Whether you call them children's books, kidlit or something else. We know kid books.
Publishing a children’s picture book is a completely different experience than publishing most other kinds of books because the story is told through both words and images working together. Every page turn has to be carefully planned so the pacing feels natural and exciting for young readers, and the illustrations often carry as much emotion and meaning as the text itself. Picture books also have unique formats, usually with a set number of pages, which means every word and every image needs to be chosen with care. On top of that, the quality of the paper, printing, and color really matters, since the visuals are what draw children into the story. And unlike other books, the audience isn’t just the child—it’s also parents, teachers, and librarians who decide what gets into children’s hands. All of these details make creating and publishing a picture book a wonderfully unique process that blends storytelling with art.
While the cost structure is similar to other types of books, we make sure to talk through every picture book project in detail. This helps ensure that everyone is on the same page and feels confident about the process before any work begins.
