10,000+ Languages and Accents: The Johann Sebastian Bach Coloring Book With the Short Biography About the Composer

Is that actually possible? And how is something like this supposed to work? Let's say you are a Chinese mom, or a Mexican dad of two kids, and your English is perfect. However, Xi and Manolito don't speak English yet, because their native language is Spanish, respectively Chinese. If that's the case, then just order this coloring book with the mini short biography in Spanish or in Chinese. You order, we "electronically handcraft" these 47 pages, and we send everything – after our joint work with the translation – to you in Mexico or to China. Or also to France, Spain, India or Israel. Or to Turkey, to the Maldives, to Greenland or to Peru. Or alternatively ... you print the result yourself: That is much less expensive!

However ... 10,000 languages and dialects! How exactly does that work? Printed by "Bach 4 You" and for only a few Euros more. If you print it yourself, it is only a little more expensive than a German/English copy: It is exactly 15 €* more (... check here, what's that today in your currency). Our goal is to spread the life, the work as well as the music of Johann Sebastian Bach even more intensively to many interested people and also children all over the world. The mentioned miniature short biography, which can always be found to the left of the drawings for coloring and at the same time contains only about 500 words, is not particularly difficult to translate into all languages and into all dialects of the earth. But now ... comes the catch:

For all music fans and Bach fans who would like to have this little coloring book with the mini short biography in every foreign language imaginable and also in every dialect (... so also in Bavarian and Swabian dialect), however unusual it may be, I suggest a little adventure together. For this purpose, there is a translation base on this website. You speak German or English? If not, you wouldn't be able to read this. So you already have these less than 500 words (... here they are again, less than 500 words). Okay, you now "invest" a round half hour of your time and "translate" the coloring book text. You then send us your translation as a WORD file, and we copy that into your coloring book and then upload the result to the cloud. And there you load it "down", from the cloud, your copy. And print it out yourself. In India, in Israel, in Arabia, in India, in Japan and in Papua New Guinea. As often as you like. It's that simple. Here you can see an example.

However, the delivery time (... only if you want us to print your coloring book) may take a few days longer, and remember: The offer (... in all languages except English and German) is – actually – not a printed book on paper, it is a download of PDF files, and you print it as many times as you want or as many times as your child messes up the drawings. However, you can also get it as a real paper book. But if you order just one copy, it's much more expensive than a download copy. The price doubles. If you order ten copies, we offer you the same price you pay for ten German/English copies. Is that a suggestion? Isn't that a cool offer?

Is there a funnier way to approach the work and life of Johann Sebastian Bach, than with such a coloring book plus a really short Bach short biography?

A Cool Edition Number: One Printed Bach Coloring Book

Of course, there is the mentioned option of having only one coloring book printed as an "edition of only one" – so to speak – on paper and then also bound. German law supports the distribution of books and press products by allowing the so-called "Book Mailing" as a possible low-cost form of shipping. And that is only € 2.00* postage to any country in the world. So, one copy of the coloring book in your language costs: € 6.99 (... basis price) + € 15.00 (... to embed your translation) + € 7.50* (... printing of just 1 copy) + € 2.00* (... S&H). So all the fun in Hindi, Arabic, Korean and Norwegian will cost you € 31.49* (... check here what that is in your currency, today) ... "to your front door". As a download you pay some € 10* less, which is € 21.99*! As for you printed copies, of course, each one costs less and less, because the integration of your translation is only once, but unfortunately there is a quantity discount in our print shop only from 100 pieces. That's why ten coloring books cost € 100.99*. So, one costs € 10.09*. Compared to € 2.19* per coloring book if you print it yourself.

Are You Looking for a Real Extended Biography About Bach for Children? Then You Are Right Here, Too!

Yes, in this Bach biography above there is "a little more" text, and actually you can not color something. It's a total of 172 pages, many great illustrations and this book has its own website. Would you like to stop by there sometime?

