绘本节选
Jack heard knocking on his door. Teddy and Kathleen were knocking! They
were calling to him! He had to help them save Penny! Jack tried to cross his
room ... but his legs wouldn't move. He couldn't get to the door!
The knocking grew louder. "Jack?" his dad called.
Jack opened his eyes. Where was he?
"Jack, get up! School!" came his dad's voice.
What a dream, thought Jack. He quickly sat up in bed. He'd overslept!
"Jack? Are you awake?" said his dad, peeking into his room.
"Yep, thanks, Dad!” said Jack.
"Better hurry," said Jack's dad. He closed the door.
Jack hopped out of bed. Where's Annie? he wondered. They had planned
to go to the tree house before school! Today was the day to find the fourth
thing to save Penny.
Jack pulled on his jeans and a T-shirt and rushed out of his room. Annie
charged out of her room at the same moment. "We overslept!" she said.
"No kidding," said Jack. "Hurry! We have to get to the tree house before
school starts."
杰克听到敲门声。 泰迪和凯瑟琳在敲门! 他们在呼唤他! 他必须帮助他们救出佩妮! 杰克试图穿过他的房间……但他的腿一动不动。 他进不去门口!
敲门声越来越大。 “杰克?” 他爸爸打来电话。
杰克睁开眼睛。 他在哪里?
“杰克,起来!学校!” 传来他父亲的声音。
真是个梦,杰克想。 他迅速从床上坐了起来。 他睡过头了!
“杰克?你醒了吗?” 他爸爸说,偷看他的房间。
“好的,谢谢爸爸!” 杰克说。
“最好快点,”杰克的爸爸说。 他关上了门。
杰克跳下床。 安妮在哪里? 他想知道。 他们曾计划
放学前去树屋! 今天是找到第四件事来拯救佩妮的日子。
杰克穿上他的牛仔裤和一件 T 恤,冲出他的房间。 安妮同时冲出她的房间。 “我们睡过头了!” 她说。
“不开玩笑,”杰克说。 “快点!我们必须在开学前赶到树屋。”
