Owl Babies英文绘本阅读

Once there were three baby owls: Sarah and Percy and Bill. They live 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.

从前有三只猫头鹰宝宝：Sarah和Percy还有Bill。他们和猫头鹰妈妈住在一颗树干上的树洞里。树洞里有一些小树枝，叶子还有猫头鹰的羽毛。这是他们的家。

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

"Where's Mummy?" asked Sarah.

"Oh my goodness!" said Percy.

"I want my mummy!" said Bill.

一天晚上他们醒来发现猫头鹰妈妈不见了。

“妈妈去哪了？”Sarah问。

“噢我的天啊！”Percy说。

“我要妈妈！”Bill说。

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 mummy !" said Bill.

猫头鹰宝宝们想 （所有的猫头鹰都会思考很多）-

“我觉得妈妈是去打猎了。” Sarah说。

“去给我们找食物！” Percy说。

“我要我妈妈！” Bill说。

But their Owl Mother didn't come. The baby owls came out of their house and they set on the tree and waited.

但是他们的猫头鹰妈妈没有回来。猫头鹰宝宝们从他们的家里出来坐在树上等啊等。

A big branch for Sarah, a small branch for Percy, and an old bit of ivy for Bill. 

"She'll be back," said Sarah.

"Back soon!" said Percy.

" I want my mummy!" said Bill.

一根大树枝给Sarah，一根小树枝给Percy，一根有点儿老的常春藤是给Bill。

“她会回来的。” Sarah说。

“很快会回来！” Percy说。

“我要妈妈！” Bill说。

It was dark in the wood 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 mummy!" 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.

树林里很黑而且有东西在周围动来动去，他们必须要很勇敢。

“她会带美味的老鼠回来的” Sarah说。

“我想是的！” Percy说。

“我要我妈妈！” Bill说。

他们坐着并且想着（所有的猫头鹰都会思考很多）-

“我觉得我们应该都坐到我的树枝上来” Sarah说。然后他们都照做了，三个一起。

“Suppose she got lost,” said Sarah.

"Or a fox got her!" said Percy.

"I want my mummy!" said Bill.

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

“也许她迷路了，”Sarah说。

“或者被狐狸抓住了！”Percy说。

“我要妈妈！”Bill说。

然后猫头鹰宝宝们闭上了眼睛祈祷着猫头鹰妈妈回来。

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

她回来了。轻轻的静静的，她俯冲过Sarah和Percy还有Bill的树中。

"Mummy!" they cried.

and they flapped and they danced, and they bounced up and down on their branch.

“妈妈！”他们哭喊到。

然后他们拍打着翅膀飞舞，他们在树枝上弹上弹下。

"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 mummy!" said Bill.

“这么大惊小怪做什么？”猫头鹰妈妈问。

“你们知道我会回来的。”

猫头鹰宝宝们想（所有猫头鹰都会思考很多）-

“我知道，” Sarah说。

“我也知道！” Percy说。

“我爱妈妈！” Bill说。

All owls think a lot, even baby owls, like Sarah and Percy and Bill. And they think more than ever at night in the woods, when they're waiting for their Owl Mother to come HOME.

所有的猫头鹰都思考很多，甚至是猫头鹰宝宝，就像Sarah和Percy还有Bill。尤其是在黑夜的树林里，他们在思考，他们在等待猫头鹰妈妈回家。
