write a children's book
I must confess. I’ve always wanted to write a children’s book. As a young child, I used to write stories and even published a neighborhood newspaper with some of my friends. Writing has always been an activity I enjoyed and I recently had the opportunity to check out The Complete Idiot’s Guide to Publishing Children’s Books by Harold Underdown.

If you have ever thought of writing and publishing a children’s book and just didn’t know how to go about it, this is the go-to resource you need to make your project a reality. If you have ever looked into publishing a book then you know what a daunting task it can be if you don’t even know where to begin. Underdown offers practical tips for navigating the children’s book publishing world as well as the common mistakes to avoid when trying to find a publisher. There is also an excellent chapter on self-publishing, which is becoming increasingly popular among many writers today.

If you have ever thought of giving children’s books writing a try, then this book is an investment that will more than pay for itself in the long run.
