《酷帅小库克》 作者：玛丽贝思·博尔茨 绘者：诺拉·武蒂斯

My cousin Qq is coming to visit, says Uzzle. The monsters meet Qq. Qq can yo -yo. He can do tricks on his bike.

阿扎说：“我的表哥扣扣要来看我啦。” 小怪物们见了扣扣 。扣扣会玩悠悠球， 还会玩自行车特技。

Q is very cool, says Uzzle. I don't think I like Q, says Bonk. You will when you get to know him, says Uzzle.

阿扎说：“扣扣可太酷啦。” 邦克说：“我觉得我可不喜欢他。” 阿扎说：“等你了解他就会喜欢啦。”

The monsters have a picnic. Kuke can spit watermelon seeds. He can whistle like a bird. He can race and win every time.

小怪物们一起去野餐。 库克会吐西瓜籽。 他吹的口哨像小鸟叫一样好听。 每次赛跑他都能拿第一名。

Uzzle, Lurk, and Snag dress like Cuke. They wear shoes like Cuke. They comb their fur like Cuke.

阿扎、勒克和斯纳格都学库克的打扮。 他们穿和库克一样的鞋子。 他们还学库克的样子梳自己的毛。

Bonk does not. He does not want to play. Who needs Cuke? He says.

邦克才不呢。他不想凑这个热闹。 他嘀咕道：“谁稀罕库克呀。”
