An okay read
The 5 star rating and excellent price caught my attention. This was the first book I purchased on the subject of writing children's books. It's nice and thin, for easy portability, but lacks the punch I've seen in several other titles. There is some good information inside, however. I especially like the way the author points out a child's viewpoint and offers clear explanations for adults. While good instruction on writing a story and getting it publishes is here, I yearned for a little more completeness. It felt as though this was a primer on the subject instead of a true encyclopedia. I found the organization of the material to be chaotic, but it's a good beginning book.
You can't beat the price, however, and if you're looking to dip your toes in the water, this is a good place ...

Meaty essentials
It's awfully hard to find any information--at all--about self-publishing children's books. This meaty little guide has essential points that makes a challenging venture go much more smoothly. From the writing considerations to the business aspects, this book has lots of bang for the buck.

This book helped me get published as it made me realize some mistakes I was making about finding the right audience for my writing. There are so many areas. Some have more competition than others. This gives some information about several different types of writing and lots of places to get more information online and in other books. The author's website shows that she has published 9 books now and the 10th one is coming out soon. The book is a basic guide so readers shouldn't expect it to be an extensive resource. I needed this guide to help me find the right direction and review my skills.
