大年初二，终于迎来了不用上学的周六[笑哭]
今天我们来读一本米粒儿从图书馆借阅的故事书<Something Smells！>
Story by Blake Liliane Hellman
Illustrated by Steven Henry
Blake Liliane Hellman wrote the story, he is the author.
Steven Henry drew the pictures, he is the illustrator.
Early one morning, Elliot woke up to a most terrible smell.
He looked around his room and frowned.
Something smells, he thought.
He checked under his bed.
But it was perfectly clean.
Was it a skunk?
He opened the window.
But the neighbourhood smelled like fresh morning air.
He sniffed Mr. Jiggles.
But Mr. Jiggles didn't smell.
Pee Wee didn't smell.
Wednesday's snack didn't smell - not very much, anyway.
Elliot could not find the smell that smelled.
Maybe it's Dad, he thought.
But Dad smelled pretty nice.
At breakfast his mother scolded him.
"Not one more day in that costume, Elliot!"
But he didn't want to take it off.
It was the best costume ever.
It glowed in the dark and happened to be an EXACT REPLICA OF HIS SKELETON.
Besides, he was much too busy hunting for the terrible smell.
Dogs smell, he thought.
But Digsy smelled like bacon.
Little sisters smell.
But Lucy smelled like maple syrup.
He bet a million jillion jelly beans it was the baby.
But Lilac smelled like baby powder.
Was it the cat food?
Nope.
Maybe it was the trash.
But all he found was some old Halloween candy.
What, what, what was that terrible smell?!
It wasn't a skunk.
Or Pee Wee.
Or Digsy.
Or Lucy.
Or even the baby.
It wasn't the trash.
That left only one thing ...
Grandma's famous Gefartzenschnaffel.
Do you know what's IN Gefartzenschnaffel?
Neither did Elliot.
But that wasn't the smell that smelled.
He looked up in the attic ...
and down in the basement ...
and every place in between.
"Not one more second in that costume, young man!" said his mother.
"It's time for your bath!"
Elliot was disappointed he had not solved the mystery of the terrible smell.
"Something smells," said Lucy.
"Something smells," said Grandma.
"Something smells," said Dad.
"Smuh!" said Lilac.
Elliot lathered and scrubbed and sudsed, and when he was done ...
SOMETHING swirled right down the drain.
The terrible smell was gone.
After his baht, Elliot was excited to put on his new sea monster pajamas.
They were the best pajamas ever!
They had ACTUAL SCALES and BIG, SCARY CLAWS!
They felt so good ...
... he was never ever going to take them off.
一个“骑马找马”的搞笑故事，好像直到最后Elliot也没找到臭味儿的来源，臭味儿就莫名其妙地消失了[笑哭]
要是早知道是自己身上那件“骷髅装”馊了的话，也不用找遍房间每个角度、闻遍家里所有人和宠物，甚至垃圾桶了。[捂脸]
如果我扣题在“听妈妈的话”上，不会有人有异议吧[偷笑]
