Chapter 1

Chapter 1 Knit, click, knit, click, knit, click. Knit, click, knit, click, knit, click. Dirt paid careful attention to her knitting needles, counting the stitches as she went. She gave the yarn a big tug, and Sugar's yellow head appeared from inside the rolling ball of rainbow yarn. "What are you doing in my yarn??" asked Dirt, annoyed. "It's my new sweater–sleeping bag. I call it a sweating bag." "I'm using that yarn to knit everyone a scarf for the cooler weather," said Dirt, giving the ball another pull. "I don't think it should smell like chicken sweat!"

第一章编织，咔哒，编织，咔哒，编织，咔哒。 织，咔哒，织，咔哒，织，咔哒。 污垢仔细地注意着她的编织针，边织边数针数。 她使劲拉了一下纱线，糖的黄色脑袋从滚滚的彩虹纱线里冒了出来。 “你在我的毛线里干什么——？”泥土生气地问。 “这是我的新毛衣睡袋。 我把它叫做出汗袋。” “我要用这些毛线给大家织一条围巾，以防天气变冷。”泥土说着，又拉了拉球。 “我不认为它应该闻起来像鸡汗！”

"Look, kid, at the end of the day, we all smell like chicken sweat. Besides, why do all that work?" asked Sugar, climbing out of the ball. "It's perfect the way it is! Just toss everyone a ball of wool and call it a day." "Sugar's right," said Sweetie, her head appearing out of the top of a ball of rainbow- colored yarn. "They're kind of perfect just the way they are." Sweetie tipped backward and rolled down the ramp of the chicken coop. "Sweetie!" yelled Poppy, running after his sister.

“听着，孩子，一天下来，我们身上都散发着鸡汗的味道。 再说，为什么要这么做呢？”糖边问边从球里爬出来。 “这样就太完美了！”就扔给每个人一团羊毛，然后收工吧。” “小甜甜说得对，”小甜甜说，她的头从一团彩虹色的纱线中露出来。 “他们本来的样子就很完美。” 小甜甜向后倾，滚下了鸡舍的斜坡。 “亲爱的！”波比喊道，追赶着他的妹妹。

When Sweetie rolled to a stop, she found herself under the muddy sneaker of Anna McClanahanahan and looking straight up into her nostrils. "Um, Anna, you've got a few... uh... bats in the cave," she said shyly. "Huh?" asked Anna, looking down at her. "Cars in the garage?" tried Poppy, now standing next to his yarn ball of a sister. Anna's face was still blank. "Ahem, you have visible mucus in your nostrils," explained Poppy. "Why didn't you just say so?" asked Anna. "I was trying to be polite!" said Sweetie, ducking her head back into her cozy rainbow ball. "I need your help," Anna declared as she cleared her nostrils. "You're gonna have to handle those yourself," said Sugar as she walked down the ramp with Dirt right behind her. "Bat removal is a highly personal situation."

当小甜甜停下来的时候，她发现自己躺在安娜·麦克拉纳哈纳汉（Anna McClanahanahan）泥泞的运动鞋下面，眼睛直盯着自己的鼻孔。 “嗯，安娜，你有一些…… 嗯…洞里有蝙蝠，”她害羞地说。 “嗯？”安娜低头看着她问道。 “车库里有车吗？”波比试着问，他现在站在他那毛线球似的妹妹旁边。 安娜的脸仍然毫无表情。 “嗯哼，你的鼻孔里有可见的粘液，”波比解释说。 “你为什么不早说呢？”安娜问。 “我只是想礼貌一点！”小甜甜说着，把头缩进了她舒适的彩虹球里。 “我需要你的帮助，”安娜一边清鼻孔一边说。 “你得自己处理这些事了。”休格说着走下斜坡，泥土就在她后面。 “清除蝙蝠是一件非常个人化的事情。”

"But I really do need your help, little chickens" said Anna., "It's a little early in the morning to get lost," said Sugar, "but if you walk out the gate that you came in and turn left, your house is exactly two doors down. Case closed." "I'm not lost!" replied Anna, sniffling. "My hams—WAAAHHHHHH!" Anna burst into tears. Sugar tossed her the entire ball of rainbow-colored yarn with Sweetie still inside of it.

“但是我真的需要你们的帮助，小鸡们。”安娜说。“现在迷路有点太早了，”休格说，“但如果你从你进来的那扇门走出去，然后向左拐，你的房子就在后面两个门的地方。 关闭。”“我没有迷路！”安娜抽泣着回答。 “我的hams-WAAAHHHHHH !”安娜突然大哭起来。 糖糖把整个彩虹色的纱线球扔给了她，小甜甜还在里面。
