Spanish Children’s Book Translation
Budget: $8 – $15 AUD
I have written a picture book in Spanish for preschoolers (ages 3-5) with bright, colorful cartoon illustrations on every spread. I now need an English version that feels just as lively and, above all, stays educational without slipping into overly formal language.
Your task is to take the existing Spanish text and deliver a fluent, engaging English manuscript that matches the pacing of each illustrated page. Short sentences, clear vocabulary, and a friendly teaching vibe are essential so parents or teachers can use the story as a learning tool. Cultural references should be adapted only when they help little readers understand the message; otherwise, keep the original spirit intact.
Please send back:
• A polished English manuscript in Word or Google Docs, page-by-page to align with the artwork.
• Any translator’s notes where wordplay or concepts required creative shifts so I can review with my editor.
Experience translating children’s material or early-learning content will stand out, and familiarity with picture-book cadence is a plus.
