Hanhao Bird

傳說中，有一種動物名叫“寒號鳥”，它得過且過，不肯蓋窩，結果凍死了。人們用這個故事教育孩子們要勤勞自勉，不要荒廢大好時光。這不，江蘇省常熟市大義中心小學的師生們將“寒號鳥”的故事改編后搬上了舞臺，一起去看看吧。

It is a sunny day in autumn. There is a beautiful forest，and a flock of birds live in it. Listen! A bird is singing happily.

Happy Bird： I’m Happy Bird. I have a sweet family. Look! This is my mum. Mum! Mum!

Mother： Oh，my dear!

Happy Bird： Sister! Sister!

Sister： Oh! My dear sister!

Happy Bird： Mummy，sister，is it OK? I want to play.

Sister： Come here，Happy Bird! Let’s build our nest.

Happy Bird： So tired! So bored! I need a rest. The nest，it’s early.

Suddenly，someone is coming.

Lazy Worm： I’m Lazy Worm. I want to play.

Happy Bird： My God! Who are you?

Lazy Worm： Don’t be afraid! I’m Lazy Worm. I know a lot of fun. Come and play with me!

Happy Bird： You’re so cool!

Lazy Worm： Of course. Come on，you’ll have a lot of fun!

From then on，Happy Bird plays with Lazy Worm day and night，forgetting the nest.

Happy Bird： Winter? Early! Nest? Early!

Winter comes，windy and snowy. The animals in the forest stay in their warm home，but Happy Bird has no nest! She is cold and hungry.

Happy Bird： Oh，it’s so cold. Mummy，where are you? I miss you. I miss you so much ...

Mother and Sister are running from a distance.

Mother： My poor child，where are you? It’s so cold.

Sister： Mum，look! She’s there! Sister! Sister!

Mother： Happy Bird，is that you?

Happy Bird： Mummy，mummy! It’s me.

Mother： My poor child，just hang on a second.

Happy Bird sees Lazy Worm，and she is waving to him.

Lazy Worm： Hey! Happy bird!

Happy Bird： A-a-a，ah-chow! Hello!

Lazy Worm： Hey! Come and play!

Happy Bird： Mum，I want to eat and play.

Mother： Dear，do you know why you are trapped here?

Happy Bird： Because I’m too hungry，and it snows so hard!!

Mother： Don’t you understand? Because you are always playing! And you just forget to build a nest!

Lazy Worm keeps waving to Happy Bird and she is waving to him at the same time.

Mother： You have no idea about your mistake at all. Let’s go.

Sister： Mum，Mum，must we leave her alone?

Mother： One can truly grow up on his own.

Happy Bird： Mum! Mum! Don’t leave me alone!

Happy Bird cries for Lazy Worm’s help.

Happy Bird： Dear friend. Come here! Help me!

Lazy Worm： What? Help you? I just want to play.

Happy Bird： My God! "Please help me!

Lazy Worm： I’m leaving! La la la ...

Happy Bird： （Cries sadly）Oh! No one helps me. Tired！Cold! What can I do? I’m dying.

Happy Bird： No! I can’t give up! Mummy says，one can truly grow up on his own.

Happy Bird wipes away her tears and tries! Finally，she finds some food. Happy Bird isn’t hungry. She goes home and sees Lazy Worm lying by the road.

Happy Bird： Hey，friend! What’s wrong with you?

Lazy Worm： Oh， give me food. I’m too hungry.

Happy Bird： Dear friend，we can’t play all the time. Playing can make us happy，but the happiness won’t last for long.

Lazy Worm： Well，what should I do?

Happy Bird： Learn to look for food and build your home.

Lazy Worm： Yes. I won’t be that lazy any more. I will work hard!

Lazy Wormamp; Happy Bird： We used to play all the time. But now we will work hard together and get ready for every day with more efforts.

Father Forest： Happy Bird!

Happy Bird： Father Forest!

Father Forest： Happy Bird，I know everything about you. Now，I will call you Hanhao Bird. Remember this lesson，and you are still a good kiddy.

Happy Bird： Hanhao Bird. Good! I’m Hanhao Bird now. Thank you，I will never forget this lesson!

From then on，they live a happy life.
