The story

乐乐：今天我十一岁了！我们坐公交车去动物园！I'm eleven today! We're taking the bus to the zoo!

小雨：生日快乐，乐乐！咦，你的书包怎么这么大？Happy birthday, Lele! Hey, why is your backpack so big?

乐乐：小声一点儿！这是我的秘密行动。Keep your voice down! This is my secret operation.

大卫：什么行动？What operation?

乐乐：动物园不让带宠物。所以我的行动是：包子在书包里！The zoo doesn't allow pets. So my operation is: Baozi in the backpack!

乐乐：我的目标：让包子见到熊猫！My goal: get Baozi to meet the pandas!

包子：喵～Meow~

小雨：你看，书包的一个角在动！Look, one corner of the backpack is moving!
