Can I Play Too?

大吉總是緊張兮兮，小豬寶可就不一定。
小豬寶總是笑嘻嘻，大吉可就不一定。
大吉總是東操心、西操心，所以有了他，小豬寶可以很安心。

　　大吉和小豬寶是最好的朋友。

　　大吉和小豬寶遇到了一位新朋友－－蛇。
　　他說也想和他們一起玩傳球，
　　可是蛇又沒有手，該怎麼玩傳球呢？

　　一起玩，好不好？

　　豬寶和大吉最喜歡玩傳球了，他們你丟我接，玩得好開心。這時候有條蛇來了，他說他也想一起玩傳球，可是蛇又沒有手，既不能丟球，也接不到球。難道他們就不和蛇一起玩了嗎？還是他們會想出有趣的點子來「接招」呢？

　　Gerald is careful. Piggie is not.
　　Piggie cannot help smiling. Gerald can.
　　Gerald and Piggie are best friends.

　　In Can I Play Too? Gerald and Piggie meet a new snake friend who wants to join in a game of catch. But don't you need arms to catch?

　　Mo Willems’ Geisel Award-winning duo never fails to tickle readers of all ages. Like previous Elephant & Piggie Books, this adventure has been vetted by an early learning specialist and emerging learners themselves. It turns reading into play!
