因為實在太難抉擇
這頁簡直要成了希多的寫真集惹
出版公司的話
不管別人喜不喜歡你、在不在意你
你是那個唯一可以決定怎麼對待自己的人
本書原文為荷蘭文,比利時繪本。是一個關於其貌不揚、不受喜歡的人,儘管因為別人冷漠的對待而傷心難過,最終仍選擇好好對待自己的小故事。這是一個嚴肅的課題,不過作者以可愛、輕鬆的畫風及簡單的文字來呈現這個主題,讀來不覺壓力卻又能引人深思。
悠尼是一隻小蜘蛛,親切又可愛。可是,沒人知道。
這天,悠尼手裡拿著個東西,一見人就說:「我……」可是,他話都還沒說出口,大家早已經尖聲大叫,逃得遠遠的。「臭兮兮、一身刺的動物。」、「長著一身黑毛的怪物。」、「看了就讓人發毛、到處爬的東西。」、「髒髒肥肥、圓滾滾的東西。」、「醜暴了的野獸。」……這些是大家對他的印象和批評。
其實,這天是悠尼的生日,他只是想和別人一起分享他的生日蛋糕。沒人願意陪他過生日,悠尼好難過,忍不住抽抽答答哭起來。不過,雖然沒有人祝福,悠尼還是對自己說:祝我生日快樂,然後呼嚕呼嚕吞下整塊生日蛋糕。
在這個故事中,作者鼓勵孩子,即使不被朋友喜歡,也要好好對待自己,就像強尼一樣,自己愛自己。作者也提醒讀者們,不要只因為一個人的外表而拒絕與對方交朋友,以和善、開放、包容的心試著去認識對方,你會發現,對方可能就像故事裡的強尼一樣,和善又可愛。
作者希多.凡荷納賀頓的話
《如果沒有人喜歡我,我也要喜歡自己》是我最愛的作品之一,有好多老師跟學齡前兒童也都覺得悠尼很討人喜歡。這本書可以重新出版,我感到非常開心。

開心的騰空飛來
悠尼出現,把蜜蜂嚇壞了

《Itsy-Bitsy Spider》
The itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the water spout
Down came the rain
And washed the spider out
Out came the sun
And dried up all the rain
And the itsy-bitsy spider
Climbed up the spout again

歌詞在這裡:
I like bunny rabbits, I like frogs.
I like pussycats, and I like dogs.
Talking to a tiger is like falling off a log.
Being friendly to the animals is easy!
I've got a couple of hamsters in the garden shed;
One's called Sebastian, and the other's called Fred.
I've even got a teddy bear I take to bed!
Being friendly with the animals is easy!
chorus:
But, a spider in the bath, a spider in the bath!
A creepy crawly, creepy crawly spider in the bath!
I know he's only there because he wants to have a laugh!
With hairy legs and beady eyes that terrify and tantalize!
But, a spider in the bath, a spider in the bath!
A creepy crawly, creepy crawly spider in the bath!
I know he's only there because he wants to have a laugh!
I thought I'd put it down the drain but now he's climbing up the chain!
Spider in the bath!
I like elephants, and I like mice.
I'd take a lion cub at any price.
I've even heard that crocodiles can be quite nice.
Being friendly to the animals is easy!
I like caterpillars. I like snails.
I like a lizard with a very long tail.
I'd even go swimming with a big white whale.
Being friendly to the animals is easy!
chorus
I've a horrible feeling that the spider's still there!
He's hiding in the bathroom, but I don't know where.
But bath time's over now, so i don't care!
I thought I'd put him down the drain but now he's climbing up the chain!
Spiders! Eugh!
