The RUN AWAY BUNNY

Once there was a little bunny who wanted to run away.
So he said to his mother, “I am running away.”
“If you run away,” said his mother, “I will run after you.
For you are my little bunny.”

“If you run after me,” said the little bunny,
“I will become a fish in a trout stream and I will swim away from you.”

“If you become a fish in a trout stream,” said his mother,
“I will become a fisherman and I will fish for you.”

“If you become a fisherman,” said the little bunny,
“I will become a rock on the mountain, high above you.”

“If you become a rock on the mountain high above me,”
Said his mother, “I will be a mountain climber,
And I will climb to where you are.”

“If you become a mountain climber,” said the little bunny,
“I will be a crocus in a hidden garden.”

“If you become a crocus in a hidden garden,” said his mother,
“I will be a gardener. And I will find you.”

“If you are a gardener and find me,” said the little bunny,
“I will be a bird and fly away from you.”

“If you become a bird and fly away from me,” said his mother,
“I will be a tree that you come home to.”

“If you become a tree,” said the little bunny,
“I will become a little sailboat, and I will sail away from you.”

“If you become a sailboat and sail away from me,” said his mother,
“I will become the wind and blow you where I want you to go.”

“If you become the wind and blow me,” said the little bunny,
“I will join a circus and fly away on a flying trapeze.”

“If you go flying on a flying trapeze,” said his mother,
“I will be a tightrope walker, and I will walk across the air to you.”

“If you become a tightrope walker and walk across the air,” said the bunny,
“I will become a little boy and run into a house.”

“If you become a little boy and run into a house,” and the mother bunny,
“I will become your mother and catch you in my arms and hug you.”

“Shucks,” said the bunny, “I might just as well stay where I am and be your little bunny.”

And so he did. “Have a carrot,” said the mother bunny.

GUESS HOW MUCH I LOVE YOU


Little Nutbrown Hare, who was going to bed, held on tight to Big Nutbrown Hare’s very long ears.

He wanted to be sure that Big Nutbrown Hare was listening.
“Guess how much I love you,” he said.
“Oh, I don’t think I could guess that,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.

“This much,” said little Nutbrown Hare, stretching out his arms as wide as they could go.

Big Nutbrown Hare had ever longer arms. “But I love you this much,” he said.
Hmm, that is a lot, thought Little Nutbrown Hare.

“I love you as high as I can reach,” said Little Nutbrown Hare.

“I love you as high as I can reach,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.
That is very high, thought Little Nutbrown Hare. I will I had arms like that.

Then Little Nutbrown Hare had a good idea. He tumbled upside down and reached up the tree trunk with his feet.
“I love you all the away up to my toes!” he said.

“And I love you all the way up to your toes,” said Big Nutbrown Hare, swinging him up over his head.

“I love you as high as I can hop!” laughed Little Nutbrown Hare, bouncing up and down.

“But I love you as high as I can hop,” smiled Big Nutbrown Hare – and he hopped so high that his ears touched the branches above.
That’s good hopping, thought Little Nutbrown Hare. I wish I could hop like that.

“I love you all the way down the lane as far as the river,” cried Little Nutbrown Hare.
“I love you across the river and over the hills,” said Big Nutbrown Hare.

That’s very far, thought Little Nutbrown Hare.
He was almost too sleepy to think anymore.
Then he looked beyond the thorn bushes, out into the big dark night. Nothing could be farter than the sky.

“I lover you right up to the moon,” he said, and closed his eyes.
“Oh, that’s far,” said Big Nutbrown Hare. “That is very, very far.”

Then he lay down close by and whispered with a smile, “I love you right up to the moon – and back.”

THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR


THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR

In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf.
One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and – out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.

He started to look for some food.

On Monday he ate through one apple. But he was still hungry.

On Tuesday he ate through two pears, but he was still hungry.

On Wednesday he ate through three plums, but he was still hungry.

On Thursday he ate through four strawberries, but he was still hungry.

On Friday he ate through five oranges, but he was still hungry.

On Saturday he ate through one piece of chocolate cake, one ice-cream cone, one pickle, one slice of Swiss cheese, one slice of salami, one lollipop, one piece of cherry pie, one sausage, one cupcake, and one slice of watermelon.

The next day was Sunday again. The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf, and after that he felt much better.

Now he wasn’t hungry and more – and he wasn’t a little caterpillar any more. He was a big, fat caterpillar.

He built a small house, called a cocoon, around himself. He stayed inside for more than two weeks. Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out and ------

He was a beautiful butterfly!

Rosie's Walk


By Pat Hutchins

Rosie the hen went for a walk
across the yard
around the pond
over the haystack
past the mill
through the fence
under the beehives
and
got back
in time
for dinner.

