How Do I Print My Own Children’s Book?

It’s fast, easy, and affordable to print your own custom children’s book with PrintingCenterUSA. Create your children’s book with our online booklet design tool or upload your print-ready PDF to our pricing tool. Then, depending on your printing time, you can get your children’s book as quickly as 3-4 days from proof approval.

Is it Better to Self-Publish a Children’s Book?

There are benefits to self-publishing your children’s book. When you self-publish, you can control every aspect of your book. You can choose your illustrations, paper, content, and the overall vision of your book. Not to mention that when you self-publish, and you decide to sell your children’s book, the margins from your sales will be higher.

How Many Pages Should a Children’s Book Be?

The average number of pages in a children’s book is about 32 pages. Children’s books are usually Saddle Stitched or Staple Stitched and are square. But if you print with PrintingCenterUSA, you can choose whatever binding and size you want.

What is the Average Word Count for a Children’s Book?

The average word count for a children’s book depends on the age range of the children that you are targeting for your book. Children’s books for children up to age eight average about 1,000 words. Chapter books are typically 10,000-12,000 words.
