Six-Dinner Sid

　　黑貓Sid住在Aristotle街上一號到六號六個不同的家庭裏。由於鄰居們互不往來，大家都以為Sid是自己的寵物，因此每天Sid都有六頓晚餐可以吃，代價是得記住六個不同的名字以及擁有六種不同的個性。有時六樣不同的生活的確很累人，但是想到豐盛的晚餐，一切都是完美值得的。直到一天Sid感冒咳嗽了，主人們分別帶牠去看病吃藥，眼尖的獸醫終於識破了Sid的秘密，六個主人決定從此Sid每天只能吃一次晚餐。習慣六個晚餐的Sid於是離開原有的主人們，來到Pythagorase廣場，一樣住在一號到六號不同的家庭裏，不同的是，這邊的街坊敦親睦鄰，大家都知道Sid的六頓晚餐，只是誰也不介意。

　　幽默逗趣、創意十足又頗含寓意的Six-Dinner Sid的確深受大小讀者們的喜愛。作者Inga Moore巧妙地運用色鉛筆細膩地捕捉描繪各個角色豐富細緻的表情，而描寫Sid六頓晚餐、六種個性淺顯卻活潑的文字也非常適合小讀者閱讀學習。

One sly cat plays the pet of six different owners so that he can get six dinners every night.

Sid the cat lives at number one Aristotle Street. He also lives at number two, number three, number four, number five, and number six.

Since the neighbors on Aristotle street don''t talk to each other, no one realizes that Sid gets six dinners each night. But when Sid gets a cold, being six people''s pet might be more than he bargained for.
