Apparently the Harry Potter children's books were published in a
special edition for the US; see, e.g.,
http://home.comcast.net/~helenajole/Harry.html, a website that
presents a diff of the two versions.  (You don't get the rest of the
text, of course.)  Example:

    They had drawn for the house cup
    They had tied for the house cup

It may be important to you that the "translation" direction is B -> A.
 There may be other such books.  Apologies if this was already pointed
out; I haven't followed the thread too carefully.
