Spanish Children’s Stories Translation
Budget: $10 – $20 NZD
I have a small collection of short children’s stories written in Spanish and I need them rendered into clear, engaging English without losing their playful tone. Each story is only a few pages long, yet they rely on simple word-play, rhythm and gentle humour that must feel natural to an English-speaking child.
Because the original audience is very young, I want the sentences to remain short and vivid, with vocabulary that early readers can grasp. Cultural details—names of treats, games, sayings—may stay as they are or be adapted if you believe that will make the tale flow better; feel free to flag any element that you think needs a creative tweak so we can decide together.
Please submit:
• A polished English version of every story in a separate .docx file, mirroring paragraph breaks and basic formatting.
• A brief translator’s note (bullet or paragraph form is fine) pointing out any cultural choices or puns that required special handling.
Let me know your earliest turnaround time and a sample of similar work if you have it.
