Monkey Says Hello

High on the Mountain of Flowers and Fruit sat a round stone egg. The sun warmed it, day after day. Then… crack!

Out came a little golden monkey. He was called Stone Monkey, because he came from a stone. He opened his eyes. Everything was new!

The sun came up over the mountains.

Monkey bowed to the east, the south, the west and the north.

Monkey was thirsty. He found a cool, clear stream. Slurp, slurp.

Monkey was hungry. A big pink peach hung from a tree. Chomp!

Monkey hopped along the mountain path. Hop, hop, hop!

He swung from a pine tree, high above the clouds. Whee!

The moon came up. Monkey curled up in the soft grass. What a big, happy first day. One day, the whole world would know his name: Sun Wukong, the Monkey King.

小猴子说你好

花果山的山顶上,有一颗圆圆的石蛋。太阳天天晒着它,暖暖的。忽然……咔嚓!

石蛋里出来一只金黄色的小猴子。他是从石头里蹦出来的,大家叫他石猴。他睁开眼睛。什么都是新的!

太阳从山后面升起来了。

小猴子向东、向南、向西、向北,都鞠了一个躬。

小猴子渴了。他找到一条清清凉凉的小溪。咕嘟,咕嘟。

小猴子饿了。树上挂着一个又大又红的桃子。啊呜,咬了一大口!

小猴子沿着山路跳呀跳。蹦,蹦,蹦!

他抓着松树枝,荡来荡去,一直荡到云朵上面。

月亮出来了。小猴子在软软的草地上蜷成一团。第一天,真快乐。很多年以后,大家都叫他孙悟空!
