I finished my second Esperanto book. It is a children's book. Check it out:

If you watch the video, you can see the contents of the book.

Congratulations!
It looks good, how did you design it? Who checked the Esperanto text?
The video doesn't really tell what the book is about, nor what age group is targeted, could you give a few hints about that?

1- I translated it and then edited the mistakes with a grammar checker. Then I had some volunteers from Lernu look over the text. The one who contributed the most was Evildea (the one who is presenting the book)

2- I took screen shots from a Creative Commons video. Search "Big Buck Bunny". Then I turned it into a story.

3- This is a book for a younger audience. It is supposed to be a bedtime story. The moral is that hurting others will result in punishment (a timeout). Also the evil character is evil because nobody loves him; so it implicitly suggests that the bad behavior is a result of an exclusive environment. In a way, it is meant to show the problems of the disenfranchisement.

Good for you. You noticed. I made the book with screenshots from this film.

But, I changed the story a bit. I suggested in the book that the negative emotions, which caused the bad behavior, was the result of disenfranchisement.

Its interesting, it even would be possible to make E-o voice (dubbed) movie in 4K/UHD quality. See peach.blender.org.

Yep. Great idea. Why not? If I was good in Esperanto, I would use a voice changer so that I could do all the voices myself and narrate the story.

I notice that people are always doing things the old fashion way. For example, there are still people out there programming websites, games, software, apps from scratch instead of leveraging existing tools.

Lots of Esperantists are waiting and hoping for an Esperanto movie. It isn't as hard or as costly as people think (if they use their creativity).

People create their own road blocks
