I know that the App Inventor (O'Reilly) is available for free online under a Creative Commons license. Are there any other free online App Inventor books (in any language)?

Here are two..
Absolute App Inventor 2: Android Programming for all ages Kindle Edition
and another version of it https://rm3bukz.ga/read.php?id=Q4GxBgAAQBAJ
Here are some resources to help you learn to use the AI2 tools. A very good way to learn App Inventor is to read the free Inventor's Manual here in the AI2 free online eBook http://www.appinventor.org/book2 ... the links are at the bottom of the Web page. The book 'teaches' users how to program with AI2 blocks.
There is a free programming course here http://www.appinventor.org/content/CourseInABox/Intro and the aia files for the projects in the book are here: http://www.appinventor.org/bookFiles
How to do a lot of basic things with App Inventor are described here: http://www.appinventor.org/content/howDoYou/eventHandling .
Also look here http://kio4.com/appinventor/index.htm and here http://www.imagnity.com/tutorial-index/ for more tutorials.
Learn about components http://ai2.appinventor.mit.edu/reference/components/
and visit the Library http://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/library Help>Library on the MENU
And some of these books https://appinventor.mit.edu/explore/books might be free (but probably are not).
If you buy a book, make sure it is for App Inventor 2; there are plenty of books about the original App Inventor that are highly discounted... do NOT buy one of these older books, they are useless.

Thank you! I'm working on updating free-programming-books.
and another version of it https://rm3bukz.ga/read.php?id=Q4GxBgAAQBAJ
Do we know that this copy is authorized?

I'll keep that in mind.
