Children’s chapter books are a similar process to our interior book design work for fiction and nonfiction. Please see our interior book design page for process and pricing.
Our planning service starts with a 1-hour phone or Zoom call to go over your book publishing strategy. We’ll go over questions like:
After our call, we will create a page storyboard for you. Whether you’ve already worked with an editor or you have a rough manuscript, we’ll help you plan the pages to effectively arrange your text. Authors often forget to include elements like the Title Page, Copyright Page, Dedication, About the Author and Illustrator, and possibly activity pages. If your printer requires a specific page count, it is important to plan ALL of these sections in advance. We will send you a PowerPoint or Word template that you can further revise with your editor and share with your illustrator for page planning purposes.
After your illustrations are complete, we would love to work with you on the final book design. But we also don’t mind if you choose to work with another designer. The page planning storyboard is all yours to keep.
Strategy call and storyboarding cost: $295