Owl Babies


Once there were three baby owls: Sarah and Percy and Bill.
They lived in a hole in the trunk of a tree
with their Owl Mother.
The hole had twigs and
leaves and owl feathers in it.
It was their house.

One night they woke up and
their Owl Mother was GONE.

"Where's Mommy?" asked Sarah.
"Oh my goodness!" said Percy.
"I want my mommy!" said Bill.

The baby owls thought
(all owls think a lot) ━
"I think she's gone hunting," said Sarah.
"To get us our food!" said Percy.
"I want my mommy!" said Bill.

But their Owl Mother didn't come.

The baby owls came out of
Their house, and they sat
On the tree and waited.
A big branch for Sarah,
A small branch for Percy,
and an old piece of ivy for Bill.

"She'll be back," said Sarah.
"Back soon!" said Percy.
"I want my mommy!" said Bill.

It was dark in the woods and
they had to be brave, for things
moved all around them.

"She'll bring us mice and
things that are nice," said Sarah.
"I suppose so!" said Percy.
"I want my mommy!" said Bill.

They sat and they thought
(all owls think a lot) ━
"I think we should all
sit on my branch," said Sarah.

And they did,
all three together.

"Suppose she got lost," said Sarah,
"Or a fox got her!" said Percy.
"I want my mommy!" said Bill.

And the baby owls closed
their owl eyes and wished their
Owl Mother would come.

AND SHE CAME.

Soft and silent, she swooped
through the trees
to Sarah and Percy
and Bill.

"Mommy!" they cried,
and they flapped and they danced,
and they bounced up and down
on their branch.

"WHAT'S ALL THE FUSS?"
their Owl Mother asked.
"You knew I'd come back."

The baby owls thought
(all owls think a lot) ━
"I knew it," said Sarah.
"And I knew it" said Percy.
"I love my mommy!" said Bill.

When Sophie Gets Angry – Really, Really Angry----


Sophie was busy playing when …
…her sister grabbed gorilla.

“No!” said Sophie.
“Yes!” said her mother.
“It is her turn now, Sophie.”
As her sister snatched Gorilla away …
…Sophie fell over the truck.

Oh, is Sophie ever angry now!

She kicks. She screams. She wants to smash the world to smithereens. SMASH

She roars a red, red roar.ROAR
Sophie is a volcano, ready to explode.
And when Sophie gets angry – really, really angry …   EXPLORDE

PABAM!…She runs!
She runs and runs and runs until she can’t run anymore.

Then, for a little while, she cries.

Now she sees the rocks, the trees and ferns. She hears a bird.TWEET

She comes to the old beech tree. She climbs.

She feels the breeze blow her hair. She watches the water and the waves.

The wide world comforts her.

Sophie feels better now. she climbs back down …

… and heads for home.

The house is warm and smells good. Everyone is glad she’s home.

EVERYTHING’S BACK TOGETHER AGAIN

And Sophie isn’t angry anymore

Five Minutes’ Peace by Jill Murphy


The children were having breakfast.
This was not a pleasant sight.

Mrs. Large took a tray from the cupboard.
She set it with a teapot, a milk jug, her
favorite cup and saucer, a plate of
marmalade toast and a leftover cake
from yesterday. She stuffed the morning
paper into her pocket and sneaked off
toward the door.

“Where are you going with tray, Mom?” asked Laura.
“To the bathroom,” said Mrs. Large.
“Why?” asked the other two children.
“Because I want five minutes’ peace from all of you,” said Mrs. Large.
“That’s why.”

“Can we come?” asked Lester as they trailed up the stairs behind her.
“No,” said Mrs. Large, “you can’t.”
“What shall we do then?” asked Laura.
“You can play,” said Mrs. Large. “Downstairs. By yourselves. And keep an eye on the baby.”
“I’m not a baby,” muttered the little one.

Mrs. Large ran a deep, hot bath.
She emptied half a bottle of bubble bath into the water, plunked on her shower cap and got in.
She poured herself a cup of tea and lay back with her eyes closed.
It was heaven.

“Can I play you my tune?” asked Lester.
Mrs. Large opened one eye. “Must you?” she asked.
“I’ve been practicing,” said Lester, “You told me to. Can I? Please, just for one minute.”
“Go on then,” sighed Mrs. Large.
So Lester played. He played “Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star” three and a half times.

In came Laura. “Can I read you a page from my reading book?” she asked.
“No, Laura,” said Mrs. Large. “Go on, all of you, off downstairs.”
“You let Lester play his tune,” said Laura.
“I heard. You like him better than me. It’s not fair.”
“Oh, don’t be silly, Laura,” said Mrs. Large
“Go on then. Just one page.”
So Laura read. She read four and a half pages of “Little Red Riding Hood.”

In came the little one with a trunkful of toys.
“For you!” he beamed, flinging them all into the bath water.
“Thank you, dear,” said Mrs. Large weakly.

