《Marvin wanted more》这本绘本作者是英国作家约瑟·西澳伯德。这是一部试图教孩子自我认知自我接纳的作品，并对于孩子们不理智的自我成长和膨胀给予一点儿温和的提醒，教孩子认识作为宇宙规律的“度”是至关重要的。

有一只叫MARVIN的小绵羊因为自己长得瘦小，为了改变现状，他不惜付出一切力量不停地“吃”，他越长越大，早就超过了同伴儿，可是因为自己的大个子，他已经无法停下来，于是，他从吃草变成吃树，从吃树变成了吃森林，从吃森林变成了吃国家，从吃国家变成了吃地球，结局如何呢？

The sheep in the meadow loved to play together all day long.

But Marvin was feeling rather gloomy.

"What's the matter?" asked Molly.

"I can't run as fast or jump as high as the other sheep," grumbled Marvin. "I'm too small, it's not fair."

"But I like you as you are," said Molly.

这其中粗略看看，有哪些语法点呢？

“rather”

“as...as”

"too"

"as"

But Marvin wanted to be just a little bigger.

So when the other sheep had finished eating......

...Marvin ate some more.

这其中涉及了多少种时态呢？

wanted 过去式

had finished 过去完成式

As Marvin ate more, he grew bigger and bigger...

And soon he could run faster and jump much higher than the other sheep.
