Amy the Hedgehogs GirlMiserable Mr PeckHer mum was in the kitchen when Amy rushed in.‘How was school?’ asked Mrs Harris, expecting the usual answer, ‘OK.’‘It was great,’cried Amy. ‘A lady gave us a talk on wildlife and she showed us a hedgehog expert.’‘A what?’ said Mrs Harris.‘A hedgehog expert. Someone who knows all about hedgehogs.’‘That’s good,’said Mrs Harris. ‘You’ll need to go the library and see if you can find some books.’‘Oh dear,’Amy groaned. ‘I’ll have to see Mr Peck.’Mr Peck was t he children’s librarian. He was a mean and miserable sort of person. He also lived next door to Amy.The library was almost empty when Amy arrived. She looked along the shelves, trying to find a book on hedgehogs.‘What are you doing?’ snapped a voice be hind her.Amy nearly jumped out of her socks. It was Mr Peck.‘I was looking for a book about animals.’‘Animals, indeed,’ sniffed Mr Peck. ‘What sort of animals? Tame animals? Wild animals? Animals from Africa? India? Britain?’‘Hedgehogs,’ said Amy.‘Hedgehogs!’ bawled Mr Peck. ‘The very worst animals there are. They dig up vegetables and bite lumps out of them.’He pulled a book from the shelves.‘If you must study the horrid things,this is the best I can do.’‘Thank you, said Amy politely.‘Make sure you bring it back on time. And don’t you dare bring hedgehogs into your garden. Your garden is next to mine, do n’t forget. If I see a hedgehog near my carrots, do you know what I am going to do?’‘No,’ said Amy.‘I’m going to squirt it with my spray gun.’At home, Amy read the book on hedgehogs. She found out that they ate slugs and snails. The book didn’t say anything about vegetables.The next day she took the book back to the library.‘What’s this?’ said Mr Peck. ‘This book is not due back for another twenty days.’‘But I’ve read it,’ said Amy. ‘Have you got any more books about hedgehogs?’‘Over there,’ snapped Mr Peck, pointing with his nose.Amy walked slowly along the shelves. Where were the books about animals? She was just about to risk asking Mr Peck, when she saw something. It was an old cassette tape, called‘Calls of the Wild’. It looked as if nobody had ever played it.Amy took it down from the shelf. It was part of a set of animal noises. This was tape number 12 and it was called Hedgehogs.Amy asked Mr Peck if she could borrow the cassette.‘Of course you can,’ he said rudely. ‘Though anybody who wants to listen to horrid animal noises must be mad.’He stamped the cassette box.‘And don’t forget to rewind the tape.’Hedgehog talkAmy sat in her room listening to the sounds of hedgehogs on her personal stereo, over and over again. Amy repeated the sounds herself.‘I’m talking hedgehog,’ thought Amy. ‘I wish I knew what I was saying. I really need a hedgehog to help me. I’m sure there’s one in t he garden. If I make hedgehog noises, perhaps it will hear me.’Amy ran down into the garden and made hedgehog noises as loudly as she could.She stopped and listened, but no hedgehogs answered. Amy tried again. But only a cat came into the garden.‘I’m going to keep trying,’said Amy. ‘I’m sure I can do it.’ At last she got cold and she went indoors.The next night Amy tried again. She tried every night for a week.‘What are you doing out there?’ asked Mrs Harris.‘Wait and see,’ said Amy.Just then the door bell rang. It was Mr Peck. He stood at the door in his dressing gown. Amy noticed that his hair was wet.‘Mrs Harris,’ said Mr Peck. ‘Every night when I have my bath I can hear a noise. It seems to be coming from your garden.’Amy giggled behind her hand.‘Noise?’ said Mrs Harris.‘Some sort of animal,’ said Mr Peck. ‘I’d put poison down if I were you. That is the only way to deal with animals.’As soon as Mr Peck had gone, Amy dashed out into the garden. ‘Mr Peck thought I was an animal,’ she said to herself. ‘I’m going to try one more time.’Amy went down on her knees and began to make her hedgehog sounds again.Almost at once there was a rustling noise and a hedgehog lumbered onto the lawn. Amy was delighted. The hedgehog and Amy snorted and squeaked at each other.Suddenly a torch beam shone in their eyes.‘What’s going on?’ said a voice. It was Mr Peck, still in his dressing gown. The hedgehog rolled into a ball.‘I’m chatting to a hedgehog,’ said Amy.‘You cheeky young thing. Talking to hedgehogs indeed.’‘Excuse me—’ began Amy.‘And what’s more,’Mr Peck cut in, ‘hedgehogs are dirty little beasts and they eat up all the vegetables in my garden.’‘Rubbish!’ said Amy crossly. ‘Hedgehogs are not dirty. And they don’t eat vegetables. They eat slugs and snails. Now, if you? don’t mind, I was talking to a hedgehog.’Mr Peck was too shocked to answer. His mouth dropped open as Amy snorted gently to the hedgehog. Slowly it unrolled.A sly look crept across Mr Peck’s face.‘How often have you been doing this,my dear?’ he asked.‘Never before,’ said Amy. ‘But from now on, I’ll be every night.’‘Hm,’ said Mr Peck. ‘You’re going to be here every night, you say.’The amazing hedgehog girlWhen Amy came home from school the next day, Mr Peck was in his front drive. He was fixing a large board to the gate. As soon as he saw Amy, he threw his coat over it.Amy had promised to show her mum the hedgehog. It was getting dark when they stepped into the garden to see her hedgehog friend.Amy went down on her knees and began to snort. This time two hedgehogs came up to her.‘What are you talking about?’ whispered Mrs Harris.‘Slugs.’There was a sound from next door. Amy shone her torch towards the fence. There were people staring into her garden. They all had their mouths open.One person stood out. It was Mr Peck.‘I’ve asked a few friends over,’ he said smoothly. ‘I hope you don’t mind.’Amy was cross, but she also felt rather proud that so many people had come to see her.‘You may wat c h. But please don’t talk or make a noise. And no photos.’The people nodded.Amy went down on her knees and snorted once more.This time three more hedgehogs came up. Amy managed to tell the hedgehogs that they had nothing to fear. The people just wanted to see how clever they were. Amy and the hedgehogs talked and played together.As soon as the hedgehogs had gone, the people behind the fence began to clap and cheer. Of course they wanted to know what Amy and the hedgehogs had been talking about.‘They told me about their young. Then they to ld me why they curl up into a ball. And where to find the tastiest grubs. Oh, and they told me where they are going to sleep for the winter.’Mrs Harris hugged Amy.‘You were fantastic,’ she said. ‘Come in and I’ll make you a nice hot drink.’‘Yes. In you go,’ said Mr Peck cheerily. ‘I’m sure you must be very tired.’There was something strange about Mr Peck. He had never said anything kind to Amy before. Then she heard an odd noise. It was the sound of coins being dropped into a box.