斑点蛙是如何让自己变漂亮的？(6)

每天,当大玛丽坐在阳光下时,斑点蛙就从岩石下面爬出来,藏在草丛中,看着她.她认为大玛丽很棒,但她认为那件蓝色丝绸连衣裙和粉红色的阳伞则更棒,至于那件柔软的暖手套,那是最棒的!可怜的小斑点蛙希望她也有一件蓝色的蕾丝丝制连衣裙,以及一件像大玛丽的粉色阳伞那样的阳伞.但最重要的是,她希望自己也有一个柔软的暖手套.
Now it happened, too, that it was just about the time for Mr. Robin Redbreast to give his big party in the orchard, and little Freckle Frog had been invited, and more than that, her own cousin, Billy Bullfrog, had promised to sing, and of course she wished to look just as nice as she could.
现在是时候了,罗宾知更鸟先生即将在果园里举行他的大派对了,小斑点蛙亦受到了邀请,除此之外,她的堂兄比利牛蛙还答应知更鸟先生要唱歌,她希望自己在派对上看起来尽可能的好看.
So early one fine day, she went to see the Morning Glory Ladies who live near the back porch and always wear such beautiful dresses, and she said to them:"Oh, dear Morning Glory Ladies, your dresses are always so beautiful! But have you seen Big Mary"s blue silk trimmed with lace? It is more beautiful still, the loveliest dress in the whole world! Would you mind making me one like that to wear to Robin Redbreast"s party? My cousin, Billy Bullfrog, is to sing, and I wish so very much to look just as nice as I can. I am not one bit pretty like Big Mary, but clothes always help a great deal, you know. Would you mind lending me one for the party?"
