A big, bad, ugly ogre lives in a beautiful castle. The castle is near Daniel's house. That ogre frightens everyone in the village, says Daniel to his cat. I don't like him. Look, says Daniel's cat. There's Princess Caroline in her coach. You like her? Princess Caroline smiles at Daniel. Yes, I do, says Daniel. She's very beautiful. How can I meet her? I've got an idea, says his cat.

一只凶狠丑陋的大食人魔住在一座漂亮的城堡里。 这座城堡就在丹尼尔家附近。 那个食人魔吓坏了村里的所有人，丹尼尔对他的猫说道。 我不喜欢他。 你看，丹尼尔的猫说道。 卡洛琳公主坐在她的马车里，你喜欢她吗？ 卡洛琳公主朝丹尼尔笑了笑。 是的，我喜欢，丹尼尔说。她非常漂亮。 我怎么才能认识她呢？ 我有个主意，他的猫说道。

I can go to the King's palace with some presents from you, says Daniel's cat. But I'm a poor man, says Daniel. I can't buy presents for the King. No, says his cat, but we can catch some fish for the King. Daniel and his cat go to the river and catch four big fish. Now give me a pair of boots and a hat with a feather, says Daniel's cat.

我可以带着你送的礼物去国王的宫殿，丹尼尔的猫说道。 可我是个穷人啊，丹尼尔说。我买不起送给国王的礼物。 不用买，他的猫说，我们可以给国王抓些鱼。 丹尼尔和他的猫来到河边，抓了四条大鱼。 现在给我一双靴子和一顶插着羽毛的帽子吧，丹尼尔的猫说道。

You look very handsome with your new boots and hat, says Daniel. Good! Now I'm ready to meet the King, says the Cat. What can I call you when I meet the King, says the Cat? I can't call you Daniel. Can I call you Lord Carabass? Yes, says Daniel. That's an excellent name. And I can call you Puss in Boots.

你穿上新靴子、戴上新帽子看起来可真帅气，丹尼尔说。 太好了！现在我准备好去见国王了，猫说道。 我见到国王的时候该怎么称呼你呢？猫问道。 我总不能叫你丹尼尔吧。 我可以叫你卡拉巴斯勋爵吗？ 可以啊，丹尼尔说。这名字太棒了。 那我就叫你穿靴子的猫啦。

Puss in Boots puts the fish in his bag and goes to the King's palace. Good morning, Your Majesty, he says. I've got four big fish in my bag, a present from Lord Carabas. What beautiful big fish! Thank you very much, says the King. Lord Carabas is very kind. When can I meet him? Soon, says Puss in Boots. Very soon.

穿靴子的猫把鱼放进袋子里，动身前往国王的宫殿。 早上好，陛下，他说道。 我的袋子里装了四条大鱼，是卡拉巴斯勋爵送给您的礼物。 多漂亮的大鱼啊！非常感谢你，国王说道。 卡拉巴斯勋爵真是太贴心了，我什么时候能见到他呢？ 很快，穿靴子的猫说。很快就可以了。

The next day Puss in Boots sees the King's coach near the river. Quickly, Daniel, jump into the river, he says. I can't jump into the river, says Daniel. I can't swim. Look, the King's coming in his coach, says Puss in Boots. He can help you. Help, please help, says Puss in Boots. Lord Carabass is in the river and he can't swim. Stop the coach, says the King.

第二天，穿靴子的猫看到国王的马车就在河边附近。 快，丹尼尔，快跳进河里去，他说道。 我不能跳进河里啊，丹尼尔说。我不会游泳。 你看，国王坐着马车过来了，穿靴子的猫说。 他会救你的。 救命啊，快来人救命啊，穿靴子的猫大喊道。 卡拉巴斯勋爵掉进河里了，他不会游泳！ 停下马车，国王说道。
