绘本节选
Monday afternoon Wendell Fultz's mother told him to clean his room. "It's turning into a pigsty," she said.
Wendell went upstair. Much to his surprise, a large pig was sitting on his bed.
"Pardon me," said Wendell. He shoved some toys into his closet. But the pig didn't seem to mind the mess, and Wendell found that he didn't mind the pig, either.
He decided to take a break.
When Wendell's mother came to look at his room, the pig was hiding, but the mess was still there. She threw up her hands. "Okey, Wendell," she said. "If you want to live in a pigsty, that's up to you."
Wendell could hardly believe his luck. "Now I can live however I want."
He didn't even worry when he came home on Tuesday and found a second pig in his room. The mess had grown a bit worse, but he was able to jam most of it under his bed.
"Pigs are all right," he said, "as long as it's only one or two."
I fact, they had a wonderful time. They played Monopoly until late each night...
...and left the pieces lying all over the floor.
They had paper airplane wars and pillow fights.
The bed became a trampoline.
