今天是毛毛专栏，毛毛每周将为您推荐一本优秀的英文绘本，还有朗读音频哦！
各位好！
还有一个月就到圣诞节了！在某年的某圣诞节诞生了一只奇葩的恐龙。。。于是，毛毛很不厚道地为大家带来一套重口味绘本 -
便便恐龙！
对，就是这套系列绘本。其中最著名的三本，要数上图排名前三的：The Dinosaur that Pooped Christmas（便便恐龙之圣诞礼物）、The Dinosaur that Pooped a Planet（便便恐龙之遨游太空）、The Dinosaur that Pooped the Past（便便恐龙之魔法秋千）！
该书入选2015年英国世界图书节书目，长期位于英国亚马逊童书榜前十！
这画风和故事都十分清奇的绘本，作者也十分牛哦！
绘图作者是童书界大名鼎鼎的学乐出版社(Scholastic)御用插画师Garry Parsons（加里·帕森斯）。这位英国天才科幻插画师笔下的形象都十分憨直可爱，尤其是恐龙！简直是小朋友心目中呆萌的代表！
而两位著作者就更加神奇了，两位都是英国流行音乐界小有名气的乐队成员！不仅有才华，且还是颜值担当！
Tom Fletcher（汤姆·弗莱彻），1985年生于英国，创作型歌手，吉他手。他创建英国流行摇滚乐队小飞侠（McFly），担任吉他手和主唱，是乐队的主唱和主要作曲者。音乐作品在英国多次获奖。作品《Friday Night》还被选入电影《圣诞惊魂夜》的片尾曲。汤姆酷爱圣诞节和太空历险，和波伊特都痴迷于关于便便的有趣话题。
Dougie Poynter（道基·波伊特），英国流行摇滚乐队小飞侠（McFly）的贝斯手与和声。和汤姆弗莱彻共同创建了小飞侠乐队，酷爱爬行动物，也很喜欢谈论与便便有关的有趣话题。
回到“便便”这个话题，很重口、很不可言说？这位身负魔力便便的恐龙它是怎么来的？它和它的好伙伴Danny一起经历了哪些冒险？接下来几期毛毛会为您介绍！
那还等什么？开始吧！就从圣诞礼物开始！

From high in the sky Santa looked down below to houses all cosy and covered in snow, where snoozers were snoozing, tucked up in the their beds whilst dreaming the most a festive dreams in their heads.
圣诞老人俯瞰着雪夜中温暖舒适的一家家房屋，人们都在甜美的梦中酣睡着。（描述的好美！）
But one boy called Danny, a greedy young chap, the greediest chap on the planet in fact, was lying awake on his mountain of toys, which stood even taller than most girls and boys.
But that wasn't enough, Danny still wanted more, he wanted much more than his toy box could store.
So big Santy C said "I'll leave him a present, but this year his present might just be unpleasant."
不过一个叫丹尼的小男孩十分贪心。尽管他已经拥有数不清的玩具了，他还是想要更多！
于是圣诞老人心生一计：今天圣诞节我可得给他一个“惊喜”！（会不会是惊吓？）
Danny heard such a clatter, his heart skipped a thump - 'Twas the clopping of hooves going clippety-clump.
He bounced out of bed and threw on some clothes and crept down the stairs on his tip-tippy-toes.
丹尼一听到啼啼哒哒的响动就小心脏咚咚咚直跳，赶紧胡乱套了几件衣服就悄悄下楼了。（'Twas是It was的简写）
There, under the tree, were gifts big and small and a GIMUNGUS egg placed in front of them all.
"An egg?!" Danny said. "Santa brought me an egg?!"
Then out with a crack! popped a dinosaur's head!
果然在圣诞树下摆着大大小小的礼物，其中一个超级巨蛋吸引了他。（GIMUNGUS是Gigantic和Humongous的合体，可见这蛋是有多大！）
“圣诞老人送给我一个蛋？”
正想着，只听一声巨响，竟然拱出一只恐龙脑袋来！
It wasted no time on that cold Christmas morning and started to eat everything without warning.
It swallowed the stockings and Christmas cards too, the red fairy lights, then the green and the blue.
There wasn't a single thing Danny could do, except sit and watch as the dinosaur chewed.
这只恐龙一刻不停就开吃！先吞了袜子、卡片、红绿蓝彩灯。
丹尼都吓傻了，只坐在那一动不动地看着它吃。
It chewed and it munched and it crunched on Kris Kringle, the reindeer, the sleigh bells and all things that jingle.
But it didn't stop there, there were more things to gobble, much more than the small shiny baubles that bobble.
接着它又吃掉了装饰的圣诞老人、驯鹿、铃当以及所有叮呤呤的东西。
这还没完，小圆球什么都不放过！
It ate up the cat and the dog and the fish, and from the dishwasher it downed every dish.