“Can I see the cartoons in the paper?” asked Laura.
“Can I have the cake?” asked Lester.
“Can I get in with you?” asked the little one.
Mrs. Large groaned.

In the end they all got in. The little one was in such a hurry that he forget to take off his pajamas.

Mrs. Large got out. She dried herself, put on her bathrobe and headed for the door.
“Where are you going now, Mom?” asked Laura.
“To the kitchen,” said Mrs. Large.
“Why?” asked Lester.
“Because I want five minutes’ peace from all of you,” said Mrs. Large. “That’s why.”

And off she went downstairs, where she had three minutes and forty-five seconds of peace before they all came to join her.

Mr. Gumpy’s Outing


Mr. Gumpy’s Outing
by John Burningham

This is Mr. Gumpy.

Mr. Gumpy owned a boat and his house was by a river.

One day Mr. Gumpy went out in his boat.
“May we come with you?” said the children.
“Yes,” said Mr. Gumpy,
“if you don’t squabble.”

“Can I come along, Mr. Gumpy?” said the rabbit.
“Yes, but don’t hop about.”

“I’d like a ride,” said the cat.
“Very well,” said Mr. Gumpy.
“But you’re not to chase the rabbit.”

“Will you take me with you?” said the dog.
“Yes,” said Mr. Gumpy.
“But don’t tease the cat.”

“May I come, please, Mr. Gumpy?” said the pig.
“Very well, but don’t muck about.”

“Have you a place for me?” said the sheep.
“Yes, but don’t keep bleating.”

“Can we come too?” said the chickens.
“Yes, but don’t flap,” said Mr. Gumpy.

“Can you make room for me?” said the calf.
“Yes, if you don’t trample about.”

“May I join you, Mr. Gumpy?” said the goat.
“Very well, but don’t kick.”

For a little while they all went along happily but then…
The goat kicked
The calf trampled
The chickens flapped
The sheep bleated
The pig mucked about
The dog teased the cat
The cat chase the rabbit
The rabbit hopped
The children squabbled
The boat tipped…
and into the water they fell.

Then Mr. Gumpy and the goat and the calf and the chickens and the sheep and the pig and the dog and the cat and the rabbit and the children all swam t the bank and climbed out to dry in the hot sun.
“We’ll walk home across the fields,” said Mr. Gumpy.
“It’s time for tea.”

“Goodbye,” said Mr. Gumpy.
“Come for a ride another day.”

The Napping House

By Audrey Wood and Don Wood

For Maegerine Thompson Brewer

There is house,
a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And in that house
there is bed,
a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And on that bed
there is a granny,
a snoring granny
on a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And on thatgranny
there ia child,
a dreaming child
on a snoring granny
on a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And on that child
there is a dog,
a dozing dog
on a dreaming child
on a snoring granny
on a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And on that dog
there is a cat,
a snoozing cat
on a dozing dog
on a dreaming child
on a snoring granny
on a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And on that cat
there ia mouse,
a slumbering mouse
on asnoozing cat
on a dozing dog
on a dreaming child
on a snoring granny
on a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

And on that mouse
there is a flea...

Can it be?
A wakeful flea
on a slumbering mouse
on asnoozing cat
on a dozing dog
on a dreaming child
on a snoring granny
on a cozy bed
in a napping house,
where everyone is sleeping.

A wakeful flea
who bites the mouse,

who scares the cat,

who claws the dog,

who thumps the child,

who bumps the granny,

who breaks the bed,

in a napping house
where no one now is sleeping.

Swimmy
A happy school of little fish lived in a corner of the sea somewhere.They were all red.Only one of themwas as black as a mussel shell.He swam faster than his brothers and sisters.His name was Swimmy.
One bad day a tuna fish,swift ,fierece and very hungry,came darting through the waves.In one gulp he swallowed all
the little red fish.Only Swimmy escaped.
He swam away in the deep wet world.He was scared ,lonely and very sad.
But the sea was full of wonderful creatures,and as he swam from marvel to marvel Swimmy was happyagain.
He saw a medusa made of ranibow jelly.
a lobster ,who walked about like a water-moving machine...
strange fish,pulled by an invisibel thread...
a forest of seaweeds growing from sugar-candy rocks....
an eelwhose tail was almost too far away to remember...
and sea anemones,who looked like pink palm trees swaying in the wind.
Then ,hidden in the dark shade of rocks and weeds,he saw a school of little fish ,just like his own.
"let's go and swim and play and SEE things !"he said happily.
"We can't ,"sid the little red fish ."the big fish will eat us all."
"But you can't just lie there,"said Swimmy."We must THINK of smomething."
Swimmy thought and thought and thought .
Then suddenly he said,"I have it !"
"We are going to swim all together like the biggest fish in the sea!"
He taught them to swim close together ,each in his own place ,
and when they had learned to swim like one giant fish ,he said,"I'll be the eye."
And so they swam in the cool morning water and in the midday sun and chased the big fish away.