‘It was worth a pound of anybody’s money,’ she heard someone say.‘Ssh,’ said Mr Peck.Then Amy remembered the board that Mr Peck had been fixing to his front gate. Why had Mr Peck tried to hide it? Amy rushed round to the front of the house. There on the board in large letters it said: ‘What a nerve,’ said Amy. Then a smile crept across her face. ‘I know how to fix you, Mr Peck.’She raced round to Mr Peck’s garden. Some of the people were still enjoying a cup of tea and biscuits.Before Mr Peck could stop her, she said,’ Ladies and gentlemen. There is something I must tell you. All the money you have given tonight is going to a hedgehog hospital to look after sick hedgehogs.’Everyone clapped and nodded their heads. Everyone except Mr Peck. His face went bright red and he made a strange spluttering noise.‘Not only that,’ went on Amy, ‘but Mr Peck has agreed that for every pound that you give tonight, he will give another pound of his own money.Everyone clapped again and cheered. Mr Peck went a very pale colour. Somehow he managed a smile.Before he could say anything, Amy said,’ And I am happy to say that the hospital has asked me to take the money for them.’She held out her hand. Gloomily, Mr peck passed the box over to Amy.Then, an even gloomier look spread across his face as he dug into his pocket and pulled out two ten pound notes. ‘A big hand for Mr Peck,’ said Amy.This is not quite the end of the story. Amy felt rather sorry for Mr Peck.After she had sent the money to the hedgehog hospital, she asked the hedgehogs to patrol Mr Peck’s garden. She told them to make sure that no more of his vegetables were eaten by slugs.A few weeks later, Mr Peck won third prize for his marrows, runner beans and carrots at the local show.That evening he leaned over the fence to show Amy his three prizes.‘It’s all thanks to those hedgehogs,’ he said. ‘I wish I had known before how useful they are. I’ve bought them a present.’ He handed her one tin of dog food.‘I’ve just got some new books about hedgehogs in the library. I read that the y adore dog food,’ he explained.A group of hedgehogs were soon busy tucking in. Amy knelt down beside them.‘What are they saying?’ asked Mr Peck.‘Well,’ said Amy. ‘Hedgehogs are a bit hard to understand when they have their mouths full. But I think they are saying thanks for the dog food.’‘I should think so too,’ said Mr Peck. ‘I paid a lot of money for that tin. And could you teach them not to speak with their mouths full? It is so rude.’‘I’ll try,’ said Amy.She looked at the hedgehogs and smiled.It seemed to her that they smiled back.。

Someone who knows all about hedgehogs.’‘ That’ s good,said Mrs’ Harris.‘ You’ ll need to go the library and see if you can find some books. ’‘ Ohdear, Amy’ groaned.‘ I’ ll have to see Mr Peck.’Mr Peck was t he children’ s librarian. He was a mean and miserable sort of person. He alsolived next door to Amy.The library was almost empty when Amy arrived. She looked along the shelves, trying tofind a book on hedgehogs.‘ What are you doing?’ snapped a hindvoiceherbe.Amy nearly jumped out of her socks. It was Mr Peck.‘ I was looking for a book about animals.’‘ Animals, indeed,’ sniffed Mr Peck.‘ What sort of animals? Tame animals? Wild animals Animals from Africa? India? Britain?’‘ Hedgehogs,said’ Amy.‘ Hedgehogs!’ bawled Mr Peck.‘ The very worst animals there are. They dig up vegetablesand bite lumps out of them.’He pulled a book from the shelves.‘ If you must study the horrid things,this is the best I can do.’‘ Thank you, said Amy politely.‘ Makesure you bring it back on time. And don’yout dare bring hedgehogs into yourgarden. Your garden is next to mine, do n’ t forget. If I see a hedgehognear my carrots, do youknow what I am going to do?’‘ No,said’ Amy.‘ I’ m going to squirt it with my spray gun.’At home, Amy read the book on hedgehogs. She found out that they ate slugs and snails.The book didn’ t say anything about vegetables.The next day she took the book back to the library.‘ What’ s this?’ said Mr Peck.‘ This book is not due back for another twenty days.‘ But I’ ve read it,’ said Amy.‘ Have you got any more books about hedgehogs?‘ Over there,snapped’ Mr Peck, pointing with his nose.Amy walked slowly along the shelves. Where were the books about animals? She was justabout to risk asking Mr Peck, when she saw something. It was an old cassette tape, called‘ Calls of the Wild’ . It looked as if nobody had ever played it.Amy took it down from the shelf. It was part of a set of animal noises. This was tape number12 and it was called Hedgehogs.Amy asked Mr Peck if she could borrow the cassette.‘ Ofcourse you can,’he said rudely.‘ Thoughanybody who wants to listen to horridanimal noises must be mad.’He stamped the cassette box.‘ And don’ t forget to rewind the tape.’Hedgehog talkAmy sat in her room listening to the sounds of hedgehogs on her personal stereo, over andover again. Amy repeated the sounds herself.‘ I’ m talking hedgehog,’ thought Amy.‘ I wish I knew what I was saying. I really need a hedgehog to help me. I’ m sure there he’gardensone.inIf tI make hedgehog noises, perhaps itwill hear me.’Amy ran down into the garden and made hedgehog noises as loudly as she could.She stopped and listened, but no hedgehogs answered. Amy tried again. But only a catcame into the garden.‘ I’ m going to keep trying,said Amy.’ ‘ I’ m surecan doI it.’ At last she got cold and she went indoors.The next night Amy tried again. She tried every night for a week.‘ What are you doing out there? asked Mrs’Harris.‘ Wait and see,’ said Amy.Just then the door bell rang. It was Mr Peck. He stood at the door in his dressing gown.Amy noticed that his hair was wet.‘ Mrs Harris,’ said Mr Peck.‘ Every night when I have my bath I can hear a noise. It seems to be coming from your garden.’Amy giggled behind her hand.‘ Noise?’ said Mrs Harris.典范英语8-1刺猬女孩艾蜜‘ Some sort of animal,’ said Mr Peck.‘ I’ d put poison downThatif Iiswereth onlyyou.way to deal with animals.’As soon as Mr Peck had gone, Amy dashed out into the garden.‘ Mr Peck thought I was an animal,’ she said to herself.‘ I’ m going to try one more time.’Amy went down on her knees and began to make her hedgehog sounds again.Almost at once there was a rustling noise and a hedgehog lumbered onto the lawn. Amywas delighted. The hedgehog and Amy snorted and squeaked at each other.Suddenly a torch beam shone in their eyes.‘ What’ s going on?’ said a voice. It was Mr Peck, still in his dressing gown. The hedgehog rolled into a ball.‘ I’ m chatting to a hedgehog,’ said Amy.‘ You cheeky young thing. Talking to hedgehogs indeed.’‘ Excuse me—began’ Amy.‘ And what’ s more,Mr Peck’ cut in,‘ hedgehogs are dirty little beasts and they eat up allthe vegetables in my garden.’‘ Rubbish! said’ Amy crossly.