如 何 阅 读 这 本 书

这是一个关于蜕变的故事。皎洁的月光下，那小小的、弱弱的卵开始孵化，里面钻出来的是一只瘦弱的毛毛虫。

它开始了它的“吃喝”之旅，从一个洞洞开始钻到两个洞洞里，再到三个、四个······孩子们乐此不疲的忙碌于洞洞书的乐趣中，跟着毛毛虫享受着美食，跟着毛毛虫变大，跟着毛毛虫穿梭于洞洞之中。

接下来，毛毛虫病了吗？它开始不吃不喝，与之前的逐渐变大不同，这次它完全变成了另外一个模样，一个完全意想不到的模样—Cocoon（茧）！

可能好多孩子此时开始失望，那条绿绿的毛毛虫怎么变得如此难看？莫急，莫急，毛毛虫的蜕变才刚刚开始，果然，在结尾我们看到了一只斑斓的蝴蝶！

孩子们会忍不住惊叹起来！毛毛虫哪里去了呢？这只蝴蝶是哪来的呢？蜕变就是这样神奇，大自然就是这样神奇，绘本同样是这样神奇！

《好饿的毛毛虫》

In the light of the moon a little egg lay on a leaf.

月光下，一个小小的卵，躺在树叶上。

One Sunday morning the warm sun came up and pop! Out of the egg came a tiny and very hungry caterpillar.

一个星期天的早晨，暖暖的太阳升起来了——啪！——从卵壳里钻出一条又小又饿的毛毛虫。

That night he had a stomach-ache!

那天晚上，他开始肚子疼了。

The next day was Sunday again. The caterpillar ate through one nice green leaf, and after that he felt much better.

Now he wasn’t hungry anymore -- and he wasn’t a little caterpillar anymore. He was a big, fat caterpillar.

现在，他再也感觉不到饿了——他已经不再一条小小的毛毛虫了，他长成了一只肥嘟嘟的大毛毛虫。

He built a small house, called a cocoon, around himself. He stayed inside for more than two weeks. Then he nibbled a hole in the cocoon, pushed his way out….

他绕着自己的身子，建了一个叫“茧”的小房子。他在里面整整待了两周。然后他在茧上一点一点地啃了一个小洞，钻了出来…..

He became a beautiful butterfly!

他现在是一只漂亮的蝴蝶啦！
