很久很久以前，有一位叫比利的農夫，他非常喜歡獨角獸。
比利有一隻叫啾啾的驢子，啾啾是他最喜歡的動物，同時，也是他最好的朋友。
雖然啾啾不會閱讀，但幸好，他會說話。
羅南德．麥當勞是比利最害怕的人，但只要有啾啾在旁邊，比利就充滿了勇氣。
比利和啾啾總喜歡去尋寶。某天，在尋寶的路上，他們在河邊找到一支舊手錶。
「 哇！」比利說：「我們要把這支錶帶回去嗎？」
當比利和啾啾到家時，他們看見羅南德站在家門口。
「走開！」 啾啾大喊，並試著嚇跑羅南德。
但羅南德並沒有走，而是一直待到啾啾的媽媽跑過來對他大吼才離開。
害怕的比利立刻跳到啾啾的背上，並騎著牠向鎮上跑去。
在鎮上他們看到一張探戈舞的海報，決定去報名每個禮拜天的表演。
接下來，他們到了一間咖啡廳想找點東西吃，但比利想吃的只有餅乾。
同時，他們也發現了羅南德的通緝令，上面寫著懸賞金為一萬個金條。
於是啾啾問：「他們是想活人還是死人啊？」
「好問題。」啾啾說。
所以他們想了個抓羅南德的計畫。
他們出發後並沒有發現羅南德，只找到了他的帽子。
「可是羅南德的帽子從來不離身…」
(Original Text)
Once upon a time, there was a farmer named Billy who loved unicorns.
Jojo the Donkey was his favourite animal and his best friend. Luckily, Jojo could talk, but not read!
His greatest fear was Ronald McDonald – but he wasn’t half as afraid of him when Jojo was around.
Billy and Jojo loved going hunting for gold. One day, they found an old watch by a river when they went hunting for gold.
“Wow,” said Billy. “Should we go back with this watch?”
When they got home, they saw Ronald McDonald waiting at his door.
“Go away!” Jojo exclaimed. He tried to scare him off.
But, Ronald wouldn’t go away, until Jojo’s mother came and roared at him.
Billy jumped onto Jojo’s back and they galloped into the town. They found a poster for Tango Dancing – they signed up for it every Sunday!
Next, they went into a café to find some food but all Billy wanted was cream crackers. That’s where they found a wanted sign.
It was for Ronald McDonald which included a reward with ten thousand gold bars.
“Is he wanted dead or alive?” asked Jojo.
“Yup.”
They made a plan to catch Ronald McDonald. When they set out on their journey, they didn’t find Ronald McDonald, they found his hat.
“Ronald never leaves home without his hat…”
