Ada from "Ada & Zangemann"
My version of the character Ada from "Ada & Zangemann", a Creative Commons license (BY-SA) book for children and a funny story about Free/Libre and Open-Source. It's written by Matthias Kirschner and illustrated by Sandra Brandstätter. It is great to see new characters in the Free Culture, especially because Ada is so cool.
You can find it printed in English, French, German, Italian → https://fsfe.org/activities/ada-zangemann/

Thank you Yann. I wish you a lot of good time reading and talking about the book with you daughter.

@kirschner The one-year-old likes it. She says 'Ada' (very toddler-friendly name) and imitates the screwdriver motion 🔩 😉

great stuff... I would love someone published it in Brazil

@fabiocosta0305 My experience with Pepper&Carrot is that if you translate the content first, and then show it to local publishers you can accelerate by a lot the process. But it's a lot of work. Maybe a local Free/Libre Software group or association could eases the workload; in any case, they prublished a translation guideline on their GIT repo: https://git.fsfe.org/FSFE/ada-zangemann/src/branch/main/Translation-Guidelines.md , a good entry door for that.

davidrevoy
@stemy Haha, ça pourrait être sympa en effet. ☺️

@stemy Il y a du Coriander dans l’air non ?

@amic @stemy Oui, clairement 😊 https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/viewer/sketchbook__2017-10-10_inktober2017_gigantic_by-David-Revoy.html

Just got the E-book, and it is truly amazing! The art style is awesome, and it covers a complex issue in an easy-to-digest way.
★davidrevoy
@3kh0 Oh yes, I really like how the message around Free/Libre Software (but hardware too) and liberty to modify hardware and software is subtle. Not in foreground at all but still the backbone of the story. They kept it entertaining with the skateboard and ice creams.

★Lovely!
Just bought the book as a Christmas present for my kid's classroom.

@kirschner @fsfe Ha, I'm happy you like it! 😍
I uploaded the hi-resolution and source on the "Misc" category of the gallery on Pepper&Carrot: https://www.peppercarrot.com/en/viewer/misc__2023-12-03_Ada-and-Zangemann_by-David-Revoy.html , I think there is enough pixel to print it the size you like. 😊
