Translate Spanish Kids' History Book
Budget: €6 – €12 EUR
I have a completed children’s book written in Spanish that teaches 9- to 12-year-olds about key historical events. I now need the entire manuscript rendered into clear, engaging English while preserving its educational tone and every cultural detail woven into the story.
The original text is around 8,000 words. It includes short sidebars that explain dates, places and personalities, so the English version must read naturally for upper-elementary readers yet remain faithful to the facts. Jokes, idioms and country-specific references appear in several chapters; I’d like equivalent expressions in English rather than literal word-for-word copying.
To help you, I can supply the Spanish manuscript in Word, plus any author notes that clarify context.
Deliverables
• Fully translated Word document, mirroring the original layout and headings
• A brief glossary or translator’s notes for names, dates or terms that might need teacher explanation
I will review the first translated chapter before you proceed with the rest, to confirm style and reading level are on point. Please let me know your timeframe to complete the initial sample and the full book.