How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World


How to Make an Apple Pie and See the World
By Marjorie Priceman

          Making an apple pie is really very easy. First, get all the ingredients at the market. Mix the well, bake, and serve.
   Unless, of course, the market is closed.
   
   In that case, go home and pack a suitcase. Take your shopping list and some walking shoes. Then catch a steamship bound for Europe. Use the six days on board to brush up on your Italian.

      If you time it right, you'll arrive in Italy at harvest time. Find a farm deep in the countryside. Gather some superb semolina wheat. An armful or two will do.
   
    Then hop a train to France and locate a chicken.
    French chickens lay elegant eggs-and you want only the finest ingredients for your pie. Coax the chicken to give you an egg. Better yet, bring the chicken with you. There's less chance of breaking the egg that way. Get to Sri Lanka any way you can.
   
   You can't miss it. Sri Lanka is a pear-shaped island in the Indian Ocean. The best cinnamon in the world is made there from the bark of the native kurundu tree and peel off some bark. If a leopard is napping beneath the tree, be very quiet.

   Hitch a ride to England. Make the acquaintance of a cow. You'll know she's an English cow from her good manners and charming accent. Ask if you can borrow a cup or two of milk. Even better, bring the whole cow with you for the freshest possible results.
   Stow away on a banana boat headed to Jamaica. On your way there, you can pick up some salt. Fill a jar with salty sea water.
   
   When the boat docks in Jamaica, walk to the nearest sugar plantation. Introduce yourself to everyone. Tell them about the pie you're making. Then go into the fields and cit a few stalks of sugar cane.

    Better fly home. You don't want the ingredients to spoil.
   
    Wait a minute. Aren't you forgetting something? WHAT ABOUT THE APPLES? Have the pilot drop you off in Vermont.
   
   You won't have to go far to find an apple orchard. Pick eight rosy apples from the top of the tree. Give one to the chicken, one to the cow, and eat one yourself. That leaves five for the pie. Then hurry home.
   
   Now all you have to do is mill the wheat into flour, grind the kurundu bark into cinnamon, evaporate the seawater from the salt, boil the sugar cane, persuade the chicken to lay an egg, milk the cow, churn the milk into butter, slice the apples, mix the ingredients, and bake the pie. While the pie is cooling, invite some friends over to share it with you.
   
Remember that apple pie is delicious topped with vanilla ice cream, which you can get at the market. But if it happens to be closed...
    YOU CAN EAT IT PLAIN!

Sophie’s Masterpiece      A Spider’s Tale

Sophie was no ordinary house spider

Sophie was an artist.

She spun webs more wondrous than anyone had ever seen. Her playmates called her incredible. Her mama was proud.

Someday, they said, she’s going to spin a masterpiece.

When Sophie arrived at that age when a young spider must strike out on her own, she moved to Beekman’s Boardinghouse.

The first thing she did was look around. She saw dull green walls, faded rugs, and old window shades. The place cried out for her talents.
Sophie set to work.. Her first project was to weave a web of curtains for Beekman’s front parlor.
Day after day she whizzed along, blending a golden thread of sun into her silk.

Then one day the landlady noticed her and screamed, “I’ll have no spider in my parlor!” She swatted at Sophie with a dust rag.
Sophie knew when she wasn’t wanted. She scampered across the wall and up the stairs into the tugboat captain’s closet.

When she finally settled down, she looked around and saw nothing but gray. Gray shirts. Gray pants. Gray sweaters.
The captain needs a new suit, Sophie decided. Something bright. Blue. Like sky. She began to spin patiently. A sleeve. A collar.
One day the tugboat captain caught Sophie at work.
He screeched, “A spider!”
Then he climbed onto the windowsill and out to the roof.
Sophie did not want anyone falling off the roof on her account. She scuttled out of the closet, down the hall, and into the cook’s bedroom slipper.

Cook’s bedroom slippers were patched and dirty.
I’ll spin Cook a new pair, Sophie thought. After I rest a bit.
No sooner had Sophie snuggled into the toe, than she was being flung to the floor.
Was it an earthquake?
No.
It was Cook who had shaken Sophie out. “Yuck! “ scowled Cook.
“Look at that ugly, disgusting spider.”
Sophie’s feelings were hurt. With great dignity she journeyed across the rug and under Cook’s door. She made the long, long climb up the steep stairs to the third floor where a young woman lived. Wearily Sophie slipped into the young woman’s knitting basket and fell asleep.

By this time, many spider years had passed. Sophie was older. She only had energy to spin a few small things for herself…a tiny rose-patterned case for her pillow, eight colorful socks to keep her legs warm.
But mostly she slept.