The tables, the chairs, the walls and the doors - now nothing was safe, not even the floors.
猫啊、狗啊、鱼啊全吃个不剩，连洗碗机都清空了。
桌子、椅子、墙和门，甚至地板也未能幸免。（接下来画面恐怖，小心观看！）
Danny's poor granny was knitting some socks, but the dino had no need for socks, it had lots!
So it slurped up her knitting like strings of spaghetti and gobbled up Granny along with the settee.
丹尼的奶奶正织袜子呢，结果毛线就像意面一样吸溜进了恐龙肚子里，奶奶则同沙发一块儿进了肚儿。。。
Then it ate Danny's mum, she was gone in one bite, and although Danny's dad tried to put up a fight, the dino had grown to the size of King Kong with a gulp and a burp Danny's father was gone.
Now nothing was left - all Danny could see was a fat dinosaur where his home used to be.
然后一口吃了丹尼的妈妈，爸爸试图反抗不幸还是被变成金刚的恐龙给吞了。
此时，丹尼的家啥都没有了，只剩下一只肚子溜圆的恐龙！
And so, with the thought of no Christmas this year, his tears turned to snow flakes and then disappeared.
With the feeling of guilt in the dinosaur's gut, its brain brewed a plan involving its butt.
It knew there was only one thing it could do: to put Christmas right it needed to ...
圣诞节毁了，丹尼哭得眼泪都冻成了雪花。
这时恐龙的大肚子里充满了深深的愧疚，脑子里开始构想挽救计划，似乎得从屁屁开始。
看来唯有这个办法才能把丹尼的圣诞节原装奉还了！。。。
POO!
便便！
It pooped out the turkey, the toys and the telly, and even the tinsel was now brown and smelly.
It pooped all the presents and pieces of puzzles, it pooped all the things it had previously guzzled.
And then Father Christmas yelled, "OUT OF THE WAY!"
As he flew from the dinosaur's bum on his sleigh.
于是他开始了惊天动地的便便，便出了火鸡、玩具、电视、小挂件，上面都挂着黄黄白白的不明物和一股不可言说的味道。
然后又便出了圣诞礼物、拼图、以及所有其他东西。
此时始作俑者圣诞老人插过一脚：“让一让！”
他呼地一下从恐龙肚上飞过。
The dinosaur finally gave a huge push and pooped Danny's parents in one massive
whoooOOOSH!
Last but not least, and never forgotten, Granny plopped out of the dinosaur's bottom.
“噗！”
最后一个巨力，终于把丹尼的爸妈给“送”出来了。
不能忘了，还有丹尼奶奶也成功脱险！
"Merry Christmas," said Dan to his whole family as they washed off the presents and put up the tree.
And the greedy young chap that you saw just before promised next Christmas he'd not ask for more.
And the dinosaur promised he'd not eat a crumb ...
“圣诞快乐！”小丹丹看着全家人清洗干净了所有圣诞礼物，还重新挂好圣诞树。
而这个贪心的小家伙终于承诺，明年再不贪心了！
而我们这只恐龙呢，则承诺他绝不吃一口。。。
...as you would if Christmas came out of your bum!
。。。从你的屁屁里便出来的圣诞节，哪能像你们那样无底线呢！
The End
----------------------
小朋友在读到中间部分时，有没有注意到那危险警示牌？
简直就像在说：“以下画面过于重口，谨慎点开。。。”然而你更加想点开了会不会？！
于是小朋友们有没有继续读完它呢？有没有看看这只在圣诞节诞生的恐龙吃了多少东西，丰富的画面中，你都找到些什么？你会叫它们的英文名称吗？
宝爸宝妈们不妨在与宝宝一起阅读的时候，与小朋友一边问答，一边探讨每一页丰富无比的画面，真可说是要什么有什么，什么都能吃，什么都吃得下！这才是便便恐龙啊！
然而这只一出生就闯了祸的恐龙，像每一个活泼爱动的宝宝一样，知道犯了错误，态度还是非常好的！它充分发动他的脑细胞，调动全身的洪荒之力，然后。。。噗。。。。
什么都解决了！！！
太重口了！太不忍直视了！远远的都闻到一股味！可还是很想看！
还很想把它们画出来，对不对？
于是讲完绘本，带着意犹未尽的小朋友，拿出各种空白的纸张和彩笔，或者彩纸和剪刀胶棒，画一些或贴画一些便便，怎么样？全家都会充满欢声笑语，好不好？
这样一套系列绘本，看起来很不忍直视，却带来很多欢乐，很多妙趣，是不是？
最后，希望你会喜欢，下期便便还来！