‘ Hedgehogsare not dirty. And they don’eat vegetables.They eat slugs and snails. Now, if you don ’ t mind, I was talking to a hedgehog.’Mr Peck was too shocked to answer. His mouth dropped open as Amy snorted gently tothe hedgehog. Slowly it unrolled.A sly look crept across Mr Peck’ s face.‘ How often have you been doing this,my dear?’ he asked.‘ Never before,’ said Amy.‘ But from now on, I’ ll be every night.’‘ Hm,’ said Mr Peck.‘ You’ re going to be here every night, you say.’The amazing hedgehog girlWhen Amy came home from school the next day, Mr Peck was in his front drive. He wasfixing a large board to the gate. As soon as he saw Amy, he threw his coat over it.Amy had promised to show her mum the hedgehog. It was getting dark when they steppedinto the garden to see her hedgehog friend.Amy went down on her knees and began to snort. This time two hedgehogs came up to her.‘ What are you talking about?’ whispered Mrs Harris.‘ Slugs.’There was a sound from next door. Amy shone her torch towards the fence. There werepeople staring into her garden. They all had their mouths open.One person stood out. It was Mr Peck.‘ I’ ve asked a few friends over,’ he said smoothly.‘ I hope you don’ t mind.Amy was cross, but she also felt rather proud that so many people had come to see her.‘ You may watch. But please don’ t talk or make a noise. And no photos.’The people nodded.Amy went down on her knees and snorted once more.This time three more hedgehogs came up. Amy managed to tell the hedgehogs that theyhad nothing to fear. The people just wanted to see how clever they were. Amy and the hedgehogs talked and played together.As soon as the hedgehogs had gone, the people behind the fence began to clap and cheer.Of course they wanted to know what Amy and the hedgehogs had been talking about.‘ Theytold me about their young. Then they told me why they curl up into a ball. And whereto find the tastiest grubs. Oh, and they told me where they are going to sleep for the winter. ’Mrs Harris hugged Amy.‘ You were fantastic,’ she said.‘ Come in and I’ ll make you a nice hot drink.‘ Yes. In you go,’ said Mr Peck cheerily.‘ I’ m sure you must be very tired.There was something strange about Mr Peck. He had never said anything kind to Amybefore. Then she heard an odd noise. It was the sound of coins being dropped into a box.‘ It was worth a pound of anybody’ s money,’ she heard someone say.‘ Ssh,’ said Mr Peck.Then Amy remembered the board that Mr Peck had been fixing to his front gate. Whyhad Mr Peck tried to hide it? Amy rushed round to the front of the house. There on the board inlarge letters it said: ‘ What a nerve, ’ said Amy. Then a smile crept across her face. to fix you,Mr Peck. ’She raced round to Mr Peck’ s garden. Some of the people were still enjoying a cup of teaand biscuits.Before Mr Peck could stop her, she said, Ladies’ and gentlemen. There is something Imust tell you. All the money you have given tonight is going to a hedgehog hospital to lookafter sick hedgehogs.’Everyone clapped and nodded their heads. Everyone except Mr Peck. His face went brightred and he made a strange spluttering noise.‘ Not only that,’ went on Amy,‘ but Mr Peck has agreed that for every pound that you give tonight, he will give another pound of his own money.典范英语8-1 刺猬女孩艾蜜Everyone clapped again and cheered. Mr Peck went a very pale colour. Somehow hemanaged a smile.Before he could say anything, Amy said, And’ I am happy to say that the hospital hasasked me to take the money for them.’She held out her hand. Gloomily, Mr peck passed the box over to Amy.Then, an even gloomier look spread across his face as he dug into his pocket and pulledout two ten pound notes.‘ A big hand for Mr Peck,’ said Amy.This is not quite the end of the story. Amy felt rather sorry for Mr Peck.After she had sent the money to the hedgehog hospital, she asked the hedgehogs to patrolMr Peck ’ s garden. She told them to make sure that no more of his vegetables were eaten byslugs.A few weeks later, Mr Peck won third prize for his marrows, runner beans and carrots atthe local show.That evening he leaned over the fence to show Amy his three prizes.‘ It’ s all thanks to those hedgehogs,’ he said.‘ I wish I had known before how usef are. I’ ve bought them a present.’ He handed her one tin of dog food.‘ I’ ve just got some new books about hedgehogs in the library. I read that they adore dogfood, ’ he explained.A group of hedgehogs were soon busy tucking in. Amy knelt down beside them.‘ What are they saying?’ asked Mr Peck.‘ Well,’ said Amy.‘ Hedgehogs are a bit hard to understand when they have their mouthsfull. But I think the y are saying thanks for the dog food.’‘ I should think so too,’ said Mr Peck.‘ I paid a lot of money for that tin. And could you teach them not to speak with their mouths full? It is so rude.’‘ I’ ll try,’ said Amy.She looked at the hedgehogs and smiled.It seemed to her that they smiled back.。

Amy the Hedgehogs GirlMiserable Mr PeckHer mum was in the kitchen when Amy rushed in.‘How was school?’ asked Mrs Harris, expecting the usual answer, ‘OK.’‘It was great,’cried Amy. ‘A lady gave us a talk on wildlife and she showed us a hedgehog expert.’‘A what?’ said Mrs Harris.‘A hedgehog expert. Someone who knows all about hedgehogs.’‘That’s good,’said Mrs Harris. ‘You’ll need to go the library and see if you can find some books.’‘Oh dear,’Amy groaned. ‘I’ll have to see Mr Peck.’Mr Peck was t he children’s librarian. He was a mean and miserable sort of person. He also lived next door to Amy.The library was almost empty when Amy arrived. She looked along the shelves, trying to find a book on hedgehogs.‘What are you doing?’ snapped a voice be hind her.Amy nearly jumped out of her socks. It was Mr Peck.‘I was looking for a book about animals.’‘Animals, indeed,’ sniffed Mr Peck. ‘What sort of animals? Tame animals? Wild animals? Animals from Africa? India? Britain?’‘Hedgehogs,’ said Amy.‘Hedgehogs!’ bawled Mr Peck. ‘The very worst animals there are. They dig up vegetables and bite lumps out of them.’He pulled a book from the shelves.‘If you must study the horrid things,this is the best I can do.’‘Thank you, said Amy politely.‘Make sure you bring it back on time. And don’t you dare bring hedgehogs into your garden. Your garden is next to mine, do n’t forget. If I see a hedgehog near my carrots, do you know what I am going to do?’‘No,’ said Amy.‘I’m going to squirt it with my spray gun.’At home, Amy read the book on hedgehogs. She found out that they ate slugs and snails. The book didn’t say anything about vegetables.The next day she took the book back to the library.‘What’s this?’ said Mr Peck. ‘This book is not due back for another twenty days.’‘But I’ve read it,’ said Amy. ‘Have you got any more books about hedgehogs?’