Then one day the young woman discovered Sophie.
Oh, no, thought Sophie, close to tears. She knew she did not have the strength for any more journeys.
But the young woman did not swat at Sophie with a dust rag.
She did not climb on the roof.
She did not say that Sophie was ugly.
She simply smiled.

And without disturbing Sophie in the least, the young woman picked up her needle and yarn.
Sophie watched as the young woman knitted, day after day.
“Booties!” cried Sophie.
The young woman was going to have a baby.
After the booties were finished, the young woman knitted a baby sweater.
Then the yarn was gone.
The young woman did not have enough money to buy yarn for a baby blanket.
“Never mind.” the landlady told her. “There’s an old brown quilt in the hall closet. Your baby can use that.”
Sophie had seen that quilt. It was scratchy and drab. Not fit for a baby.

Sophie knew the answer. She would have to spin a blanket herself.
In her younger days, this would not have been a problem. But Sophie had grown frail and weak. The baby was due any day. Could Sophie complete the blanket in time?
She climbed out of the yarn basket.
She traveled to the wide windowsill.
Strands of moonlight fell into the room. Excellent! she thought. I’ll weave those strands into the baby’s blanket. Some starlight, too.
Sophie began. As she spun, new ideas came to her. She worked them into the blanket … snippets of fragrant pine … wisps of night … old lullabies … playful snowflakes…

Sophie spun without blinking.
Or eating.
Or sleeping.
She was never more exhausted. Or determined.
On and on she spun.

She was down to the farthest corner of the blanket when she heard the cry of the young woman’s newborn baby. And there, on that farthest corner, is where Sophie wove into the blanket her very own heart.

That night as the young woman was about to cover her infant with the landlady’s quilt, something on the windowsill caught her eye.
It was a blanket, so soft, so beautiful as to be fit for a prince.
The young woman knew this was no ordinary blanket.
She placed it with love and wonderment around her sleeping baby.
And went to sleep herself with her hand upon the little spider’s last spinning.
Sophie’s masterpiece.

Sylvester and the Magic Pebble 驴小弟变石头


Sylvester and the Magic Pebble

by William Steig



Sylvester Duncan lived with his mother and father at Acorn Road in Oatsdale. One of his hobbies was collecting pebbles of unusual shape and color.

On a rainy Saturday during vacation he found a quite extraordinary one. It was flaming red, shiny, and perfectly round, like a marble. As he was studying this remarkable pebble, he began toshiver, probably from excitement, and the rain felt cold on his back, “I wish it would stop raining,” he said.

To his great surprise the rain stopped. It didn’t stop gradually as rains usually do, it CEASED. The drops vanished on the way down, the clouds disappeared, everything was dry, and the sun was shining as if rain had never existed.

In all his young life Sylvester had never had a wish gratified so quickly. It struck him that magic must be at work, and he guessed that the magic must be in the remarkable-looking red pebble.(where indeed it was.) to make a test, he put the pebble on the ground and said, “I wish it would rain again.” Nothing happened. But when he said the same thing holding the pebble in his hoof, the sky turned black, there was lightning and a clap of thunder, and the rain came shooting down.

“What a lucky day this is!” thought Sylvester. “From now on I can have anything I want. My father and mother can have anything they want. My relatives, my friends, and anybody at all can have everything any body wants!”

He wished the sunshine back in the sky, and he wished a wart on his left hind fetlock would disappear, and it did, and he started home, eager to amaze his father and mother with his magic pebble. He could hardly wait to see their faces. Maybe they wouldn’t even believe him at first.

As he was crossing Strawberry Hill, thinking of some of the many, many things he could wish for, he was startled to see a mean, hungry lion looking right at him from behind some tall grass. He was frightened. If he hadn’t been so frightened, he could have made the lion disappear, or he could have wished himself safe at home with his father and mother.







He could have wished the lion would turn into a butterfly or a daisy or a gnat. He could have wished many things, but he panicked and couldn’t t think carefully.

“I wish I were a rock,” he said, and he became a rock.

The lion came bounding over, sniffed the rock a hundred times, walked around and around it, and went away confused, perplexed, puzzled, and bewildered. “I saw that little donkey as clear as day. Maybe I’m going crazy,” he muttered.

And there was Sylvester, a rock on Strawberry Hill, with the magic pebble lying right beside him on the ground, and he was unable to pick it up. “Oh, how I wish I were myself again,” he thought, but nothing happened. He had to be touching the pebble to make the magic work, but there was nothing he could do about it.

His thoughts began to race like mad. He was scared and worried. Being helpless, he felt hopeless. He imagined all the possibilities, and eventually he realized that his only chance of becoming himself again was for someone to find the red pebble and to wish that the rock next to it would be a donkey. Someone would surely find the red pebble—it was so bright and shiny—but what on earth would make them wish that a rock were a donkey? The chance was one in a billion at best.

