有读者留言,希望心一能推荐一个书单。我如实传达之后,心一仅凭记忆,迅速列出了长长的一份,美其名曰:“心一的超级书单”,或可直译为“心一的史诗级别书单”:
此书单,是心一从7岁起脱离绘本,开始读章节书,一直到现在,所读儿童小说里的精品。按年龄分类,每本还做了详细评述。
需要强调一下。心一读书,仅凭自己兴趣,不听从别人的推荐。魔法、奇幻之类的书,心一一直不感兴趣,再有名也不读,比如《哈利波特》系列,比如《纳尼亚传奇》系列等等。所以,尽管有些也适合所有读者,这个书单的面比较窄,更适合心一这样性格的女孩。
心一是仪式感的完美主义者,选了各种颜色的字体以作年龄区分,太细,让我眼花缭乱,只得大致按年龄编辑了一下。
书单,及评述的大意翻译如下:
Sunny’s Epic Book List
心一的超级书单
7岁+
Daisy and the trouble with ……….. by Kes Gray
Very good, very funny, very relatable, very good pictures.
好玩,配图精彩。
(心一的评价里,用了很多次"relatable"这个词,相当于,“很有共鸣”。Daisy的这个系列,基本就是搞怪,搞笑。心一小时候很是喜欢。)
-The Lotus Lane series by Kyla May
Very relatable and very fun and full of great pictures! Written like a diary.
好玩。配图好看。日记体文字。
-Fancy Nancy
Very good pictures and very fun and slightly french and very fancy!
好玩,配图精彩,有点法国味,很花哨!
-Fancy Nancy chapter books
For older readers who love fancy nancy!
(心一一直很喜欢Fancy
Nancy系列的绘本,以及章节书。这是此书单里唯一一套绘本。)
-David Williams Books
So, so funny! Wonderful pictures. Would recommend to everyone.
好玩!配图好!推荐给每个人!
(David
Walliams的书,心一到现在12岁了还在读。前两天在院子里的吊床上,读着其中的一本,优哉游哉。我当时忿忿地想,这么大了还在读“幼稚书”!)
-Books by Roald Dahl
Very funny and very good. They are classics and they are all amazing.
经典。有趣。
(罗德代尔的书,是儿童文学的经典。心一在8岁时,因兴趣,开始录制《查理的巧克力工厂》有声书,花了两年时间录完,10岁结束。这应该是全网唯一的标准英音童声朗读版。有兴趣的读者朋友,可以下载微信小程序

-Real Friends (graphic novel) by Shannon Hale
Suitable to those who have friendship troubles and one of the best graphic novels ever!
如果你交不到朋友,或者和好朋友发生了矛盾,此书最为适合! 这是最好的漫画小说之一!
(心一读的书,最主要的主题就是如何处理孩子们之间的友谊。这类书读多了,心一在学校很擅长交朋友。)
-Diary of a Whimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney
Funny, but uses slang and if you want to speak slightly less conversational you shouldn't read them.
有趣。但俚语太多,口语化太重。
(这个系列,是所有孩子们的最爱。心一可能受我文字洁癖的遗传,对文字有点吹毛求疵。)
-Dork Diaries by Rachel Rennee Russell
Very, very good! I love them and they are very relatable and funny with very good pictures!
非常棒!我喜欢!很有共鸣,很好玩。配图精彩。
(这套书,也是孩子们的最爱。)
-My Weird school by Dan Gutman
Very funny but has simple and slang language.
搞笑,但俚语太多。
(这套书,心一小时候很是沉迷。主人公是一个调皮捣蛋的男孩。心一在书店里搜集了全套系列。现在她对此书的评价,似乎很冷静清醒。当时我觉得此套书过于搞怪,太沉迷不好,现在看来,随着年龄的增长,孩子的读书品味,会自然提高,家长不必干预。
-Heidi Heckelbeck series
Smaller chapter books! They have magic and fun things in them, very relatable and very good!
适合低幼孩子的章节书。有趣。
(心一小时候,在书店里收集了此系列的所有书。)
看到这个系列,我问,Jonie B Jones系列的书呢?心一说,哦,哦,忘了,也很好,插图也漂亮,就是表述太美国,有些俚语不是太明白。
-Tom Gates series
Good for fans of diaries of a wimpy kid, and funny and full of pictures.
喜欢《小屁孩日记》的读者,一定喜欢这个系列。搞笑。配图丰富。
-My Funny Family Series
Funny and very very good!
搞笑。强烈推荐!
(我最初在香港Page
One书店给心一买的这个系列。香港Page
One后来全线倒闭,只剩记忆了。)
10岁 -- 13岁(小说)

One of my favourite series! They are so good and very clever. They are very enthralling and slightly scary, but relatable if you're asian and moved to a foreign country.

心一强烈推荐这一套书。关于一个”古板“女孩(Geek,成绩好而古怪),后来却当了一个时装模特。这套书,心一在Ipad里听有声书,每本都不下十几遍。