‘Over there,’ snapped Mr Peck, pointing with his nose.Amy walked slowly along the shelves. Where were the books about animals? She was just about to risk asking Mr Peck, when she saw something. It was an old cassette tape, called ‘Calls of the Wild’. It looked as if nobody had ever played it.Amy took it down from the shelf. It was part of a set of animal noises. This was tape number 12 and it was called Hedgehogs.Amy asked Mr Peck if she could borrow the cassette.‘Of course you can,’ he said rudely. ‘Though anybody who wants to listen to horrid animal noises must be mad.’He stamped the cassette box.‘And don’t forget to rewind the tape.’Hedgehog talkAmy sat in her room listening to the sounds of hedgehogs on her personal stereo, over and over again. Amy repeated the sounds herself.‘I’m talking hedgehog,’ thought Amy. ‘I wish I knew what I was saying. I really need a hedgehog to help me. I’m sure there’s one in t he garden. If I make hedgehog noises, perhaps it will hear me.’Amy ran down into the garden and made hedgehog noises as loudly as she could.She stopped and listened, but no hedgehogs answered. Amy tried again. But only a cat came into the garden.‘I’m going to keep trying,’said Amy. ‘I’m sure I can do it.’ At last she got cold and she went indoors.The next night Amy tried again. She tried every night for a week.‘What are you doing out there?’ asked Mrs Harris.‘Wait and see,’ said Amy.Just then the door bell rang. It was Mr Peck. He stood at the door in his dressing gown. Amy noticed that his hair was wet.‘Mrs Harris,’ said Mr Peck. ‘Every night when I have my bath I can hear a noise. It seems to be coming from your garden.’Amy giggled behind her hand.‘Noise?’ said Mrs Harris.‘Some sort of animal,’ said Mr Peck. ‘I’d put poison down if I were you. That is the only way to deal with animals.’As soon as Mr Peck had gone, Amy dashed out into the garden. ‘Mr Peck thought I was an animal,’ she said to herself. ‘I’m going to try one more time.’Amy went down on her knees and began to make her hedgehog sounds again.Almost at once there was a rustling noise and a hedgehog lumbered onto the lawn. Amy was delighted. The hedgehog and Amy snorted and squeaked at each other.Suddenly a torch beam shone in their eyes.‘What’s going on?’ said a voice. It was Mr Peck, still in his dressing gown. The hedgehog rolled into a ball.‘I’m chatting to a hedgehog,’ said Amy.‘You cheeky young thing. Talking to hedgehogs indeed.’‘Excuse me—’ began Amy.‘And what’s more,’Mr Peck cut in, ‘hedgehogs are dirty little beasts and they eat up all the vegetables in my garden.’‘Rubbish!’ said Amy crossly. ‘Hedgehogs are not dirty. And they don’t eat vegetables. They eat slugs and snails. Now, if you don’t mind, I was talking to a hedgehog.’Mr Peck was too shocked to answer. His mouth dropped open as Amy snorted gently to the hedgehog. Slowly it unrolled.A sly look crept across Mr Peck’s face.‘How often have you been doing this,my dear?’ he asked.‘Never before,’ said Amy. ‘But from now on, I’ll be every night.’‘Hm,’ said Mr Peck. ‘You’re going to be here every night, you say.’The amazing hedgehog girlWhen Amy came home from school the next day, Mr Peck was in his front drive. He was fixing a large board to the gate. As soon as he saw Amy, he threw his coat over it.Amy had promised to show her mum the hedgehog. It was getting dark when they stepped into the garden to see her hedgehog friend.Amy went down on her knees and began to snort. This time two hedgehogs came up to her.‘What are you talking about?’ whispered Mrs Harris.‘Slugs.’There was a sound from next door. Amy shone her torch towards the fence. There were people staring into her garden. They all had their mouths open.One person stood out. It was Mr Peck.‘I’ve asked a few friends over,’ he said smoothly. ‘I hope you don’t mind.’Amy was cross, but she also felt rather proud that so many people had come to see her. ‘You may wat c h. But please don’t talk or make a noise. And no photos.’The people nodded.Amy went down on her knees and snorted once more.This time three more hedgehogs came up. Amy managed to tell the hedgehogs that they had nothing to fear. The people just wanted to see how clever they were. Amy and the hedgehogs talked and played together.As soon as the hedgehogs had gone, the people behind the fence began to clap and cheer. Of course they wanted to know what Amy and the hedgehogs had been talking about.‘They told me about their young. Then they to ld me why they curl up into a ball. And where to find the tastiest grubs. Oh, and they told me where they are going to sleep for the winter.’Mrs Harris hugged Amy.‘You were fantastic,’ she said. ‘Come in and I’ll make you a nice hot drink.’‘Yes. In you go,’ said Mr Peck cheerily. ‘I’m sure you must be very tired.’There was something strange about Mr Peck. He had never said anything kind to Amy before. Then she heard an odd noise. It was the sound of coins being dropped into a box.‘It was worth a pound of anybody’s money,’ she heard someone say.‘Ssh,’ said Mr Peck.Then Amy remembered the board that Mr Peck had been fixing to his front gate. Why had Mr Peck tried to hide it? Amy rushed round to the front of the house. There on the board in large letters it said: ‘What a nerve,’ said Amy. Then a smile crept across her face. ‘I know how to fix you, Mr Peck.’She raced round to Mr Peck’s garden. Some of the people were still enjoying a cup of tea and biscuits.Before Mr Peck could stop her, she said,’Ladies and gentlemen. There is something I must tell you. All the money you have given tonight is going to a hedgehog hospital to look after sick hedgehogs.’Everyone clapped and nodded their heads. Everyone except Mr Peck. His face went bright red and he made a strange spluttering noise.‘Not only that,’ went on Amy, ‘but Mr Peck has agreed that for every pound that you give tonight, he will give another pound of his own money.Everyone clapped again and cheered. Mr Peck went a very pale colour. Somehow he managed a smile.Before he could say anything, Amy said,’ And I am happy to say that the hospital has asked me to take the money for them.’She held out her hand. Gloomily, Mr peck passed the box over to Amy.Then, an even gloomier look spread across his face as he dug into his pocket and pulled out two ten pound notes. ‘A big hand for Mr Peck,’ said Amy.This is not quite the end of the story. Amy felt rather sorry for Mr Peck.After she had sent the money to the hedgehog hospital, she asked the hedgehogs to patrol Mr Peck’s garden. She told them to make sure that no more of his vegetables were eaten by slugs.A few weeks later, Mr Peck won third prize for his marrows, runner beans and carrots at the local show.That evening he leaned over the fence to show Amy his three prizes.‘It’s all thanks to those hedgehogs,’ he said. ‘I wish I had known before how useful they are.