Sylvester fell asleep. What else could he do? Night came with many stars.

Meanwhile, back at home, Mr. and Mrs. Duncan paced the floor, frantic with worry. Sylvester had never come home later than dinner time. Where could he be? They stayed up all night wondering what had happened, expecting that Sylvester would surely turn up by morning. But he didn’t, of course. Mrs. Duncan cried a lot and MR. Duncan did his best to soothe her. Both longed to have their dear son with them.

“I will never scold Sylvester again as long as I live,” said Mrs. Duncan, “no matter what he does.”

At dawn, they went about inquiring of all the neighbors.

They talked to all the children—the puppies, the kittens, the colts, the piglets. No one had seen Sylvester since the day before yesterday.

They went to police. The police could not find their child.



All the dogs in Oatsdale went searching for him. They sniffed behind every rock and tree and blade of grass, into every nook and gully of the neighborhood and beyond, but found not a scent of him. They sniffed the rock on Strawberry Hill, but it smelled like a rock. It didn’t smell like Sylvester.

After a month of searching the same places over and over again, and inquiring of the same animals over and over again, Mr. and Mrs. Duncan no longer knew what to do. They concluded that something dreadful must have happened and that they would probably never see their son again. (though all the time he was less than a mile away.)

They tried their best to be happy, to go about their usual ways. But their usual ways included Sylvester and they were always reminded of him. They were miserable. Life had no meaning for them any more.

Night followed day and day followed night over and over again. Sylvester on the hill woke up less and less often. When he was awake, he was only hopeless and unhappy.

He felt he would be a rock forever and he tired to get used to it, he went into an endless sleep. The days grew colder. Fall come with the leaves changing color. Then the leaves fell and the grass bent to the ground.

Then it was winter. The winds blew this way and that. It snowed. Mostly, the animals stayed indoors, living on the food they had stored up.

One day a wolf sat on the rock that was Sylvester and howled and howled because he was hungry.

Then the snows melted. The earth warmed up in the spring sun and things budded

Leaves were on the trees again. Flowers showed their young faces.

One day in may, Mr. Duncan insisted that his wife go with him on a picnic. “Let’s cheer up,” he said. “let us try to live again and be happy even though Sylvester, our angle, is no longer with us.” They went to Strawberry Hill.

Mrs. Duncan sat down on the rock. The warmth of his own mother sitting on him woke Sylvester up from his deep winter sleep. How he wanted to shout, “Mother! Father! It’s me, Sylvester, I’m right here!” but he couldn’t talk. He had no voice. He was stone-dumb.





Mr. Duncan walked aimlessly about while Mrs. Duncan set out the picnic food on the rock—alfalfa sandwiches, pickled oats, sassafras salad, timothy compote. Suddenly Mr. Duncan saw the red pebble. “what a fantastic pebble!” he exclaimed. “Sylvester would haveloved it for his collection.” He put the pebble on the rock.

They sat down to eat. Sylvester was now as wide awake as a donkey that was a rock could possibly be. Mrs. Duncan felt some mysterious excitement.” You know, Father,” she said suddenly, “I have the strangest feeling that our dear Sylvester is still alive and not far away.”

“I am, I am!” Sylvester wanted to shout, but he couldn’t. if only he had realized that the pebble resting on his back was the magic pebble!

“Oh, how I wish he were here with us on this lovely May day,” said Mrs. Duncan. Mr. Duncan looked sadly at the ground. “Don’t you wish it too, Father?” she said. He looked at her as if to say,” How can you ask such a question?”

Mr. and Mrs. Duncan looked at each other with great sorrow.

“Iwish I were myself again, I wish I were my real self again!” thought Sylvester.

And in less than an instant, he was!

You can imagine the scene that followed—the embraces, the kisses, the questions, the answers, the loving looks, and the fond exclamations!

When they had eventually calmed down a bit, and had gotten home, Mr. Duncan put the magic pebble in an iron safe. Some day they might want to use it, but really, for now, what more could they wish for? They all had all that they wanted.

Seven blind mice《七只瞎老鼠》


Seven blind mice



One day seven blind mice were surprised

to find a strange Something by their pond.
”What is it?”they cried ,

and they all ran home.

On Monday,

Red Mouse went first to find out.
“It’s a pillar,”he said.
No one believe him.

On Tuesday,

Green Mouse set out.
He was the second to go.
“It’s a snake,”he said.


“No”

said Yellow Mouse on Wednesday.
“It’s a spear.”
He was the third in turn.

The fourth was Purple Mouse.
He went on Thursday.
It’s a great cliff,”he said.

Orange Mouse went on Friday,

the fifth to go.
It’s a Fan!

”he cried.”

”I felt it move.”

