪者為日本重量級繪本插畫家田島征三，他以誇張的構圖、強而有力的畫面、強烈的色彩，為這部作品創造了一個氣力萬鈞的全新形象。系列特色【宮澤賢治的繪本散策】系列，是嚴選自日本三起商行（ミキハウス）於1987年開始推出的宮澤賢治繪本系列。自第一本《要求很多的餐廳》起，至今持續超過三十年，陸續推出了三十多本宮澤賢治繪本。集結日本三十多位人氣插畫家，陣容空前華麗，本本精采！堪稱是最具規模的宮澤繪本出版計畫。本次由聯經出版隆重推出中文版，首波嚴選十本，精選台灣讀者耳熟能詳的作品：《橡實與山貓》、《貓的事務所》、《拉大提琴的果許》、《要求很多的餐廳》、《夜鶯之星》、《銀杏的果實》等，也挑選較少被引介，但非常值得一讀的作品：《鹿舞的起源》、《虔十公園林》、《歐茲貝爾與象》、《狼森、笊森和盜森》等。參與的插畫家，包含荒井良二、及川賢治、片山健、田島征三、mirocomachiko等，以不同的風格，呈現宮澤賢治的童話世界。全套翻譯由兒童文學工作者、宮澤賢治頭號粉絲林真美擔任，全新譯本，無刪減文本，體會原汁原味的宮澤文學。希望藉由這套書的出版，傳遞宮澤賢治跨越百年的訊息與理想，讓台灣讀者從文字、圖像與想像，再一次全面感受宮澤賢治作品的魅力。
