<![CDATA[Ella's Adventures - Updates]]>Sun, 26 Apr 2026 06:53:39 -0700Weebly<![CDATA[Book sales are still strong ....]]>Fri, 15 Oct 2021 21:44:49 GMThttps://www.ellasadventures.com.au/updates/book-sales-are-still-strongDespite very strong lockdowns in Australia, the interest in Ella's story is still strong. We reached nearly 3000 books now. I am currently focusing all my energy to put the Project Sevententh together, which is one of the core missions to be funded by the sales of the book. 
Sevententh is all about protecting the Great Barrier Reef, inspiration, education, science and acting where help is needed right now. Updates will come shortly! 
Thank you for all of you that supported so far

I want to introduce the Turtle project on Lissenung Island, which I have visited 2015. Dietmar and Ange including their local crew are doing an amazing job to educate and involve communities into important conservation projects, such as relocating turtle nests to keep them save from poachers, conducting beach cleanups and school visits. 
Ellas Adventures has committed and completed a contribution of $10.000 to the project. I can't thank you enough.

The first book are making it to Australia right now, then Europe and the US will be last. All of this should be completed within the next couple of weeks, depending how smooth the customs procedure will be. 
As you can imagine, i am beyond exciting to finally reach this point. I cannot wait to have the first projects funded and get the important work done! 
In this image on the right you can see the first proud moment when i got to read the sample book to my little girl Naia. (her first ever word was Turtle)
​Thank you

It took several weeks and many different viewpoints to finally handing the files over to the printer. I hired professional proofreaders/editors, engaged teachers, scientists and parents until everybody was happy. Quite a process. For the past week I have dealt with the printer to adjust all of the technical aspects. 
Now I am waiting for the last colour proofs, then I should have an ETA. I have set up storage in the US, in Germany and Australia, possibly Malaysia. 
​I am also currently finalising the first projects to be supported. I will update on them very soon! Hugs from Downunder!

Let me start with apologising for the delay. The proofreading in two languages took a lot more effort than i could have ever expected. But, we are at the tail end of it. Some art tuning over the next couple of days then we are done. I have also added another VERY exciting feature to the book, which will give you the sound & visual effects on selected sites, by a simple QR code placement. All you need to do, is scan the page with your mobile device, and you will learn even more about the underwater world. 
Thank you for your patience! 
ALSO: I have added 3 more t-shirt designs to the shop which are available right now. Each shirt will be printed by ourself for each order, in Cairns. Same as for the book, the proceeds are used to fund selected ocean conservation projects.

Thank you for every single one that trusted in me so far by pre-ordering my Book. 
I am currently in the final stage and gave my book into the hands of a professional editor/proofreader! This process shouldn't take to long. The next step is getting it printed. Yay! 
Thank you for your patience ... we are getting close!
