Story

书包背上的那一天

米米背着黄色书包，乐乐背着红色书包，两个人一起站在那扇大大的蓝色门前。 "里面有什么呀？"米米轻轻问。 乐乐耸了耸小肩膀："进去就知道啦。"

他们一起推开了门——哇！ 教室里到处都是好玩的东西。阳光从高高的窗户照进来，在地板上画出一条一条金色的光带。角落里有一个大圆鱼缸，三条橙色的小鱼咕噜咕噜地转圈圈，其中一条尾巴上有一小片白色的花纹。米米把鼻子贴上玻璃，小声说："你好，小白纹。"

教室里还有好多东西！胖胖的蜡笔装在铁罐子里，软软的布动物睡在篮子里，书架上的绘本页角都有点卷卷的。梅老师有一头卷卷的棕色头发，她的毛衣上有两个大口袋，什么在哪里她全都知道。

乐乐找到了一箱光滑的木积木。他把积木搭高、搭高、再搭高——扑通！积木全倒了，乐乐笑得肚子都在抖。 "我可以试试吗？"旁边传来一个小小的声音。 是贝贝。她穿着绿色毛衣，表情很认真，一直在看。 乐乐把最大的那块积木先递给她，因为最大的那块是最好的开始。 贝贝笑了——原来她认真的小脸里藏着一个很大很大的笑容。

故事时间到了，大家都坐到鱼缸旁边的软地毯上。梅老师翻开一本书，讲的是一只熊找到了一顶帽子。孩子们都往前探着脑袋，想把每一页都看清楚。米米探得太近，乐乐悄悄问："你看得见吗？"米米小声说："我什么都看得见！"

故事讲完了，米米回头看了看鱼缸。 那条有小白纹的鱼还在转圈圈，慢慢的，圆圆的。 米米轻轻说："小白纹，明天见。" 她心里已经确定，明天她一定会来的。

Scenes

At the Big Blue Door

Mia and Leo stood at the big blue door with their backpacks on. Mia's was yellow. Leo's was red. "What do you think is in there?" Mia whispered. Leo shrugged. "Only one way to find out."

Oh! So Many Things

They pushed the door open together, and oh! The classroom was full of the most interesting things — long stripes of sunlight, tiny chairs in every color, and three orange fish going round and round.

The Biggest Block First

Leo stacked the blocks up, up, up — and whomp! — they tumbled down. "Can I try?" asked a small voice. It was Bea. Leo handed her the biggest block first, because big ones are the best ones to start with.

Leaning In at Story Time

At story time, everyone sat on the soft rug near the fish tank. Miss Plum read a book about a bear who found a hat, and all the children leaned in to look at every page.

See You Tomorrow, Stripe Fish

When the story was done, Mia looked over at the fish tank one more time. The fish with the little white stripe was still going round and round. "See you tomorrow, stripe fish," she said quietly. And she was already sure she would.
