Owl Babies §小猫头鹰§ 作者：文/ （爱尔兰） MARTIN WADDELL（马 丁·韦德尔） 图/ （英）PATRICK BENSON（派克·宾 森） Once there were three baby owls: Sarah and Percy and Bill. They lived in a hole in the trunk of a tree with their Owl Mother. The hole had twigs and leaves and owl feathers in it. It was their house. 从前，有三只猫头鹰宝宝： 莎拉、波西和比尔。 他们和妈妈一起住在一个树洞里。 洞里扑着树枝、叶子和羽毛。 那儿是他们的家。 One night they woke up and their Owl Mother was GONE. Wheres Mummy? asked Sarah. Oh my goodness! said Percy. I want my mummy! said Bill. 一天夜里，小猫头鹰们醒来， 发现他们的妈妈不见了。 “妈妈哪去了？”莎拉问。 “我的天啊！”波西说。 “我要妈妈！”比尔嚷嚷。 The baby owls thought (all owls think a lot) --- I think shes gone hunting, said Sarah. To get us our food! said Percy. “I want my mummy!” said Bill. 小宝宝们想（所有的猫头鹰都喜欢 瞎想）－－ “我猜她是去打猎了。”莎拉说。 “是去给我们找吃的！”波西说。 “我要妈妈！”比尔嚷嚷。 But their Owl Mother didnt come. The baby owls came out of their house and they sat on the tree and waited. 但是猫头鹰妈妈没有回 来。 猫头鹰宝宝们从洞里出 来，坐在树上等她。 A big branch for Sarah, a small branch for Percy, and an old bit of ivy for Bill. Shell be back, said Sarah. Back soon! said Percy. I want my mummy! said Bill. 莎拉坐在一根很粗的树枝上， 波西坐在一根细细的树枝上， 比尔坐在一条老常春藤上。 “她会回来的。”莎拉说。 “马上就会回来！”波西说。 “我要妈妈！”比尔嚷嚷。 It was dark in the wood and they had to be brave, for things moved all around them. Shell bring us mice and things that are nice, said Sarah. I suppose so! said Percy. I want my mummy! said Bill. 森林里很黑， 有什么东西在他们周围走来走去，他 们只能给自己壮胆。 “她会带着老鼠和其它好东西回来。” 莎拉说。 “我猜也是！??波西说。 “我要妈妈！”比尔嚷嚷。 They sat and they thought (all owls think a lot) -- I think we should all sit on my branch, said Sarah. And they did, all three together. 他们坐在那儿想 （所有的猫头鹰都爱瞎想）－－ “我觉得我们应该都坐到一起 来。”莎拉说。 于是，他们三个就坐一块儿去了。 Suppose she got lost, said Sarah. Or a fox got her! said Percy. I want my mummy! said Bill. And the baby owls closed their owl eyes and wished their Owl Mother would come. “她可能迷路了。”莎拉说。 “也可能是被狐狸抓住！”波西说。 “我要妈妈！”比尔嚷嚷。 猫头鹰宝宝们闭上眼睛祈祷，希望 他们的妈妈能回来。 AND SHE CAME. 她终于回来了。 Soft and silent, she swoope
