“On the Day the Horse Got Out / 马儿跑出来的那一天” is a playful, rhythmic picture book where one runaway horse sets off a chain of funny and surprising events — from ringing bells to flying birds, from crying clouds to dancing kids.

It’s full of repetition, anticipation, and lively imagery, perfect for reading aloud. This book is extra special to me because it’s the very first one my daughter Jojo borrowed from the San Jose Public Library — and today, I’m sharing my own Chinese translation with you.

🎙️ 今天我要和大家分享的绘本叫做 《On the Day the Horse Got Out / 马儿跑出来的那一天》。

这本书有个特别的来历——有一天，我带久久去图书馆，在儿童绘本区的书架前抱着她，让她自己伸手挑书。她就这样亲手选中了这一本！这是她从 San Jose 图书馆借的第一本书呢！

非常值得纪念，所以久久妈妈特意翻译了中文版本，想和大家一起分享这个有趣的故事。