Mr Such was their teacher andhe wore the same trousers to school, day in and day out.‘They're so crumpled and baggy, 'Janey said.‘And grubby and thick, 'said Derek.‘Like a pair of old dish-cloths. '‘And he wears them all the time. '‘Idon 'tthink he 'sgot any others.'‘Old Baggy-Pants, that'swhat he is,'Derek added,sticking his fork into his jam roly-poly.‘Iwish he 'd get some new ones,'Janey sighed.At that moment Old Baggy-pants himself came into the hall. Janey 'smouth fell open and Derek could see the mashed upjam roly-poly inside.‘What 's up?'he said.Janey blinked and pointed. There was Mr Such in a brand new suit.A spotless white suit without a crease in it. Everyonein the hall stopped eating and stared at him.‘Carry on,everyone,'said Mr Such, a bit red in the face.‘Carry on eating.'‘Wow! 'said Derek, leaning across his plate.‘He looks so different. '‘He looks smart,'said Janey firmly.‘And about time, too. ' Later that afternoon Janey 's class trooped back into the hall for P .E.‘Ilike the suit, sir, 'Janey told Mr Such as they filed in.‘Thank you, Janey. It'sfor Parents'Evening, really.'‘Parents'Evening?'‘Yes, I have to look my best for that, don 'tI? '‘But that 'snot till Monday, Mr Such, 'Derek said.‘Iknown that, Derek. I 'm just getting used to it. 'While they were talking. Mrs Venn came out of the kitchen with a bowl of custard in her arms.She was so shocked to see Mr Such in his bright new suit she gave a little jump.'Oh my gosh!'she cried. She grabbed one of the hall curtains to steady herself. The custard looped into the air, straight for Mr Such.Derek saw it coming and stepped smartly in the way. The custard wobbled through the air and flopped againstDerek;s vest. Everyone fell silent. Derek stood there, looking sad and stunned. And covered in cold custard.‘Well done, Derek, 'said Mr Such.‘You'd saved my brand new suit. ' Derek tried to smile but by then the custard was oozing into his shorts. After break, Mr Such changed back into his dish-cloth trousers.‘Please keep clear of this,'he said, hanging his new suit on the cupboard door.‘Keep well clear.'A Lovely green colourThe last lesson of the day was art. They had to paint interesting faces. Janey was doing a monster. She put blood-shot bits in his eyes, a bolt through his neck and green stuff coming out of his nose. She was pleased with the green sthff,but she'd mixed up too much. She asked Derek if he wanted some.‘Idon 'tneed any green stuff, Janey,'he said .‘I'm doing a footballer. '‘Well, he could have green stuff coming out of his nose, couldn'the?'she said.‘No,'said Derek. 'He couldn't.'‘You'd could use it for the background. Like grass. 'Mr Such4-----Princess Pip' s Holiday1 Ready to goEveryone in Princess Pip 's castlewas very busy. The King was polishing his money, the Queen was choosing sunhats, and the maids were running around with piles of vests.“Can I take Dobbin on holiday?”asked Princess Pip.“I 'm afraidthere won 't be roomfor a pony on the coach , ”said the Queen.“Oh, ”said the Princess Pip.“Can Amanda and Bert come,then?”“There ‘s no room for snakes,”said the King,“not even pet ones.”Princess Pip scowled .“This holiday is going to be BORING,”she said.They went on holiday in their best gold coach.“Wave toall the people, dear,”said the Queen.Princess Pip folded her arms .“I‘m on holiday,”she said.“Are we nearly there yet?”“We won't be there for a long time,”said the Queen. firmlyIt did take a long time to get to the seaside . The coach got very hot, and Princess Pip didn't feel very well.“Here we are,at last!”said the King happily.“But it's a castle!”said Princess Pip.“Just like home.It's BORING.”2 Just like home There was a girl waiting by the castle door.“This is Daisy,”said the Queen.“She is going to ylooku,Pipafter.”Daisy showed Princess Pip her room.“I don 't want a four-poster bed! ”said Princess Pip.“That's just like home.”“You can sleep on my straw mattress, then,”said Daisy.“I 'll have the bed.”“Oh, all right.”said Princess Pip.That evening there was a banquet and it went on for hours.“More sprouts? ”asked the King happilyThis. is BORING, ”said the Princess Pip.“Nonsense(胡说),dear,”said the Queen.“It can't be boring.

Amy the Hedgehogs GirlMiserable Mr PeckHer mum was in the kitchen when Amy rushed in。
‘How was school?’ asked Mrs Harris,expecting the usual answer, ‘OK.'‘It was great,’cried Amy. ‘A lady gave us a talk on wildlife and she showed us a hedgehog expert。
’‘A what?' said Mrs Harris.‘A hedgehog expert. Someone who knows all about hedgehogs。
’‘That's good,’said Mrs Harris。
‘You'll need to go the library and see if you can find some books。
'‘Oh dear,’Amy groaned. ‘I’ll have to see Mr Peck.’Mr Peck was the children’s librarian. He was a mean and miserable sort of person。
He also lived next door to Amy。
The library was almost empty when Amy arrived. She looked along the shelves, trying to find a book on hedgehogs。

Someone who knows all about hedgehogs.’‘That’s good,’said Mrs Harris. ‘You’ll need to go the library and see if you can find some books.’‘Oh dear,’Amy groaned. ‘I’ll have to see Mr Peck.’Mr Peck was the children’s librarian. He was a mean and miserable sort of person. He also lived next door to Amy.The library was almost empty when Amy arrived. She looked along the shelves, trying to find a book on hedgehogs.‘What are you doing?’ snapped a voice behind her.Amy nearly jumped out of her socks. It was Mr Peck.‘I was looking for a book about animals.’‘Animals , indeed,’ sniffed Mr Peck. ‘What sort of animals Tame animals Wild animals Animals from Africa India Britain’‘Hedgehogs,’said Amy.‘Hedgehogs!’ bawled Mr Peck. ‘The very worst animals there are. They dig up vegetables and bite lumps out of them.’He pulled a book from the shelves.‘If you must study the horrid things,this is the best I can do.’‘Thank you, said Amy politely.‘Make sure you bring it back on time. And don’t you dare bring hedgehogs into your garden. Your garden is next to mine, don’t forget. If I see a hedgehogs near my carrots, do you know what I am going to do?’‘No,’said Amy.‘I’m going to squirt it with my spray gun.’At home, Amy read the book on hedgehogs. She found out that they ate slugs and snails. The book didn’t say anything about vegetables.The next day she took the book back to the library.‘What’s this?’ said Mr Peck. ‘This book is not due back for another twenty days.’‘But I’ve read it,’ said Amy. ‘Have you got any more books about hedgehogs’‘Over there,’snapped Mr Peck,pointing with his nose.Amy walked slowly along the shelves. Where were the books about animals She was just about to rist asking Mr Peck, when she saw something. It was an old cassette tape, called ‘Calls of the Wild’. It looked as if nobody had ever played it.Amy took it down from the shelf. It was part of a set of animal noises. This was tape number 12 and it was called Hedgehogs.Amy asked Mr Peck if she could borrow the cassette.‘Of course you can,’ he said rudely. ‘Though anybody who wants to listen to horrid animal noises must be mad.’He stamped the cassette box.‘And don’t forget to rewind the tape.’Hedgehog talkAmy sat in her room listening to the sounds of hedgehogs on her personal stereo, over and over again. Amy repeated the sounds herself.‘I’m talking hedgehog,’ thought Amy. ‘I wish I knew what I was saying. I really need a hedgehog to help me. I’m sure there’s one in the garden. If I make hedgehog noises, perhaps it will hear me.’Amy ran down into the garden and made hedgehog noises as loudly as she could.She stopped and listened,but no hedgehogs answered. Amy tried again. Bnt only a cat came into the garden.‘I’m going to keep trying,’said Amy. ‘I’m sure Ican do it.’ At last she got cold and she went indoors.The next night Amy tried again. She tried every night for a week.