I have written a children’s picture book. How do I proceed with having it edited and illustrated? Following the correct procedure in having your children’s book edited and illustrated can be the difference between your title becoming a literary as well as financial success or not. Mistakes at this point of the process are almost always costly so it is best to have your battle plan in place before you go forward.

Step 1 - Choosing an Illustrator >> Step 2 - Choosing a Format >> Step 3 - Character Development >> Step 4 - Character Placement & Story Development >> Step 5 - Wrapping Things Up

As a new children’s book publisher, choosing the right children’s book illustrators to illustrate your book is one of the most important decisions you will make. While there are thousands of child book illustrators, charging anywhere from $3500 to $10,000 to illustrate a 32 page children’s book, we have assembled a group of qualified children’s book illustrators who are just as talented yet charge significantly less. Remember, illustrators have different styles. Be sure to choose a style that matches the vision you have for your book.