The sixth to go was Blue Mouse.
He went on Saturday and said,

”It’s nothing but a rope.”



But the others didn’t agree.
They began to argue.
“A snake!”

“A rope!”

“A fan!”

“A cliff!”

Until on Sunday,White Mouse,

the seventh mouse, went to the pond.

When she came upon the Something,
she ran up one side,and she ran down the other.
She ran across the top and from end to end.


“Ah,”said White Mouse.
”Now,I see.The Something is

as sturdy as a pillar,
supple as a snake,
wide as a cliff,
sharp as a spear,
breeze as a fan,
stringy as a rope,
but altogether the Something is…

an elephant.”


And when the other mice

ran up one side and down the other,

across the Something from end to end,

they agreed.
Now they saw,too.


The Mouse Moral:
Knowing in part may make a fine tale,
but wisdom comes from seeing the whole.

《大熊抱抱》(Big Bear Hug)


Big Bear Hug --- by Nicholas Oldland

There once was a bear so filled with love and happiness that whenever he roamed the forest and came across another living thing, he would give it a hug.

Everywhere he wandered,the bear shared his love hug by hug.

He even hugged creatures that bears have been known to eat. This bear could meet the roundest little rabbit, and he would just stop, smile and give it a great big hug.

No animal was too big… Toos mall… Too smelly… Or too scary to hug.

But what this bear loved to hug most were the trees.

The bear never met a tree he did not like. Big trees… Little trees…

Apple trees… Pear trees…Peach trees. This bear hugged them all.

One day while the bear was trying to hug a beaver and a tree at the same time, he noticed a man with an axe walking into the forest.

The bear followed the man until he stopped at one of the tallest, oldest and most beautiful trees in the forest. The man spent so much time looking at this magnificent tree that the bear thought he must love trees, too.

But to the bear’s horror, the man started to chop the tree down.
For the first time in his life, the bear didn’t feel like hugging at all.

Then, just as he was about to sink his teeth into the man, the bear stopped.
He realized that no matter how angry he was, he simply could not eat the man. It just wasn’t in hisnature. The bear sighed. And then he decided to do what he did best.

He gave the man a HUG!

The man was not used to getting real big bear bugs, so once the bear let go, the man dropped his axe and ran far, far away.

And do you know what the bear did next?

The bear smiled and gave the tree a great big hug.


The tree fell muchbetter.

《亲爱的小鱼》


Dear little fish, I love you so
  I’ll feed you bread so you will grow.
  Each day, I’ll give you one sweet kiss
  And promise you I’ll never miss!
  But on the day , my dear little fish,
  You grow too big for your small dish.
  I will take you to the sea,
  And in one move, I’ll let you free.
  How you’ll be so glad to go,
  But dear little fish, I’ll miss you so.
  I will wait all through the day
  To see if you turn’ round this way.
  And I will wait all trough the night,
  To see if you come back in sight.
  Oh! I will throw my only hat
  To see if you will bring it back
  And the first joy that I will see,
  Is when you bring it home to me.
  Your back will be my favourite boat,
  And together we will sail and float.
  Over the river and cross’ the sea,
  To a small island with a palm tree.
  There we will both live and play,
  “Catch the hat” by night and day. And I will know your love for me
  For you came home when I set you free.

A Picture for Harold’s room


A Picture for Harold’s room



“I want a picture to put on my wall,” said Harold.



He drew a house with his purple crayon.



More houses made a little town.

It was far away.



The town had woods and hills around it.



And it was at the end of a long road.



“It will look pretty in the moonlight,” said Harold.



And he stepped up into the picture to draw the moon.



He looked down at the houses.

“I am a GIANT!” he said.



But a giant would scare all the people in town.



“It is good no one woke up and saw me,” said Harold.



He walked over the hills.

“How big I am!” he said.



Harold’s head was above the clouds.



With a few steps he came to the end of the land.



And at the end of any land there is water.



“It is the sea,” said Harold.

“There are sea gulls.”



Harold was big enough to walk through the sea.



A great big ship went by.

It was an ocean liner.



A big whale came up in the waves, spouting water.



And just ahead of Harold was an old sailing ship.



He easily caught up with it and passed it.



The sea ended against a steep hill.



Harold needed some rocks to step on.



He climbed out of the sea and onto the hill.



Then he saw that the ship was too near the rocks.



He put up a lighthouse to show the sailors.



And he went on his way over high mountains.



Harold was taller than the highest mountain.



“I am higher than anything!” he said.



Then, suddenly, he thought of airplanes.



Harold ducked his head just in time.



It was a big jet plane, flying very fast.



There might have been a bad accident.



Harold found a low place in the mountains.



It was a good place for a railroad to go through.



It came out onto a long flat field.



Harold put some birds and flowers near the tracks.



“People like to see things from trains,” he said.



He went on, drawing tracks and birds and flowers.



