Can you summarize into a shorter version for tutorial purposes? 

This is a summary of a wikipedia article about two enslaved African princes:

Little Ephraim Robin John and Ancona Robin John were members of the ruling family in Old Calabar, Nigeria. They were kidnapped and sold into slavery. The men were eventually captured by British slave traders and taken to the Caribbean and Virginia. While enslaved, they petitioned for their freedom in a British court and won. After being freed, they returned to Calabar and converted to Christianity.

Can you put the summary into 1,000 words?

The article is short and can be summarized in under 200 words.

I need a longer version to be put into a children's book for ages 7 to 10.

Sure, here is a longer version of the summary that is more suitable for a children's book for ages 7 to 10:

Once upon a time, in a faraway land called Africa, there lived two princes named Little Ephraim and Ancona Robin John. They were not ordinary princes; they were part of a royal family who ruled over a kingdom called Old Calabar.

One sunny day, while playing outside the palace, Little Ephraim and Ancona Robin John met some strangers. These strangers were ship captains, and they seemed friendly. They told the princes stories about amazing places they had visited and promised to take them on a grand adventure. Excited by the prospect of seeing the world, the princes decided to join the captains on their journey.


However, the captains were not who they seemed. They were cruel men who captured people from their homes and sold them into slavery. Little Ephraim and Ancona Robin John were tricked and taken far away from their family and home. They ended up in a place called the Caribbean, where they were forced to work long hours under the hot sun.

Even though they were enslaved, Little Ephraim and Ancona Robin John never gave up hope of returning to Africa. They remembered the stories their parents had told them about their homeland and dreamed of one day seeing it again. They also made friends with other enslaved people who shared their dream of freedom.

One day, the princes met a kind stranger who helped them understand the laws of the land. With this new knowledge, Little Ephraim and Ancona Robin John decided to fight for their freedom. They went to court and explained to the judge that they were not slaves, but princes who had been kidnapped.

The judge listened carefully to their story and saw that they were honest and brave. He ruled in their favor, and Little Ephraim and Ancona Robin John were finally free! They wasted no time and set sail back to Africa, where they were joyfully reunited with their family.

Back in Old Calabar, the princes were hailed as heroes. They had shown incredible courage and determination in their fight for freedom. They also learned a valuable lesson about the importance of never giving up on hope, no matter how difficult things seem.
