There was a family.All were little.Their arms were little,and their hands were little,and their height was not tall,and their feet very small.

　　The grandpa slept on the living room couch and snored through his teeth.His feet were fat and doughy¹ like thick tamales,and these he powdered and stuffed into white socks and brown leather shoes.

　　The grandma's feet were lovely as pink pearls and dressed in velvety² high heels that made her walk with a wobble,but she wore them anyway because they were pretty.

小脚之家

　　有一家人。都是小个。他们的胳膊很小，他们的手也很小，他们的个头也不高，他们的叫非常非常小。

　　爷爷睡在客厅的沙发上，牙缝里漏出鼾声。他的脚又白又胖，像厚厚的玉米肉粽，他把它们扑上粉，套上白袜子，塞进棕色皮靴里。

　　奶奶的脚像粉红珍珠一样好看，穿着天鹅绒的高跟鞋，走起路来一歪一扭。可她还是穿着它们，因为鞋子漂亮。
