Children’s Book Formatting
Your story and artwork. A book file ready for upload.
Choose hands-on formatting help that fits the stage of your children's book. Both options include paperback interior and cover formatting, plus one consolidated feedback and revision round.
Basic Formatting — keep it as it is
For creators happy with their finished text, illustrations and design direction who need the files prepared for upload.
- Bring your final manuscript, illustrations and existing cover artwork.
- We preserve your content and agreed page order while setting up the interior layout, trim size, margins and bleed.
- We format your supplied cover artwork for the agreed paperback specifications.
- You receive the interior PDF and separate cover PDF for your own KDP upload, with one feedback/revision round within the agreed formatting scope.
Review + Recommendations + Formatting
For creators who want another set of eyes before the final layout is built.
- We review your supplied text and visuals for clarity, page flow, readability and layout opportunities.
- You receive practical recommendations before we format the interior and cover.
- We apply the agreed changes and build the paperback interior and cover files.
- You review the draft and send one consolidated round of feedback; we revise and hand over the interior PDF and separate cover PDF for your upload.

Email colorandgrowlearningpress@gmail.com with the option you want, estimated page count, book size if known, your current files or a sample, and your hoped-for timeline. Tell us whether your text, illustrations and cover artwork are complete.
We'll review the project and confirm the price, exact deliverables and delivery date before you purchase or work begins.
What to know before we start
This offer uses your supplied text and artwork. Original illustration, new cover artwork, ghostwriting and a full developmental or copy edit are outside the standard scope. The review option includes recommendations and agreed changes, not an unlimited rewrite. One feedback/revision round means one consolidated set of comments within the agreed project scope.
You keep control of your KDP account and upload the final files yourself. Final files are prepared for the agreed specifications; KDP's checks, a print proof and your final approval remain part of publishing. Platform approval and book sales are not guaranteed.
