How to Write a GREAT Children’s Book

Written on November 4, 2006 – 12:14 pm | by Wordpreneur |

How to Write a GREAT Children's BookDid you know that children’s books are the most over submitted manuscripts in the publishing industry and less than a quarter of one percent of all submissions are ever published?

Why is this?

Simply because almost everyone assumes that writing children’s books is so easy, they don’t listen to good advice!

So what’s the secret? It’s actually blindingly obvious: In order to get your children’s book published, you MUST give children’s publishers EXACTLY what they want.

Robyn Opie, author of 55 published titles, shares her knowledge and experience with you to help increase your chances of success in this highly rewarding genre. This comprehensive book will show you:

  • What you need to consider before you start writing your book
  • The different types of children’s books
  • Why children’s fiction is different from other fiction
  • What is important in children’s fiction
  • How to create believable characters
  • How to write realistic dialogue
  • How to make sure your reader is ‘hooked’ after the first two pages
  • How to show your reader instead of telling them
  • Plotting and creating your book
  • Editing and polishing your work to a professional standard
  • The most common problems of novice writers

…and more, including “technical” information like formatting, preparing, and submitting your manuscript to publishers.

Save yourself a lot of time and trouble and quickly learn from Robyn’s experience and “sweat equity.” Everything you need to know about successfully writing children’s books is only a click away!
