漫長的一整夜，他都清醒的躺在枕頭上，計畫著和朋友去郊遊。
「當然，我明天得提早完成工作，」他對小老鼠說。「還要記得帶傘。」
AMOS MCGEE WAS TOO EXCITED TO SLEEP.
All night long he lay awake on his pillow, planning an outing for his friends.
“Of course, I’ll have to finish chores early tomorrow,” he said to a little mouse. “And I must remember the umbrellas.”
 
麥基先生遲到了。
Amos McGee arrived late for work.

「希望你沒有生氣，」他向大象道歉。
“I hope you are not upset,” he apologized to the elephant.