‘What are you doing out there?’asked Mrs Harris.‘Wait and see,’ said Amy.Just then the door bell rang. It was Mr Peck. He stood at the door in his dressing gown. Amy noticed that his hair was wet.‘Mrs Harris,’ said Mr Peck. ‘Every night when I have my bath I can hear a noise. It seems to be coming from your garden.’Amy giggled behind her hand.‘Noise?’ said Mrs Harris.‘Some sort of animal,’ said Mr Peck. ‘I’d put poison down if I were you.That is the only way to deal with animals.’As soon as Mr Peck had gone,Amy dashed out into the garden. ‘Mr Peck thought I was an animal,’ she said to herself. ‘I’m going to try one more time.’Amy went down on her knees and began to make her hedgehog sounds again.Almost at once there was a rustling noise and a hedgehog lumbered onto the lawn. Amy was delighted. The hedgehog and Amy snorted and squeaked at each other.Suddenly a torch beam shone in their eyes.‘What’s going on?’ said a voice. It was Mr Peck, still in his dressing gown. The hedgehog rolled into a ball.‘I’m chatting to a hedgehog,’ said Amy.‘You cheeky young thing. Talking to hedgehogs indeed.’‘Excuse me—‘ began Amy.‘And what’s more,’Mr Peck cut in, ‘hedgehogs are dirty little beasts and they eat up all the vegetables in my garden.’‘Rubbish!’ said Amy crossly. ‘Hedgehogs are not dirty. And they don’t eat vegetables. They eat slugs and snails. Now,if you don’t mind, I was talking to a hedgehog.’Mr Peck was too shocked to answer. His mouth dropped open as Amy snorted gently to the hedgehog. Slowly it unrolled.A sly look crept across Mr Peck’s face.‘How often have you been doing this, my dear?’ he asked.‘Never before,’ said Amy. ‘But from now on, I’ll be every night.’‘Hm,’ said Mr Peck. ‘You’re going to be here every night, you say.’The amazing hedgehog girlWhen Amy came home from school the next day,Mr Peck was in his front drive. He was fixing a large board to the gate. As soon as he saw Amy, he throw his coat over it.Amy had promised to show her mum the hedgehog. It was getting dark when they stepped into the garden to see her hedgehog friend.Amy went down on her knees and began to snort. This time two hedgehogs came up to her.‘What are you talking about?’ whispered Mrs Harris.‘Slugs.’There was a sound from next door. Amy shone her torch towards the fence. There were people staring into her garden. They all had their mouths open.One person stood out. It was Mr Peck.‘I’ve asked a few friends over,’ he said smoothly. ‘I hope you don’t mind.’Amy was cross, but she also felt rather proud that so many people had come to see her. ‘You may wath. But please don’t talk or make a noise. And no photos.’The people nodded.Amy went down on her knees and snorted once moer.This time three more hedgehogs came up. Amy managed to tell the hedgehogs that they had nothing to fear. The people just wanted to see how clever they were. Amy and the hedgehogs talked and played together.As soon as the hedgehogs had gone, the people behind the fence began to clap and cheer. Of course they wanted to know what Amy and the hedgehogs had been talking about.‘They told me about their young. Then they told me why they curl up into a ball. And where to find the tastiest grubs. Oh,and they told me where they are going to sleep for the winter.’Mrs Harris hugged Amy.‘You were fantastic,’ she said. ‘Come in and I’ll make you a nice hot drink.’‘Yes. In you go,’ said Mr Peck cheerily. ‘I’m sure you must be very tired.’There was something strange about Mr Peck. He had never said anything kind to Amy before. Then she heard an odd noise. It was the sound of coins being dropped into a box.‘It was worth a pound of anybody’s money,’ she heard someone say.‘Ssh,’ said Mr Peck.Then Amy remembered the board that Mr Peck had been fixing to his front gate. Why had Mr Peck tried to hide it Amy rushed round to the front of the house. There on the board in large letters it said: ‘What a nerve,’ said Amy. Then a smile crept across her face. ‘I know how to fix you,Mr Peck.’She raced round to Mr Peck’s garden. Some of the people were still enjoying a cup of tea and biscuits.Before Mr Peck could stop her, she said,’Ladies and gentlemen. There is something I must tell you. All the money you have given tonight is going to a hedgehog hospital to look after sick hedgehogs.’Everyone clapped and nodded their heads. Everyone except Mr Peck. His face went bright red and he made a strange spluttering noise.‘Not only that,’ went on Amy, ‘but Mr Peck has agreed that for every pound that you give tonight, he will give another pound of his own money.’Everyone clapped again and cheered. Mr Peck went a very pale colour. Somehow he managed a smile.Before he could say anything, Amy said,’ And I am happy to say that the hospital has asked me to take the money for them.’She held out her hand. Gloomily, Mr peck passed the box over to Amy.Then, an even gloomier look spread across his face as he dug into his pocket and pulled out two ten pound notes.‘A big hand for Mr Peck,’ said Amy.This is not quite the end of the story. Amy felt rather sorry for Mr Peck.After she had sent the money to the hedgehog hospital, she asked the hedgehogs to patrol Mr Peck’s garden. She told them to make sure that no more of his vegetables were eaten by slugs.A few weeks later, Mr Peck won third prize for his marrows, runner beans and carrots at the local show. That evening he leaned over the fence to show Amy his three prizes.‘It’s all thanks to those hedgehogs,’ he said. ‘I wish I had known before how useful they are. I’ve bought them a present.’He handed her one tin of dog food.‘I’ve just got some new books about hedgehogs in the library. I read that they abore dog food,’ he explained.A group of hedgehogs were soon busy tucking in. Amy knelt down beside them.‘What are they saying?’ asked Mr Peck.‘Well,’ said Amy. ‘Hedgehogs are a bit hard to understand when they have their mouthsfull. But I think they are saying thanks for the dog food.’‘I should think so too,’ said Mr Peck. ‘I paid a lot of money for that tin. And could you teach them not to speak with their mouths fullIt is so rude.’‘I’ll try,’ said Amy.She looked at the hedgehogs and smiled.It seemed to her that they smiled back.Coming CleanOld Baggy-PantsDerek and Janey were eating jam roly-poly in the hall and talking about Mr Such’s trousers. Mr Such was their teacher and he wore the same trousers to school, day in and day out.‘They’re so crumpled and baggy,’ Janey said.‘And grubby and thick,’ said Derek.‘Like a pair of old dish-cloths.’‘And he wears them all the time.’‘I don’t think he’s got any others.’‘Old Baggy-Pants, that’s what he is,’ Derek added,sticking his fork into his jam roly-poly.‘I wish he’d get some new ones,’ Janey sighed.At that moment Old Baggy-pants himself came into the hall. Janey’s mouth fell open and Derek could see the mashed up jam roly-poly inside.‘What’s up?’ he said.Janey blinked and pointed. There was Mr Such in a brand new suit. A spotless white suit without a crease in it. Everyone in the hall stopped eating and stared at him.‘Carry on,everyone,’ said Mr Such, a bit red in the face. ‘Carry on eating.’‘Wow!’said Derek, leaning across his plate. ‘He looks so different.’‘He looks smart,’ said Janey firmly. ‘And about time, too.’Later that afternoon Janey’s class trooped back into the hall for P.E.‘I like the suit, sir,’ Janey told Mr Such as they filed in.‘Thank you, Janey. It’s for Parents’ Evening, really.’‘ Parents’ Evening?’‘Yes, I have to look my best for that, don’t I?’‘But that’s not till Monday, Mr Such,’ Derek said.