Child’s Play Publishing Package

Let Us Publish Your Book for You

Your illustrations and book are complete (or nearly complete).

Now you just need your book published properly.

Instead of figuring out ISBNs, platforms, categories, keywords, uploads and proofs yourself…

You simply provide your final book files and details.

And we handle the rest.

Here’s Exactly What’s Included

The Child’s Play Publishing Package is a done-for-you publishing service designed specifically for picture book authors.

You provide the completed files. We take care of the technical publishing process professionally and strategically.

1. We Provide Your ISBNs and Barcodes

Every book needs an ISBN (International Standard Book Number). It’s the unique identifier for your book.

You need one for each format: paperback, hardcover, ebook.

That’s already three. In the U.S., a single ISBN costs $125.
A bundle of 10 costs $295.

We provide your ISBNs for you.

We’ll also generate your barcodes, ready for your back cover.

No navigating ISBN websites. No confusion. No extra purchases.

2. Strategic Categories and Keywords

Categories and keywords can make or break your book’s discoverability.

If your book isn’t positioned correctly, readers won’t find it.

We use professional tools (including Publisher Rocket) along with our expertise in the children’s book market to select strong, strategic categories and keywords for your book.

This gives your book the best possible chance of being discovered.

The majority of authors we’ve published hit #1 in at least one category.

3. A Professional, Optimised Book Description

When someone clicks on your book, the next thing they read is your description.

The description plays a huge role in whether they buy… or move on.

We craft a professionally optimised, sales-focused book description designed to:

  • Clearly position your book for the right reader
  • Highlight the emotional hook and key benefits
  • Build excitement and trust
  • Encourage action

Because if your cover gets the click, your description needs to close the deal.

4. Full Upload to KDP and IngramSpark

We upload your book to:

KDP (Kindle Direct Publishing – Amazon)
IngramSpark (expanded distribution to bookstores and libraries)

All files set up correctly.

All details entered properly.

Everything handled for you.

5. Digital Print Proof Check

Before your book goes live, we carefully check your first digital proof from both platforms.

This helps catch:

  • Formatting issues
  • Margin problems
  • Cover alignment concerns
  • Technical errors

So you can avoid costly or embarrassing mistakes.

6. Five Book Mockups

We also create five beautiful digital book mockups using your cover and interior images.

They’re promotional graphics you can use on:

  • Amazon
  • Social media
  • Your website
  • Marketing materials

They instantly elevate your presentation.

In Simple Terms…

We:
• Provide your ISBNs
• Generate your barcodes
• Strategically choose your categories and keywords
• Write your professional book description
• Upload your book to KDP and IngramSpark
• Check your digital proof
• Create five promotional book mockups

We handle the entire publishing process for you.

You hand us your finished book. We publish it properly.

Investment

$1,200

This is the full investment for the Child’s Play Publishing Package.

Professional publishing companies often charge significantly more for similar services, especially when ISBNs, strategic positioning, and proof checks are included.

Here, you receive focused, picture-book-specific publishing support done properly from the start.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes.

Your manuscript and illustrations need to be final (or very close to final), with your interior and cover files ready.

This package is for publishing your completed book, not for editing, illustrating, or revising.

You will need to open your own KDP and IngramSpark accounts, as these must be in your name.

The setup process is straightforward, similar to creating any standard online account, and we’ll guide you on exactly what to do.

Once your accounts are created, we handle the publishing setup for you.

Absolutely.

You retain full ownership of your book, your files, and your rights. The ISBN will also be registeredunder your imprint (publisher) name.

We are simply handling the publishing setup on your behalf.

There are advantages to owning your own ISBNs, including greater control and flexibility. For one, if you use a free KDP ISBN and you publish anywhere else, you’ll have more than one ISBN, which is not ideal.

With this package, your ISBNs are provided for you, so you don’t have to purchase them separately or figure out what you need.

We check your digital proofs carefully before publishing and flag any issues we see.

However, we do not redesign or reformat your files. Your files should already be professionally prepared.

This package focuses on publishing setup.

However, we do strategically choose categories and keywords, and we write a professional, sales-focused book description, both of which support your visibility and sales.

For deeper marketing strategy, we recommend Children’s Book Mastery Bootcamps or Coaching.

Because this is a done-for-you service that begins once we start working on your book, it is non-refundable once work has commenced.
