《三只小猪：狼的故事》 内德·詹森 著 乔尔·斯奈德 绘

Once upon a time, in a quiet country village, there lived three little pigs. They were the luckiest swine in the country. They had just inherited enough money from their grandfather to build three new houses.

很久很久以前，在一座宁静的乡村小村子里，住着三只小猪。 它们是全村最幸运的小猪。 它们刚从爷爷那里继承了足够的钱，刚好够盖三座新房子。

The first little pig wanted a warm and cozy house that would help him to relax. He built his house out of straw, the warmest and most familiar material he knew. The second little pig loved to shock the neighbors. He picked sticks for materials and built a modern house like Frank Lloyd Wright.

第一只小猪想要一间温暖舒适的房子，好让自己放松休息。 他用稻草盖房子，这是他知道的最温暖也最熟悉的材料。 第二只小猪就喜欢给邻居惊喜。 他选了木棍当材料，盖了一座像弗兰克·劳埃德·赖特设计的现代房子。

The third little pig, who planned for any imagined disaster, built a sturdy house of bricks and mortar.

第三只小猪会为所有可能的意外做准备，他用砖和灰浆盖了一座结实的房子。

Not far off, in the cold, damp forest, lived a poor, old wolf. He lived in a rotten, hollow log and searched the forest for whatever food he could find. He had no money, not a single cent, to build a house or plant a garden. Unlike most wolves, he was a vegetarian. When winter arrived, it was extremely bitter and harsh. The wolf ate so little that he became weak and caught a terrible cold. Soon he was constantly sniffling and sneezing. He sneezed so hard that he blew dried leaves off the forest's trees.

不远处阴冷潮湿的森林里，住着一只可怜的老狼。 他住在一根腐朽的空心木头里，在森林里四处找能吃的食物。 他一分钱都没有，既盖不了房子也种不了菜园。 和大多数狼不一样，他是一只素食者。 冬天来了，天气格外寒冷严酷。 狼吃得太少，变得十分虚弱，还染上了重感冒。 很快，他就不停地抽鼻子、打喷嚏。 他打喷嚏打得太用力，都把树上的干叶子吹落了。

The sickly wolf left the forest in search of food and shelter. He sniffled and sneezed as he traveled down the road. Achoo, achoo! With each sneeze, the snow whirled into a white cloud around his frost -bitten ears.

生病的老狼离开森林，去寻找食物和容身之处。 他沿着路走，一边抽鼻子一边打喷嚏。 阿嚏，阿嚏！ 每打一个喷嚏，雪花就在他冻僵的耳朵边旋成一团白雾。