‘I known that, Derek. I’m just getting used to it.’While they were talking. Mrs Venn came out of the kitchen with a bowl of custard in her arms.She was so shocked to see Mr Such in his bright new suit she gave a little jump. ’Oh my gosh!’ she cried. She grabbed one of the hall curtains to steady herself. The custard looped into the air, straight for Mr Such.Derek saw it coming and stepped smartly in the way. The custard wobbled through the air and flopped against Derek;s vest. Everyone fell silent. Derek stood there, looking sad and stunned. And covered in cold custard.‘Well done, Derek,’ said Mr Such. ‘You’d saved my brand new suit.’Derek tried to smile but by then the custard was oozing into his shorts.After break, Mr Such changed back into his dish-cloth trousers.‘Please keep clear of this,’ he said, hanging his new suit on the cupboard door. ‘Keep well clear.’A Lovely green colourThe last lesson of the day was art. They had to paint interesting faces. Janey was doing a monster. She put blood-shot bits in his eyes, a bolt through his neck and green stuff coming out of his nose. She was pleased with the green sthff, but she’d mixed up too much. She asked Derek if he wanted some.‘I don’t need any green stuff, Janey,’ he said . ‘I’m doing a footballer.’‘Well, he could have green stuff coming out of his nose, couldn’t he?’ she said.‘No,’said Derek. ’He couldn’t.’‘You’d could use it for the background. Like grass.’ Mr SuchPrincess Pip’s Holiday1 Ready to goEveryone in Princess Pip’s castle was very busy. The King was polishing his money, the Queen was choosing sun hats, and the maids were running around with piles of vests.“ Can I take Dobbin on holiday”asked Princess Pip.“I’m afraid there won’t be room for a pony on the coach ,”said the Quee n.“Oh, ”said the Princess Pip. “Can Amanda and Bert come,then”“There ‘s no room for snakes,”said the King, “not even pet ones.”Princess Pip scowled . “This holiday is going to be BORING,” she said.They went on holiday in their best gold coach.“Wave to all the people, dear,” said the Queen.Princess Pip folded her arms . “ I ‘m on holiday,” she said. “Are we nearly there yet”“We won’t be there for a long time,” said the Queen firmly .It did take a long time to get to the seaside . The coach got very hot, and Princess Pip didn’t feel very well.“Here we are,at last!” said the King happily.“But it’s a castle!” said Princess Pip. “Just like home.It’s BORING.”2 Just like homeThere was a girl waiting by the castle door.“This is Daisy,”said the Queen. “She is going to look after you,Pip.”Daisy showed Princess Pip her room.“I don’t want a four-poster bed!” said Princess Pip. “That’s just like home.”“You can sleep on my straw mattress, then,” said Daisy. “ I’ll have the bed.”“Oh, all right.”said Princess Pip.That evening there was a banquet and it went on for hours.“More sprouts”asked the King happily. This is BORING,”said the Princess Pip.“Nonsense(胡说),dear,”said the Queen. “It can’t be boring. We’re on holiday!”“ I WANT TO GO HOME!” said Princess Pip, the next day. She had been walking round the castle walls all morning and she hadn’t found anything to do.“But we’re having a wonderful time,” said the Queen,from her sun chair.“Just look at the way my money shines in the sun,” said the King. “Wonderful!”“ But it’s BORING!” said Princess Pip.“Why don’t you go and talk to Daisy”suggested the Queen.Princess Pip stomped off.“That does it,” she said to Daisy. “I WANT TO GO HOME!”3 The road home“If you stayed here a bit longer,you might start liking the seaside,” said Daisy.But Princess Pip wasn’t listening. She was putting all her important things in her suitcase.“I think we’ll have to take some things out,”said Daisy.Daisy found them both backpacks, and they set out for home.Princess Pip and Daisy went across the drawbridge and along the road.It was very hot.“Let’s have a nice,cool snack,”said Daisy.So they got some fish sticks from a stall.“These aren’t bad,” ad mitted Princess Pip.“They taste best by the seaside,” said Daisy. “ I’ll show you where the fish come from, if you like.”They went down some stone steps to a place where the sea swished backwards and forwards and the ground looked as if it was made of gold.“Look in these pools,” said Daisy.The fish were hard to catch.”You could take your stockings off,” said Daisy, “and use them for nets.”It was nice without shoes and stockings on. It was even nicer once Princess Pip had taken off her coat and crown.The fish looked very cross at being caught, so Princess Pip let them go.“It’s not too bad here,” said Princess Pip,at last. “ I want to stay here all the time.”“Let’s build a sandcastle, then,” said Daisy.“A sand HOUSE,” said Princes s Pip.It was hard work, but they built a huge house, with a moat all around.Soon the sea came in and filled the moat.“That’s just right.”said Princess Pip. “Make it stop coming in now,Daisy.”But the sea kept on coming in............ and soon it had washed their house FLAT.“ We built our house too close to the sea,”said Daisy, sadly.“STUPID SEA!”shouted Princess Pip. “STUPID SEASIDE! I WANT TO GO HOME!”4 Riding the dragonPrincess Pip and Daisy put on their shoes and picked up their backpacks.“I’m tired,”said Princess Pip, very soon. “ I want to ride Dobbin. Are we nearly home, yet”“Why don’t you ride one of the horses on that merry-go-round”suggested Daisy.“Oh, no,”said Princess Pip. “ I’m going to ride that dragon.”The dragon went very fast, and there was lots of exciting music--but then it all stopped. Everyone got off. “But....we’re still here!” said Princess Pip, crossly, as she got off ,too.“At least it wasn’t boring,” said Daisy.“I WANT TO GO HOME!” shout ed Princess Pip.“At least it was fun,” said Daisy. “Everything is fun here because it’s a FUN-fair.”Princess Pip sniffed. “ What’s fun about it”she asked.“I’ll show you,” said Daisy. They went down the roller coaster.Then they went UP and UP and ....DOWN again.“AARRRRGH!” yelled Princess Pip and Daisy.“Let’s go on it again,” said Princess Pip.“ Tomorrow, perhaps,” said Daisy, who had gone very pale.“BUT I WANT...” began Princess Pip.“Hello!” said a voice.It was the King. The Queen was with him.“Where’s Princess Pip”the King asked Daisy.“Here !” said Princess Pip.The King and the Queen stared at her.“You can’t be Pip!” the Queen gasped. “You’re all dirty,and you have no stockings!”“But I am!” said Princess Pip, and put on her crown to prove it. “Look! It’s me, and I’ve found a place where the ground is made of gold!Come and see.”Daisy and Princess Pip showed them the beach.“ Good heavens!”said the King. “How wonderful! It’s just the color of money.”“What a perfect place for my sun chair,”said the Queen.The beach was a perfect place for picnics and games, and races, too. Everyone loved it.Then one day the King said: “ What a pity we have to go home tomorrow.”Princess Pip scowled, and she said...“I don’t want to go home!!!”。

Amy the Hedgehogs GirlMiserable Mr PeckHer mum was in the kitchen when Amy rushed in.‘How was school?’ asked Mrs Harris, expecting the usual answer, ‘OK.’‘It was great,’cried Amy. ‘A lady gave us a talk on wildlife and she showed us a hedgehog expert.’‘A what?’ said Mrs Harris.‘A hedgehog expert. Someone who knows all about hedgehogs.’‘That’s good,’said Mrs Harris. ‘You’ll need to go the library and see if you can find some books.’‘Oh dear,’Amy groaned. ‘I’ll have to see Mr Peck.’Mr Peck was the children’s librarian. He was a mean and miserable sort of person. He also lived next door to Amy.The library was almost empty when Amy arrived. She looked along the shelves, trying to find a book on hedgehogs.‘What are you doing?’ snapped a voice behind her.Amy nearly jumped out of her socks. It was Mr Peck.‘I was looking for a book about animals.’‘Animals , indeed,’ sniffed Mr Peck. ‘What sort of animals? Tame animals? Wild animals? Animals from Africa? India?

