It really helps as an entry to start children's books
Customer Rating:
I love all the dummy book series and this is one of the best. It guides you step by step and gives you a notion of children's book, how to start and publish your book. Although, I wish the book had more explanation about illustrations as I try both writing and illustrating.
Yep! Gotta have it!
