Translate Indonesian Children’s Non-Fiction Book
Budget: $15 – $25 USD
I have a completed non-fiction manuscript written in Bahasa Indonesia for a young audience, and I’m ready to have it brought to life in another language. The text explains real-world concepts in a clear, engaging style suitable for children, so the translation must preserve accuracy while keeping the tone lively and age-appropriate.
What I need from you
• A polished, chapter-by-chapter translation of the full book (word count and file format to be confirmed once we connect).
• Consistent terminology and simple sentence structure that eight- to twelve-year-olds can grasp.
• Retention of headings, sub-headings, call-out boxes, and any existing page references so layout work remains straightforward.
• A brief glossary of key terms if you encounter words that need cultural or technical explanation.
Ideal background
You are fluent in Bahasa Indonesia and the target language you will be translating into, have previous experience with children’s or educational publishing, and can balance literal accuracy with engaging, kid-friendly prose.
When you reply, please share:
1. A short sample of your past book or educational translations.
2. Turnaround time for an estimated 25,000–30,000-word manuscript.
3. Your preferred rate structure (per word, per page, or flat fee).
I’m happy to answer any further questions about the content or schedule once we’re in touch, and I look forward to collaborating on a version that inspires young readers just as much as the original.
