H.C. Andersens eventyr om den lille havfrues ulykkelige forelskelse i en menneskeprins er en af verdenshistoriens helt store klassikere. Kate Royster har bearbejdet eventyret, så det kan bruges til undervisning af dansk som fremmedsprog. Eleverne lærer således både det danske sprog og en vigtig del af den danske kulturskat at kende.ANMELDELSE'FOKUS - på dansk som andetsprog for voksne'Af: Kirsten Beith, AOF-Nord, Frederikshavn Sprogcenter, marts 2006Bogen er illustreret, og billederne kan fint danne udgangspunkt for billedanalyse, samtale om billedernes indhold samt som "stikord" til resume af teksten. Mit indtryk af illustrationerne er, at de underbygger den nordiske eventyrstemning. Teksten er indlæst på cd, hvor der desuden også er indtalt dictogloss.Bogen er opbygget således: Først historien i små overskuelige kapitler, dernæst 2-3 sider med informationer om eventyrets oprindelse, forslag til før- og efterlæsningsopgaver samt ordlister. Desuden er svære ord og begreber forklaret i fodnoteform.Historien lægger op til samtale og diskussion om væsentlige emner. Den lille havfrue handler meget om idealer og værdier. Havfruen ofrer sin smukke hale og må leve med mange smerter for at leve op til menneskenes skønhedsidealer. Hvor er forskellen på havfruens kamp og moderne kvinders evige kamp for at forblive unge? Man skærer her og tilføjer der og udholder smerter for at forblive smukke og unge. Og lever der ikke i vore moderne ligestillingstider kvinder, der vil ofre alt for den eneste ene?Helhedsindtrykket af bogen er positivt: Lækkert layout, dejlige illustrationer og god lydkvalitet på cd’erne. Desuden og ikke uvæsentligt: Historien har ikke mistet for meget ved bearbejdningen. Da jeg sammen med Emil på 6 lyttede til ’Den lille havfrue’ observerede jeg stor koncentration hos drengen, og jeg kunne ikke sige mig fri for at blive grebet af havfruens skæbne – igen.Jeg vil gerne fremhæve at Kate Royster har evnet at bevare det eventyrlig. I "Den lille havfrue" genkendes den H.C. Andersenske melodi: Den sørgmodige stemning er bevaret, brugen af overordentlig mange adjektiver og ord som "mangen", "sorgfuld" osv. for ikke at tale om billedsproget: "fiskene svømmer ligesom fuglene flyver", "så dybt som flere kirketårne" og mere af samme fortryllende skuffe.Kate Royster er en dansk forfatter. Hun er uddannet cand.mag. i dansk og tysk fra Københavns Universitet og arbejdede i mange år for Dansk Flygtningehjælp, før hun debuterede i 2004. Hun har blandt andet skrevet flere romaner, henvendt til unge og voksne med læsevanskeligheder, der skal have mulighed for inspirerende læseoplevelser.