Everyone in the hall stopped eating and stared at him.‘Carry on,everyone,’ said Mr Such, a bit red in the face. ‘Carry on eating.’‘Wow!’said Derek, leaning across his plate. ‘He looks so different.’‘He looks smart,’ said Janey firmly. ‘And about time, too.’Later that afternoon Janey’s class trooped back into the hall for .‘I like the suit, sir,’ Janey told Mr Such as they filed in.‘Thank you, Janey. It’s for Parents’ Evening, really.’‘ Parents’ Evening?’‘Yes, I have to look my best for that, don’t I?’‘But that’s not till Monday, Mr Such,’ Derek said.‘I known that, Derek. I’m just getting used to it.’While they were talking. Mrs Venn came out of the kitchen with a bowl of custard in her arms.She was so shocked to see Mr Such in his bright new suit she gave a little jump. ’Oh my gosh!’ she cried.She grabbed one of the hall curtains to steady herself. The custard looped into the air, straight for Mr Such.Derek saw it coming and stepped smartly in the way. The custard wobbled through the air and flopped against Derek;s vest. Everyone fell silent. Derek stood there, looking sad and stunned. And covered in cold custard.‘Well done, Derek,’ said Mr Such. ‘You’d saved my brand new suit.’Derek tried to smile but by then the custard was oozing into his shorts.After break, Mr Such changed back into his dish-cloth trousers.‘Please keep clear of this,’he said, hanging his new suit on the cupboard door. ‘Keep well clear.’A Lovely green colourThe last lesson of the day was art. They had to paint interesting faces. Janey was doing a monster.She put blood-shot bits in his eyes, a bolt through his neck and green stuff coming out of his nose. She was pleased with the green sthff, but she’d mixed up too much. She asked Derek if he wanted some.‘I don’t need any green stuff, Janey,’ he said . ‘I’m doing a footballer.’‘Well, he could have green stuff coming out of his nose, couldn’t he?’ she said.‘No,’said Derek. ’He couldn’t.’‘You’d could use it for the background. Like grass.’ Mr SuchPrincess Pip’s Holiday1 Ready to goEveryone in Princess Pip’s castle was very busy. The King was polishing his money, the Queen was choosing sun hats, and the maids were running around with piles of vests.“ Can I take Dobbin on holiday?”asked Princess Pip.“I’m afraid there won’t be room for a pony on the coach ,”said the Queen.“Oh, ”said the Princess Pip. “Can Amanda and Bert come,then?”“There ‘s no room for snakes,”said the King, “not even pet ones.”Princess Pip scowled . “This holiday is going to be BORING,” she said.They went on holiday in their best gold coach.“Wave to all the people, dear,” sai d the Queen.Princess Pip folded her arms . “ I ‘m on holiday,” she said. “Are we nearly there yet?”“We won’t be there for a long time,” said the Queen firmly .It did take a long time to get to the seaside . The coach got very hot, and Princess Pip didn’t feel very well.“Here we are,at last!” said the King happily.“But it’s a castle!” said Princess Pip. “Just like ’s BORING.”2 Just like homeThere was a girl waiting by the castle door.“This is Daisy,”said the Queen. “She is going to look after you,Pip.”Daisy showed Princess Pip her room.“I don’t want a four-poster bed!” said Princess Pip. “That’s just like home.”“You can sleep on my straw mattress, then,” said Daisy. “ I’ll have the bed.”“Oh, all right.”said Princess Pip.That evening there was a banquet and it went on for hours.“More sprouts?”asked the King happily.This is BORING,”said the Princess Pip.“Nonsense(胡说),dear,”said the Queen. “It can’t be boring. We’re on holiday!”“ I WANT TO GO HOME!” said Princess P ip, the next day. She had been walking round the castle walls all morning and she hadn’t found anything to do.“But we’re having a wonderful time,” said the Queen,from her sun chair.“Just look at the way my money shines in the sun,” said the King. “Wonderful!”“ But it’s BORING!” said Princess Pip.“Why don’t you go and talk to Daisy?” suggested the Queen.Princess Pip stomped off.“That does it,” she said to Daisy. “I WANT TO GO HOME!”3 The road home“If you stayed here a bit longer,you might start liking the seaside,” said Daisy.But Princess Pip wasn’t listening. She was putting all her important things in her suitcase.“I think we’ll have to take some things out,”said Daisy.Daisy found them both backpacks, and they set out for home.Princess Pip and Daisy went across the drawbridge and along the road.It was very hot.“Let’s have a nice,cool snack,”said Daisy.So they got some fish sticks from a stall.“These aren’t bad,” admitted Princess Pip.“They taste best by the seaside,” said Daisy. “ I’ll show you where the fish come from, if you like.”They went down some stone steps to a place where the sea swished backwards and forwards and the ground looked as if it was made of gold.“Look in these pools,” said Daisy.The fish were hard to catch.”You could take your stockings off,” said Daisy, “and use them for nets.”It was nice without shoes and stockings on. It was even nicer once Princess Pip had taken off her coat and crown.The fish looked very cross at being caught, so Princess Pip let them go.“It’s not too bad here,” said Princess Pip,at last. “ I want to stay here all the time.”“Let’s build a sandcastle, then,” said Daisy.“A sand HOUSE,” said Princess Pip.It was hard work, but they built a huge house, with a moat all around.Soon the sea came in and filled the moat.“That’s just right.”said Princess Pip. “Make it stop coming in now,Daisy.”But the sea kept on coming in............ and soon it had washed their house FLAT.“ We built our house too close to the sea,”said Daisy, sadly.“STUPID SEA!”shouted Princess Pip. “STUPID SEASIDE! I WANT TO GO HOME!”4 Riding the dragonPrincess Pip and Daisy put on their shoes and picked up their backpacks.“I’m tired,”said Princess Pip, very soon. “ I want to ride Dobbin. Are we nearly home, yet?”“Why don’t you ride one of the horses on that merry-go-round?” suggested Daisy.“Oh, no,”said Princess Pip. “ I’m going to ride that dragon.”The dragon went very fast, and there was lots of exciting music--but then it all stopped. Everyone got off. “But....we’re still here!” said Princess Pip, crossly, as she got off ,too.“At least it wasn’t boring,” said Daisy.“I WANT TO GO HOME!” shouted Princess Pip.“At least it was fun,” said Daisy. “Everything is fun here because it’s a FUN-fair.”Princess Pip sniffed. “ What’s fun about it?” she asked.“I’ll show you,” said Daisy. They went down the roller coaster.Then they went UP and UP and ....DOWN again.“AARRRRGH!” yelled Princess Pip and Daisy.“Let’s go on it again,” said Princess Pip.“ Tomorrow, perhaps,” said Daisy, who had gone very pale.“BUT I WANT...” began Princess Pip.“Hello!” said a voice.It was the King. The Queen was with him.“Where’s Princess Pip?” the King asked Daisy.“Here !” said Princess Pip.The King and the Queen stared at her.“You can’t be Pip!” the Queen gasped. “You’re all dirty,and you have no stockings!”“But I am!” said Princess Pip, and put on her crown to prove it. “Look! It’s me, and I’ve found a place where the ground is made of gold!Come and see.”Daisy and Princess Pip showed them the beach.“ Good heavens!”said the King. “How wonderful! It’s just the color of money.”“What a perfect place for my sun chair,”said the Quee n.The beach was a perfect place for picnics and games, and races, too. Everyone loved it. Then one day the King said: “ What a pity we have to go home tomorrow.”Princess Pip scowled, and she said...“I don’t want to go home!!!”。
