100個媽媽的夢想 。 100 Mothers' dream

去年，某人在我的 Blog 上留言，請我參與『100個媽媽的夢想』一寫書活動。這書是包括100個居住在世界不同城市的華人母親的夢想，希望藉此可以表揚母親對子女的愛護及關懷。同時，為患病的小朋友及他們的家庭做一點事情，此書本的收入在扣除自資出成本之後將會全數捐予香港願望成真基金(Make-a-Wish Hong Kong)。此基金是為幫助患有重病的兒童達成願望，希望透過「願望成真」的體驗，令他們的人生充滿希望、毅力及歡樂。此書是由一對平常不過擁有兩個小孩子的香港夫婦，栩可爸及栩可媽，策劃的。他們的網誌是 http://msliwing.wordpress.com/

Last year, someone left a message on my blog asking me to participate in this "100 Mothers' dreams" project. This book includes dreams of 100 Chinese mothers living around the globe, that help to show the mother love and caring. At the same time, this book's net profit will be donated to the "Make-a-Wish Hong Kong" funds. The funds is used for helping sick children to make their dreams come true. That allows them to experience what it is like when their dreams come true, and make them feel that there is always hope, strong will and joy in life. This book is published by an ordinary couple that have two wonderful kids. Their own blog is http://msliwing.wordpress.com/

這本書的進度比原先的計劃有所延誤, 因為金融海嘯的影響, 香港消費買書的人大幅減少, 很多出版社都暫停或取消不少出版新書的計劃。幸好, 此書的出版社很欣賞每位媽媽的努力, 決定保留這本有意義的書的出版計劃, 只是出版的時間表會有所延後。現在見到它終於出版了，我很是欣賞這對夫婦的努力。雖然此書的寫作是有一百多位華人母親負責的，但在編輯，與不同媒介聯系等都要花上不少時間，心血與精神。所以在此我想為他們賣賣廣告，若然大家在書店內見到此書的話，不妨買買它來看看，且可以做做善事，多謝多謝！

This book initially was meant to be published much earlier than this, but due to the economic crisis, the consumers' purchasing power got less and therefore many publishing companies have put their projects on hold or even canceled them. Fortunately, the publishing company of this book saw the passion from the hard work of each mother who has participated in this, and had decided to keep this project going, only that there was a delay in getting this onto the project. Now, it finally has been published! I really appreciate this couple's hard work too. Though this book is written by 100 mothers around the world, yet the work of putting things together, communicating with different channels of people, it really required a lot of time, effort and hard work. And therefore, I would like to use this opportunity to promote this book a bit here. If you get around seeing this book on one of the book shelves in the store, please feel free to buy it, since at the same time, you get to help those children who are in need. Thank you!
