1 A Flower for Frog

A Flower for Frog Frog was sunning on his rock when he saw something red.

给青蛙的一朵花 青蛙正趴在自己的石头上晒太阳，忽然看到个红红的东西。

It was in the long grass. What is that? Frog wondered. He hopped over to check.

它藏在高高的草丛里。 那是什么呀？ 青蛙心里犯嘀咕。 他蹦蹦跳跳地凑过去查看。

It was a pretty red flower growing close to his pond. Just to look at it made Frog happy. "Come and see Flower," he told his friends. "Isn't she pretty?" "Oh yes." His friends liked her as much as he did.

原来是一朵漂亮的小红花，紧挨着他的池塘长着。 光是看着这朵花，青蛙就开心得不行。 “快来看小花呀。”他招呼自己的朋友们。 “她是不是特别好看？” “对呀，太好看啦。” 朋友们和他一样喜欢这朵小花。

"Her name is Flower," he told them. Chameleon sighed. "That is a pretty name. It is easy to say. My name is hard to say." "We like it," Little Jumping Mouse told him. "It may be French," Frog said.

“她的名字就叫小花。”他告诉大家。 变色龙叹了口气。 “这名字可真好听， 念起来也顺口。 我的名字就很难念。” “我们喜欢你的名字呀。”小跳鼠跟他说。 “说不定它是个法语名字呢。”青蛙说。

"How did Flower get here?" Raccoon asked. They thought about it. "Maybe a friend of Frog's brought it and left it there for him," Rabbit said. "I left a carrot at my friend's house this morning.

“小花是怎么跑到这儿来的呀？”浣熊问。 大家都琢磨起来。 “说不定是青蛙的哪个朋友带来，特意放在这儿送给他的。”兔子说。 “我今早还把一根胡萝卜落在我朋友家了呢。”
