A child who already read "Ada & #Zangemann" 7 times attended my reading today to hear me reading it and told me how great the book is. My reaction oscillated between ☺️, 🤗, and 🥰.
Completed the first of two Ada & #Zangemann readings today for school classes at #Nano in Potsdam, which is a great place to do experiments https://nano-potsdam.de/
"Curiosity and the Freedom to tinker naturally explains Free and Open Source Software in this light hearted children’s story. Why not have our ice cream machines that make every flavor and shape? Bravo @kirschner and Sandra for your excellent work."

Huge honour for me to receive such a feedback for "Ada & #Zangemann" by @brewsterkahle who founded archive.org and who is admired by #librarians around the world for his work! ☺️
On Thursday 16:00 I will do a German reading of "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream" at NANO, Am Kanal 57, 14467 #Potsdam.
It requires you to buy a ticket, but if you are active for #FreeSoftware or the #Fediverse you can reach out to me, and I can put you on the guest list.

Until 2 December you can get my English book "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream" with a **42% discount** directly from my US publisher @nostarch https://nostarch.com/ada-zangemann (if @nostarch@infosec.exchange had something to do with the number for the discount? I don't know 😉 )
Great to see that #CodeForNiederrhein managed to get in the public radio WDR5 with their "Ada & #Zangemann" readings https://www1.wdr.de/mediathek/audio/wdr5/wdr5-tagesgespraech/audio-vorlesen-welche-rolle-spielt-das-fuer-sie-100.html (from 40:28 in German). Big thanks to @derPUPE and the others there!! 😍 (Background here: https://chaos.social/@derPUPE/115561422784541625 )
Thank to to everyone who is today participating in the German National Reading Day and to everyone reading books to children on other days of the year. 👏
Especially those who read "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software , Skateboards 🛹 , and Raspberry Ice Cream 🍦 " to children and thereby spark their interest in coding! (Background: https://k7r.eu/reached-30k-children-experience-the-joy-of-helping-others-yourself/ ) 👏
Wow! Wow! Wow! So @derPUPE organised readings for Ada & #Zangemann and the @C4NRN crew managed to do a Turkish and Russian translation as well. This is so amazing! 🥰

Un #LinuxDay è niente se — una volta terminato — non trovi almeno una cartolina decorata da un bimbo, mentre si sorbiva i nostri talk.
Meno male che i gadget della @fsfe sono bellissimi!

Big thank you to @abbas_dp and the others in his group for doing the Persian translation of "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream". It is amazing how so many people are motivated to help with translations of @fsfe 's story!! https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/fsfe/ada-zangemann/ 👏👏👏👏
Freschi, freschi di catalogazione alla Biblioteca-Archivio "Vittorio Bobbato", la stessa che il 25 ottobre ospiterà il Linux Day pesarese — dove, insieme a me, ci sarà anche Luca Bonissi e l'immancabile gelato — sono disponibili due libri di Ada & Zangemann in italiano e arabo.
Nella biblioteca si tengono anche corsi di L2 (italiano per stranieri), pertanto pure l'edizione araba (إِنْ شَاءَ ٱللَّٰهُ) troverà numerosi clienti.

My children just helped me to stage a picture I can use in @fsfe presentations when I explain that "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream" started with bedtime stories we developed together about computers, software, and hardware. 🥰 #Tux
It is amazing to see so many volunteers contributing to translations of "Ada & #Zangemann - A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream" inspiring more children to tinker with technology 🤗
If you know people who might be interested to help with translations, you can point them directly to https://hosted.weblate.org/projects/fsfe/ada-zangemann/ .
A big thank you to the amazing @nicorikken who is providing tooling and help for so many of the translations! 👏
