1996 年,當我們要為新成立的公司取名字的時候,是先找到了英文名稱 LOCUS,我們在一本拉丁文字典裡,看到 locus 有這樣的意思:「A place where something interesting is happening. 一個有些很有意思的事情正在發生的地方。」
後來,在另一本拉丁文字典裡又看到 locus 有這樣的定義:n.)1. right time, right place(適時適地);2. passage in a book (書裡的段落);3. dwelling. (居所),所以我們就決定了用 LOCUS 當公司的英文名稱。
為了尋找和 LOCUS 相對應的中文名稱,我們花了一段時間尋找,最後決定了「大塊」。「大塊」最早見諸於〈莊子〉:「大塊載我以形,勞我以生,佚我以老,息我以死。」也就是「天地」的意思。但更為人熟知的出處應該是李白的詩:「陽春召我以煙景,大塊假我以文章。」〈春夜宴從弟桃花園序〉。
總之,中文「大塊」所代表的「天地」的意思,和英文 LOCUS 很相配。此外,我們也很喜歡白話文裡「大塊」所讓人能想到的:「大塊吃肉,大碗喝酒;大塊蛋糕,大把鮮花;大塊文章,大好人生。」
這樣,綜合起來說,我們希望「大塊」所傳達的訊息是:「這家公司希望能為讀者提供些很有意思的閱讀——讓自己開闊,也好玩的閱讀。」除了這個基本訊息之外,在大塊成立五年的時候,公司的商標底下也多了三個英文字:Future. Adventure. Culture.
Future 是我們希望和讀者一起邁向未來。
Adventure 是我們彼此用熱情和勇氣來相互激勵。
Culture 是我們一起探索文化的各種面向和層次。
以上就是大塊的品牌故事。

My two year old daughter loves this book set. She wants me to read her the “Time for Bed” book every night. The others she reads randomly throughout the day but these are a favorite for her. She loves rabbits and she loves the interactive parts of the book. The books are super cute and good quality.
蠻好玩的,我兒子喜歡
我不用怕孩子露肚子了!超級好用。越洗越軟。又舒服又不會太熱,夏天也可以不穿衣服直接穿這件睡也行
I really love this style of illustration and will probably be buying more from this series!
I will definitely be purchasing the other book in this series, because it's just too funny! Only downside is the ugly sticker on the front of the book that leaves sticky residue when you try to peel it off.
Otherwise, it's a high quality hardcover with gorgeous illustrations and thick, sturdy pages.
