本周五海尼曼的內容進行到第45個故事，My baby sister，所以就補充了一個講姐妹情誼的迪士尼冰雪奇緣系列繪本之一，A sister more like me.我發現冰雪奇緣不僅女孩喜歡，很多男孩子也非常愛。
如果你看了我提供給大家的繪本視頻，你就會發現，這個繪本的文字，是由Elsa和Anna兩個人的內心獨白組成的。想像一下，如果把這故事改成兩個女孩子的詩朗誦，再加上一些配樂，出來的效果一定非常棒。
在這個繪本裡，沒有出現這句是Anna說的，那句是Elsa說的，而是每個主人公用不同的顏色把她們的話標識了出來。
我們的家長和孩子們不妨閉上眼睛只聽聲音，看看能不能通過兩個公主的不同性格，猜出來裡面的句話是誰說的。好了，開始聽我們今天的故事吧。
A Sister More Like Me
一個更像我的姐妹
by Barbara Jean Hicks
illustrated by Brittney Lee
（你是希望兄弟姐妹和你性格迥異的呢？
還是希望他們能和你的性格更像呢？）
My name is Princess Elsa.
I'm as royal as can be.
If the words look neat and purple,
then they belong to me.
我是Elsa公主
我尊貴無比
像整潔的，紫色的
這些詞都是屬於我的
I'm her little sister,
Anna - I like color, noise, and shine.
When the words are pink and crowed,
you can tell that they are mine.
我是她的小妹妹Anna
我喜歡色彩，喧鬧，光亮
當看到粉紅的，歡呼的這樣的詞
你就能知道這些詞是用來形容我的
When you and I were little,
we were close as we could be.
當我們還是小孩子的時候
我們非常親密
I was happy you were Anna.
You were thrilled that I was me.
我曾經很開心你是Anna
你也很高興我是我
Till I had to hide my magic,
and our closeness had to end.
我曾經很開心你是Anna
你也很高興我是我
I was still your older sister,
but I couldn't be your friend.
我還是你的姐姐
但是我不能成為你的朋友
I followed you around the house
and chattered like a bird.
I tried my best to please you,
but you never said a word.
我在你身後繞著房子走來走去
像小鳥一樣在你身邊嘰嘰喳喳
我盡我最大的努力讓你開心
但是你一個字都不曾說
That's when I started dreaming about
how my life would be...
if I ever had a chance to have
a sister more like me.
於是我開始幻想
如果我有可能
有一個更像我一樣的姐妹
我的生活會變成怎樣
I considered it my job to do what
needed to be done.
You were always and forever finding
ways to have more fun.
我考慮著我的工作還有哪些需要完成
你總是一直不停去尋找更加快樂的方法
There were times you made me crazy,
though I tried to let you be -
as I wondered why I couldn't have
a sister more like me.
有些時候你會讓我抓狂
儘管我嘗試讓你做自己
我也在想我為什麼不能有一個
更像我的姐妹呢
while I galloped on my pony
in the wind and rain and sun,
you were cooped up in the study-
and you thought that it was fun!
當我在風中，雨中，太陽下
騎著我的小馬奔馳的時候
你被禁錮在學習當中
不過你認為那是有趣的
I'd have loved to have a playmate
who would join me up a tree.
I would have, if I could have had a sister more like me.
我想有一個玩伴
可以和我一起爬樹
如果我有一個更像我的姐妹
我就可以有這樣的玩伴了
And I'd have loved to have a friend who knew geometry -
I would have, if I could have had a sister more like me.
我想有一個懂幾何的朋友
如果我有一個更像我的姐妹
我就可以有這樣的朋友了
You needed peace and quiet.
I was Princess Meet-and-Greet.
你喜歡安靜
而我是好客的公主
Your room was an explosion!
Mine was always clean and neet.
你的房間和爆炸現場一樣
我的總是乾淨整潔
You were elegant and proper,
and you loved a fancy tea.
While I preferred a bright and
breezy picinic by the sea.
你優雅得體
喜歡精緻的茶點
而我更喜歡在海邊
享受陽光和微風的野餐
You didn't seem to care a bit about the way you dressed.
It was important, as a princess, that I look my best.
你似乎一點都不在乎你的穿著
作為一個公主這個非常重要
所以我總是展現自己最好的一面
You were the picture of perfection
every day, no matter what.
I tried to understand you,
but the door was always shut.
無論發生什麼
你每天都那麼完美
我試著理解你
但是這道門被關上了
Then one day I was so dazzled
when I saw what you could be.
And I wondered...
did I really want a sister more like me?
有一天我被你所能做的事情
弄的眼花繚亂
我在想
我真的想要一個更像我的姐妹嗎？
You showed me that you loved me,
and I suddenly felt free-
and truely glad I didn't have
a sister more like me.
你像我展示了你愛我
讓我突然感受到了自由
我為我沒有一個
更像我的姐妹而開心
You always did your duty,
and you always used your head.
你總是盡職盡責
你總是善用你的頭腦
You always listened to you heart
and followed where it led.
你總是聽從你的內心
跟隨著心的指引
I'm very glad I haven't had a sister more like me.
With you around, without a doubt, I see things differently.
我非常高興我沒有一個更像我的姐妹
你在我的身邊，
毋庸置疑
我看到的事物都不同了
I was prickly as an urchin.
我像帶刺的海膽
I was stubborn as a mule!
Now we try to work together-
我固執的像頭驢
現在我們一起努力
it's our Sister Golden Rule.
這是我們姐妹的黃金法則
You are bold and fearless, Sister,
and you have a loving heart.
你勇敢無畏，我的妹妹
你有一顆有愛的心
You are poised and graceful, Sister,
and so wonderfully smart.
你淡定優雅我的姐姐
你冰雪聰明
I'm so happy you are Anna, and I'm pleased that I am me.
I'm thrilled that you are Elsa, and I'm happy I am me.
But even more important-we are happy we are WE.
我非常開心你是Anna，我也高興我是我。
我非常開心你的Elsa，我也高興我是我。
但是更為重要的是
我們都為是我們這樣的姐妹而開心。
這個繪本沒有原版的音頻，大家可以看一下這個外國爸爸的朗讀視頻作為參考。
以上是內容是海尼曼正式學員每周五的分享。說來慚愧，這幾周人在國外，沒有時間寫公共帳號，就把學員分享的內容放上來。等我十一之後回來就回復正常更新，千萬不要取關哦。
