Blue Skies

This book tells the story of ten-year-old Glory， as she is ready for a miracle1 of her very own—her fathers going home.

這本書講述了十歲格洛莉的故事，當(dāng)時她正為自己的奇跡做準(zhǔn)備——父親返回家鄉(xiāng)。

The war ended three years ago， but Glorys father never went home from the front2 in France. Glory knows what Mama and Grams and Grandpa say—that Daddy died a hero on Omaha Beach. But in her heart， she thinks Daddy is still out there.

戰(zhàn)爭于三年前結(jié)束，但格洛莉的父親卻一直沒有從法國前線返回家園。格洛莉能理解媽媽、奶奶以及爺爺所說的話——爸爸在奧馬哈海灘上英勇犧牲了。但她內(nèi)心深處還是相信，爸爸仍然活著。

One of the boxcars3 from the “thank you” train will be stopping nearby. There are gifts of gratitude4 from the people of France. She just knows Daddy will be its surprise cargo5.

“感謝”號火車的其中一節(jié)車廂將在附近停?；疖嚿蠞M是法國人民的謝意，格洛莉只知道爸爸會是其中的驚喜“貨物”。

But miracles， like people， are always changing， until at last they find their way home.

但是奇跡，就像人一樣，總是在變化，直到最后他們找到回家的路。
