obvious but different age ranges have different reading levels that you\u2019ll need to reflect on.\u00a0 Knowing your audience before you begin writing your children\u2019s book will help you better determine what type of children\u2019s book it should be.<\/p>\n<p>There is a common age group breakdown used by publishers and authors alike when it comes to books for children:<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Ages 2-8: <\/strong>Pictures Books<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"post_bullets\">\n<li>These are image exclusive and often have less than 500 words per book.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Ages 5-9: <\/strong>Easy Readers\/Just Beginning To Read<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"post_bullets\">\n<li>This age group for children\u2019s books focuses on one theme with simple sentence structure.\u00a0 Your word choice should be repetitive to engage with the reader.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Ages 7-10:<\/strong> First Chapter Books<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"post_bullets\">\n<li>The reading level of this age group is more advanced and ready to take on a few thousand words.\u00a0 These books often have more complex storylines woven through several characters.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Ages 8-12: <\/strong>Middle-Grade Books\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul class=\"post_bullets\">\n<li>When you start climbing into middle school-aged children then your book should really start thinking about eliminating most of the pictures and aim for upwards of 40,000 words.\u00a0 The books in this range usually have the protagonist as the same age as the reader.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Once you figure out who your desired audience is then you can begin tailoring your book to fit the audience.\u00a0 As the age groups increase, the children\u2019s book will likely begin to have higher word counts and chapter-length stories.\u00a0 It\u2019s important that your audience is researched before jumping into your book because it will help with the rest of the writing process.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong>Illustrations and Art<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>After you figure out what age group you will focus on with your children\u2019s book, you\u2019ll want to start building out the illustrations.\u00a0 The illustrations will aid the child in following along with the story and will be at the forefront when it comes to picture books for the younger demographic.\u00a0 Most picture books are a standard <a href=\"https:\/\/www.darcypattison.com\/writing\/picture-books\/picture-book-standards-32-pages\/\">32-page<\/a> tale so you\u2019ll be limited with space and want to focus on eye-catching characters that tell the story.\u00a0 One of the key benefits when you decide to print with PrintingCenterUSA is the flexibility on page counts\u2013a saddle-stitch book can range from 8 to 92 pages!<\/p>\n<p

children at a young age are attracted to <a href=\"https:\/\/sciencing.com\/do-bright-colors-appeal-kids-5476948.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">bright colors<\/a> so you\u2019ll want to recognize the fact that colors should play a major role in your book.\u00a0 Colors that work exceptionally well for children\u2019s books are your classic primary colors of red, blue and yellow.<\/p>\n<p>If you think of yourself more of the author portion of the children\u2019s book and don\u2019t have outstanding illustrative skills, consider hiring a professional artist.\u00a0 Choosing an illustrator with a strong following will also help you market your soon to be book!<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #00bbff;\">What is Full-Bleed

Voice\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Children\u2019s books don\u2019t have to be overly simple.\u00a0 Often, first-time authors will get carried away with the fact that they are writing for children.\u00a0 The voice then begins to sound very diminutive as if they are talking to a foolish adult. Try to avoid this tone.<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll also need to think about the use of adjectives and sentences that are pieced together.\u00a0 Think about how children talk to their parents when working with dialogue in your story so it\u2019s fluid.\u00a0 Make sure your book reads as a child talks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong>Character and Background Development<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Your characters should be developed in a way that matches the age group of your children\u2019s book.\u00a0 This is also true for the background and setting of the book. In most cases, the places in the story should be somewhat relatable to scenes in the child\u2019s life already.\u00a0 Schools, grocery stores and parks are great examples to add in key chapters of your book. Adding these locations will make the story more than just a one-time read.<\/p>\n<p>Characters should change and grow from beginning to end in the book.\u00a0 Make them exciting so that you don\u2019t lose focus on other parts of the book that don\u2019t matter as much.\u00a0 Try to remember what it was like reading books as a kid and focus on honing the development of the character throughout the story.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-size: 18px;\"><strong>Beginning, Middle and End<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>A good children\u2019s book will have an evident beginning, middle, and end.\u00a0 This helps the child reading the book grow and learn along with the main character.\u00a0 There should be a problem or incident the main character needs to solve from the beginning.\u00a0 That leads to the middle which is the ups and downs of how the character goes about solving the problem.\u00a0 Stories need conflict, however subtle they are if the characters are to grow as the book progresses. Be sure the main character successfully solves or concludes the problem at the end\u2026 no cliffhangers!<\/p>\n<p>Children\u2019s books are not an easy task to take on, especially if you\u2019re a first-time author.\u00a0 It may seem like an easy task at the beginning but if you want it to be a book worth reading, you should really put some thought into the process.\u00a0 It\u2019s not all about rhyming and fun illustrations. As a writer, you\u2019ll need to research, plan and execute before you decide to print. Printing the books without a publisher will make you the marketer as well if you plan on selling the book.\u00a0 So, planning a marketing strategy will also come into play once you have your final copies.<\/p>\n<p>Once you have the text and images, PrintingCenterUSA will be here to help with the printing process.\u00a0 You can drag and drop with our free <a href=\"https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/Design\/Mediaclip\/MediaclipDesigner.html\">online design tool <\/a>or simply upload your PDF ready proof.\u00a0 You write the book and we\u2019ll print it!<\/p>\n<p><strong><span style=\"color: #00bbff;\">Instant Booklet Pricing<\/span>:<\/strong>\u00a0<span style=\"color: #f7008c;\"><a style=\"color: #f7008c;\" href=\"https:\/\/www.printingcenterusa.com\/printing\/booklet-printing\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Learn More<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--kg-card-end: html--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Remember all those fantastic and colorful children\u2019s books you read as a kid?\u00a0 They told stories in ways children can comprehend and relate.
