A Different Kind of Beginning
Every great story starts with a “Why.” Ours started when I realized that the publishing world was missing something vital.
While searching through the vast landscape of self-publishing, I noticed a recurring pattern: there were plenty of companies that could help you publish a memoir, a business book, or a thriller. But when it came to the unique, vibrant, and complex world of children’s books? There was a void.
I saw authors with beautiful, world-changing stories for kids being treated like just another number in a “general” system. I saw formatting that didn’t respect the art, and storytelling that didn’t quite grasp the psychology of a child. That’s when the vision for Children Book Publish was born. I decided we wouldn’t be “jacks of all trades.” We would be masters of one: the children’s book.
Why "General" Publishing Isn’t Enough for Kids' Books
Publishing a children’s book isn’t like publishing a novel. You aren’t just dealing with text; you are managing the delicate dance between words and imagery. You’re navigating complex layouts, specific paper weights, and the shorter attention spans of young readers.
Most authors find themselves frustrated when they work with general publishers who don’t understand that a picture book requires a different soul than a textbook.
Children Book Publish was built to solve this. We assembled a team that lives and breathes children’s literature. We understand that your book isn’t just a product. it’s a teaching tool, a bedtime comfort, and a child’s first window into a bigger world. We provide the specialized guidance that generalists simply can’t offer, ensuring your book stands out on a shelf full of “standard” titles.
Specialized Storytelling & Editing
Children’s writing is an art form. It requires rhythm, specific vocabulary levels, and an emotional resonance that speaks to a child’s logic. Our writers and editors are specialists in this field, helping you refine your message so it lands perfectly with your target age group.
Complex Formatting & Design
Unlike a standard black-and-white novel, a children’s book is a visual experience. We handle the complex formatting—wrap-around text, bleed margins, and vibrant color profiles—that ensures your book looks professional and feels “high-end” in a child’s hands.
Marketing for the "Parent & Child" Duo
We don’t just market to readers; we market to the parents, teachers, and librarians who choose the books. Our marketing specialists know exactly how to position your book to reach the adults who are looking for quality content for their little ones.
The "Extra Layer" of Child Psychology
This is what sets us apart. We collaborate with children’s psychologists to review our projects. This ensures that the messages we send are positive, age-appropriate, and aligned with the best developmental practices. We aren’t just publishing books; we are guarding the future.
