 Subject: translation query
 
Hello,
I'm looking for a Russian-English translator. I need to translate an
educational guide book for parents with small children. I need a
translator to satisfy the following requirements: the person should be a
native English speaker and currently live in the US, should have a
teaching education and some reference to literature, and should have
small children or have some reference to them.
I attach a small test translation to check your competence. These are 2
small children rhymes: one in Russian and one in English (324 signs).
Please translate them rhyming.  Please also send me the price for the
guide book (no rhymes, 65 pages, A6 format). If you are interested in my
offer please contact me. If not, could you please forward this message
to someone who may do it.
Best regards,
 
Ekaterina Sorokina

1. ЕЖИКИ СМЕЮТСЯ
У канавки
Две козявки
Продают ежам булавки.

А ежи-то хохотать!
Всё не могут перестать:
"Эх вы, глупые козявки!
Нам не надобны булавки:
Мы булавками сами утыканы".
 
2. The itsy bitsy spider
The itsy bitsy spider went up the water spout,
Down came the rain and washed the spider out.
Our came the sun and dried up all the rain,
And the itsy bitsy spider climbed up the spout again.