1 Bach Coloring Book in Every Foreign Language Version (Except English) Is € 31.49* (... incl. S&H). In German/English, It Is Only € 6.99* Plus S&H 

Exciting is the price per copy, if you want to share the amount with ten parents, or with your best friends, or even better, with a whole kindergarten (... if you prefer the paper and shipping variant). With ten parents in a kindergarten this order costs € 6.99* basic price, the processing of your desired language € 15*, the copy still € 3.99* and finally postage and packing € 4.80*. Together this is only € 66.69* and thus a copy is even 33 cents cheaper than the variant in German and English. Much, much cheaper is the PDF version. Then it is € 6.99* basic price and € 15* for the inclusion of your desired language. Together this adds up to € 22* ... so per "booklet" only € 2,22*. Yes, of course ... You still have to print and sort all the copies yourself. And the paper is necessary as well as the color ... but it is almost only black ink.

Two Languages Are Already Existing!

Just check it in the navigation on the right side, if the coloring book already exists in exactly the language you want. That is, whether it is already available in the translated version as a short mini-biography. If that is the case, you will even save the money for preparing the version in your desired language. So, if the coloring book already exists in the language of your choice, click the link below and get a feeling for what such a version looks like. But if the version does not yet exist in the language you would like it to be in, then perhaps this "joint adventure" will begin. But it won't be that expensive. If the translation already exists, it will cost you ... nothing. How is that possible? It would have been your job to translate these few sentences. Click here to view a complete, translated, text.

This would be a family adventure: You translate into the language you want, your kids then color the work, and afterwards the grandparents get to hang the framed works on their wall ... or at least one or two of them.

What Do We Do With Errors in Your Translation?

It's really easy: You just correct the mistakes, because we'll send you a proof version. And that before you get the complete work as a PDF file.  And we do the same before we order the printing. You check, you give us the "green light" and then there will be no more errors in the text when you hold your "Bach work" in your hands.

That's going to be a coloring fun.

Swabian, Bavarian, New York Accent or Australian 

There are about 25 languages that we don't consider a challenge at all. Ukrainian, Urdu, Hindi, Hebrew and Arabic, however, are in a different "league"! Let's assume that you are enthusiastic about the idea "Bach Coloring Book in your language". And you order. You pay and then you are patient for a little while. Namely, if it is not a variant that already exists "in stock" with us. We then order – in our print shop – exactly 1 coloring book (... or more, if you want more) and a few days later "your edition" is ready here in the publishing house to be sent ... to you. Important: If there is already a translation, the download is as costly, respectively as inexpensive, as the download in English and in German: namely € 6,99*. To order it printed on paper – as a booklet – takes a little longer and is of course also more expensive. The prices are listed above and below.

The translation costs you nothing (... you translate ...). But the inclusion of your text does! This first layout of the first version in a language plus one copy is not so affordable. The first coloring book in any foreign language and in any dialect then costs € 6.99* (... basic price), plus € 15* (... incorporation of your translation) plus € 7.50* (... for the printing costs per copy) and of course postage and packing is added at € 2.00*.

Each additional coloring book – printed here in Germany for you – costs of course then much, much less (... calculated per copy): Unfortunately, there is no discount for "exciting quantities": Only from an order of 100 pieces our print shop prints for less.  The postage is a maximum of € 4.80*. For the incorporation of your desired language we charge – of course – only once. And the basic amount is also charged only once. But it is much more exciting and faster for you to print when you need five or ten or 25 copies.  Because then it's only the basic price (€ 6.99*) and the inclusion of your translation (€ 15.00*). Together this is around € 22*, so with ten printouts only € 2.20* each.

Swabian, Bavarian and New York Accent ... or Australian

Absolutely serious, it works the same way. And it's not only possible to produce it in such common accents like Bavarian or Saxonian. You can order this little Bach Coloring Book with the little Bach Miniature Biography even in every Himalaya accent or in Switzerland German. And even in every Chinese accent.

How something like this works? Again with the small teamwork. And that's fun for us. That is, we want to first check with you whether something like this works at all. So, how does it work? Well, you receive the 24 short texts from us in English or in German, which you translate. So that we can find our way around in your language, each short section has a number, and it only works if you send us a WORD file with your translation. Each number plus text! We then "puzzle" the result to the appropriate places . We don't even know what we are doing, because we only follow the numbers from the moment your translation arrives. And with that the download is done, or we now order the coloring book. Or even two. Or even three. However: Before that, you will receive the text we have adopted. For checking.
