繪本節選

The animal world has some very slow animals in it.

One of the very slowest is the snail.

Even the fastest snails are pretty slow.

In 1995, Archie the snail took two minutes and twenty seconds to crawl 13 inches (33 cm)

Snails aren’t the only slow animals.

Starfish don’t seem to move at all.

At top speed, they just creep along.

A starfish needs four minutes to move the length of a man’s arm

The three-toed sloth hangs around in trees most of the time.

Because it seldom moves, little plants often grow on its fur.

A sloth needs about three minutes to crawl the length of two cars

中文翻譯：

動物世界里有一些非常慢的動物。

其中最慢的是蝸牛。

即使是最快的蝸牛也相當慢。

1995年，蝸牛阿奇花了2分20秒爬了13英寸(33厘米)

蝸牛不是唯一行動遲緩的動物。

海星好像一點也不動。

以最快的速度，它們只是爬行前進。

一只海星需要四分鐘來移動一個人手臂的長度

三趾樹懶大部分時間都在樹上游蕩。

因為它很少動，所以小植物常常長在它的皮毛上。

樹懶爬兩輛車的長度大約需要三分鐘