And he had to keep looking out for trains.



It was a big job for a small boy.



And all of a sudden he saw how small he had become.



He was half the size of a daisy!



He was smaller than a bird!

How would he get home?



He could not wade home through the ocean.



He could not climb those high mountains.



And, just then, he fell into a mouse hole.



“Excuse me,” he said to the mouse.



Then Harold sat down on a pebble to think.



After a minute or two he stood up again.



“This is only a picture!”

he said.



And he took his crayon

and he crossed it out.



“I am not big or little.

I am my usual size!”



But how could he be sure about that?



At home he was always his usual size.



So he drew the door of his room.



There was a long mirror on the back of the door.



“Yes,” said Harold.

“I am my usual size.”



He was glad to be back in his room. He was tired.



But he had no picture to hang on his wall.



So, before he went to bed,

he drew another picture.

Animals should definitely not wear clothing


Animals should definitely not wear clothing
because it would be disastrous for a porcupine,
because a camel might wear it in the wrong places,
because a snake would lose it,
because a mouse could get lost in it,
because a sheep might find it terribly hot,
because it could be very messy for a pig,
because it might make life hard for a hen,
because a kangaroo would find it quite unnecessary,
because a giraffe might look sort of silly,
because a goat would eat it for lunch,
because it would always be wet on a walrus,
because a moose could never manage,
because opossums might wear it upside down by mistake,
and most of all, because it might be very embarrassing.

Blackboard Bear



Can I play?

Of course not. You're too little.



You can't use a blow and arrow.

You can't lasso anyone.



Can I play?

Of course not. You're too little. You can't shoot a gun.



Go play with your teddy bear.



What a great bear! Can we hold his leash?



Of course not. He only lets me hold it.



Look at that big, fuzzy bear! Can I pat him?



Of course not. He doesn't let anyone else pat him. Only me.



I have to go feed my bear now. I'll see you.



Can you and your bear come fishing?

I'll ask him when he finishes his lunch.

Father Cat's Busy Day(《猫爸爸忙碌的一天》斯凯瑞故事书)
It is early morning.Father cat awakes as the sun comes up.
He looks out of the window."What a perfect day to put the boat in the water!"he says.
He goes downstairs to the kitchen and prepares breakfast for the family.
He brings Mother Cat a cup of coffee in bed.
Father Cat runs outside to his sailboat, parked beside the garage.
He pulls off the canvas cover, and tries to push the boat trailer into the driveway.But the trailer won't move.It has a flat tire.Ungh!
From the garage, Father Cat gets an air pump.Just then, Mother Cat comes up on her bicycle,holding a shopping list."I have to go the the

hairdresser,"she says."Could you please do the food shopping for me this morning?"
Then Huckle arrives with his bicycle, Sally with her tricycle, and Lowly with his scooter.Everyone needs air in the tires!
Finally,Father Cat can pump up the trailer tire.
Then he pulls the boat into the driveway.
But it's time to do the shopping.
The boat trailer is blocking the driveway!
Father Cat drives the Cat family car around the boat,onto the lawn, crushing a few bushes.Sorry,bushes!He also knocks over the mailbox.
At the supermarket, Father Cat realizes he has forgotten Mother Cat's shopping list.
He asks the children to each choose three items from each shopping aisle.That should please Mother Cat.
After the supermarket,the car needs some gas.Father Cat drives into Scotty's gas station.
While he fills up the car,Scotty takes a look at the car moter.He pulls out a few pieces and shows them to Father Cat.
"It's time to replace some parts!"Scotty tells Father Cat."Don't worry, it won't take long."
While Father Cat waits for his car to be repaired, he invites the children across the street for milkshakes.
Meanwhile,back at the Cat family house, the boat trailer has begun to roll down the driveway, and into the street.
Oh,no!Here comes Mr. Frumble in his picklecar!
"Who would sail a boat into the middle of the street!"Mr. Frumble says.
Crash!!!!
Luckily,Mr. Fixit soon arrives on the scene.
With his crane,he removes Father Cat's boat out of harm's way.Then he tows away Mr. Frumble's broken picklecar.
"A good thing that you brought along a trailer, Mr.Frumble!"Mr. Fixit says.
Soon, the Cat family car is ready again.It looks like the ice-cream somebody chose at the supermaket has melted.
Now the car needs to go through the car wash.
At last, they are ready to drive home.Mother Cat must be wondering what has happened to them!
But instead, Mother Cat is wondering what has happened to her poor bushes and the mailbox.
Father Cat looks with surprise at the driveway.
"What has happened to my boat?"he asks.
"I know I left the boat in the driveway,"Father Cat tells Mother Cat."It has to be around here somewhere!"
"Well, before you begin to look,"says Mother Cat,"perhaps you first want to change out of your pyjamas!"
