绘本节选
1.Too Late!
Jack stared out his bedroom window. The rain kept falling. And falling.
"The TV said it would stop by noon," said Annie, his seven-year-old sister.
"It's already past noon," said Jack.
"But we have to go to the tree house," said Annie. "I have a feeling the M person will be there today."
Jack pushed his glasses into place and took a deep breath. He wasn't sure he was ready to meet the M person yet. The mysterious person who had put all the books in the magic tree house.
"Come on," said Annie.
Jack sighed. "Okay," he said."You get our raincoats and boots. I'll get the medallion and bookmark.”
Annie ran to get their rain gear.
Jack reached into his drawer. He took out the medallion.
It was gold. The letter M was engraved on it.
1.为时已晚!
杰克盯着卧室的窗外。 雨一直在下。 而坠落。
“电视说中午会停，”他七岁的妹妹安妮说。
“已经过了中午，”杰克说。
“但我们必须去树屋，”安妮说。 “我有预感，今天会有M人出现。”
杰克推了推眼镜，深吸了一口气。 他不确定自己是否已经准备好见到 M 人了。 把所有书籍都放在魔法树屋里的神秘人。
“来吧，”安妮说。
杰克叹了口气。 “好吧，”他说，“你拿我们的雨衣和靴子。我去拿奖章和书签。”
安妮跑去拿雨具。
杰克把手伸进抽屉里。 他拿出了奖章。
那是金子。 上面刻着字母M。
