冬日里,雪静静地下着,小松鼠在橡树上冷得瑟瑟发抖。它问妈妈:“我们在冬天如何保暖呢?”妈妈答道:“我们把毛茸茸的尾巴像毛毯一样盖在身上来保暖。”在随后的几天,小松鼠询问了自己的朋友们如何过冬。它了解到:老鼠会呆在洞里,尽情享用自己储藏的坚果和种子;土拨鼠整个冬天都呆在巢穴中冬眠;乌龟用落叶搭成柔软舒适的床,也会一觉睡到春天;知更鸟则会迁徙到温暖的南方以找寻更多食物。小松鼠发现,大家都有各自过冬的方式。它回到家里,依偎在妈妈身旁,进入了甜甜的梦乡。

Snow fell silently. In the oak tree, young Squirrel shivered. “Mama, how will we keep warm this winter?” he asked.

“We will use our brushy tails like blankets to keep warm,” she said.

The next day, Squirrel was playing with his friend Mouse. He asked, “Mouse, what do you do in winter to keep warm?”“If it gets too cold, Ill stay in my underground nest and feast on the nuts and seeds Ive stored,” said Mouse.

A few days later, Squirrel saw his friend Woodchuck. He said, “Woodchuck, how do you keep warm in winter? I use my tail. Mouse stays in her underground nest. What about you?”

“We hibernate. We sleep in our den all winter. And thats where Im headed right now. Good night!”

Squirrel turned and headed home. But he almost tripped over his friend Box Turtle who was digging in a pile of fallen leaves. “Hello, Turtle,” said Squirrel. “Are you getting ready for winter? We squirrels use our tails to keep warm. Mouse stays in her underground nest, and Woodchuck hibernates. What about you?”

“Winter means a long sleep for me, too,” said Turtle. “Im making a bed in these leaves. Ill stay here until spring.”
