Self-publish your children's book without missing a step — from book plan to print-ready file! Self-publishing a children's book sounds simple — until you realize how many decisions are riding on you. Hardcover or softcover? KDP or IngramSpark? Who illustrates? Who edits? What's the right page layout? How much should you budget? And in what order does any of this happen? When I first looked at self-publishing, I couldn't find a single resource that mapped out the whole thing in plain English. So I built one. This bundle walks you through all 5 steps of self-publishing a children's book — with the worksheets, checklists, budget sheets, and pagination templates you'll actually use along the way. No fluff. No filler. Just the system I wish I'd had on day one. This isn't about pumping out a book fast. It's about building one you'll be proud to put on a shelf next to the best of them.
