Lisa’s Wish

Lisa sat among the trees on the island, drawing. “ Lisa! We need to leave, ” shouted Mom. “ I’m coming, ” said Lisa. Lisa hurried to the boat. “ I just finished my picture. Look. ” “ Oh, that’s very nice, ” said Mom. “ Is that you on the horse?” “ No, ” answered Lisa sadly. “ I don’t know how to ride a horse. This is Princess Sunapee and the eagle king. ”

丽莎坐在岛上的树间画画。“丽莎！我们得走了，”妈妈喊道。 ”我来了，”丽莎说。丽莎匆匆忙忙地走到船上。“我刚拍完照片。看。”“哦，那太好了，”妈妈说。“你在马上吗？” ”不，”丽莎悲伤地回答。“我不知道怎么骑马。这是苏纳佩公主和鹰王。”

" It is a nice picture, ” said Grandma. “ It’s also time to teach her to ride. ” “ Lisa is too young to ride a horse, ” said Mom to Grandma. " Wow, what a day! ” said Dad. “ I’m exhausted, ” said Frank. “ I guess it must be all the swimming and baseball. ”

”这是一张很好的照片，”奶奶说。“这是也是时候教她骑马了。”“丽莎太小了，不能骑马，”妈妈对奶奶说。 “哇，多么美好的一天！”爸爸说。“我累坏了，”弗兰克说。“我想是吧一定是游泳和棒球。”

I can’t wait to go to bed so I can put my eagle feather under my pillow, ” said Lisa. “ I know it’ll work just as well as a tooth. ” Back at Grandpa’s house, Lisa talked to her brother. “ Having a missing tooth feels strange, ” said Lisa. " You’ll get used to it, ” said Frank. “ And the big ones in back feel the strangest. ” “ I’ll lose those too? Wow, that’s a lot of wishes. ”

我等不及要睡觉了“我枕头下的鹰羽毛，”丽莎说。“我知道它和牙齿一样有效。” 回到爷爷家，丽莎和她哥哥说话。“牙齿缺失感觉很奇怪，”丽莎说。 “你会习惯的，”弗兰克说。“后面的大家伙感觉最奇怪。”“我也会丢掉这些？哇，太多了愿望。”

" Ah, don’t believe in those wishes too much, ” said Frank. “ My wishes hardly ever came true. Instead you’ll just find a dollar under your pillow in the morning. ” “ I don’t believe you, ” said Lisa. " You’ll see, ” Frank said, smugly. “ The tooth fairy is getting old. She can’t grant as many wishes as she used to. She’ll give you a dollar instead. If you find a dollar under your pillow tomorrow, then you know that your wish isn’t going to come true. ”

”啊，不要太相信这些愿望，”弗兰克说。“我的愿望几乎没有实现。 相反，早上你只会在枕头下找到一美元。”“我不相信你，”丽莎说。 “你会明白的，”弗兰克沾沾自喜地说。“牙仙老了，她不能像以前那样许下那么多愿望了。 她会给你一美元。如果你在下面找到一美元明天你的枕头，你就知道你的愿望不会实现。”

Lisa didn’t believe her brother because she knew that she was making a wish to the feather fairy and not the tooth fairy. Lisa carefully put the feather under the pillow of the bottom bunk. 'Did you brush your teeth?” asked Mom. “ Yes, Mom, we both did, ” said Lisa.

丽莎不相信她的哥哥，因为她知道她是在向羽毛仙子而不是牙齿仙子许愿。 丽莎小心翼翼地把羽毛放在下铺的枕头下面。 ”你刷牙了吗？”妈妈问。“是的，妈妈，我们都做了，”丽莎说。

" Mom, Frank said that the tooth fairy is too old to grant wishes anymore. Is that true, Mom?” asked Lisa. No, but the tooth fairy can’t grant all wishes. Her magic is only as big as your tooth. If your wish is too big for her magic, she sometimes just leaves a dollar, ” answered Mom.

“妈妈，弗兰克说牙齿仙女太老了，不能再许下愿望了。妈妈，这是真的吗？”丽莎问。 不，但牙仙不能满足所有的愿望。她的魔法只有你的牙齿那么大。 如果你的愿望对她的魔法来说太大了，她有时只留下一美元。
