You don't need a jackhammer to break into the Children's Picture Book market - just this informative guide chock-full of road-tested writing and publishing tips.
Perhaps you've noticed that kids are not adults!
Those cherished 'wee' readers comprise a book market with very special reading tastes and requirements.
While it's true that certain children's classic books are still cherished by today's new crop of young readers, it's also true that tastes have changed and writing for today's children's marketplace differs vastly from even as recent as a decade ago.
A picture book is great fun to write but if you really want to Write It Right you must educate yourself about the possible pitfalls.
What is right for adult readers is not right for kids.
It's a different market with different nuances and you've got to learn the ropes before your pen hits the paper (or fingers fire up your laptop).
