something so big

一个超大的家伙

Bill Hooley lived in a pot with his small friends, the Creepies and Crawlies. Each day, something so big came with the watering can and watered the flowers in the pot. The Creepies and Crawlies all liked that a lot. It stopped them from getting too hot. But one day...

比尔·胡利和他的小好朋友们——小爬爬虫们一起住在一个花盆里。 每天呀，那个大家伙都会拿着洒水壶来，给花盆里的花浇水。 小爬爬虫们可喜欢这件事啦。 这样大家就不会被热得难受啦。 可是有一天……

The sun shone and something so big didn't come. It got hot, hot, hot, hot in the pot, almost too hot to breathe. Much too hot for the creepies and crawlies. Help us, Bill Hooley! They cried and they curled up like little dried twigs in the shade of the flowers in the pot. Help us!

太阳火辣辣地晒着，可那个大家伙没来。 花盆里变得好热好热好热好热，热得大家都快喘不上气啦。 小爬爬虫们实在受不了这么热的天气啦。 救救我们呀，比尔·胡利！ 大家哭呀哭，缩得像干枯的小树枝似的，躲在花盆里的花影底下。 救救我们呀！

Bill Hooley was brave. Tom -titty -tom -titty -tom -titty -tom. He set off to look for the watering can, all by his small self alone.

比尔·胡利可勇敢啦。 咚——嘀咚——嘀咚——嘀咚——。 他要自己一个人出发，去把洒水壶找回来。

Bill Hooley went round Greenbottom's leaf. Good morning, Greenbottom, Bill Hooley said. Have you seen the watering can? You'd better ask Ladybug, gasped Greenbottom. Tum -titty -tum -titty -tum -titty -tum. Bill Hooley set off to find Ladybug. All by his small self, alone.

比尔·胡利绕过了绿屁股的叶子。 早上好呀，绿屁股，比尔·胡利说。 你看见洒水壶去哪了吗？ 你去问问花大姐吧，绿屁股喘着气说。 咚——嘀咚——嘀咚——嘀咚——。 比尔·胡利出发去找花大姐啦。 就他小小的一个人，独自上路。
