As authors you can elect to do a coloring book or children's picture book or a combination of the two.

If your manuscript has few pages one way to flesh it out is by doing a combination book as we did on the book on this page.  This system adds value for the customer and helps make more sales.

 

Some people elect to sell the book themselves through various avenues while others also put it on Amazon which is the biggest book seller in the world.  Putting the book on Amazon does not cost you anything as they print each book as it is sold and pay you a royalty.  The amount of the royalty depends on the price you elect for your book.  They have a chart which shows you how much you receive for USA sales and sales in other countries.   Also, the book can be made available to libraries and other book sellers on the Internet.  We are not connected with Amazon.  This is informational only.
