Children’s Book Design
and Formatting
Your manuscript and artwork are ready. The next stage is turning them into a finished book.
I design, layout and format illustrated children’s picture books for print and eBook publication.
Each project focuses on how text, illustration and page flow work together across every spread, ensuring the book reads as one complete, structured experience.
Most projects begin once illustrations are in progress or complete, when layout and pacing become critical.

Process
Work begins with your manuscript and artwork.
The process is straightforward.
I structure the book as a complete sequence, building layout and typography across the full document so text and illustration work together on every spread.
In some projects, I’m involved earlier during sketch or storyboard stages, helping shape layout, pacing and page turns before final artwork is completed.
From there, the book is developed into a consistent, fully designed and formatted publication, ready for print and digital release.
Experience
15+ years as a graphic designer, with nearly 200 children’s books designed and formatted in the last five years.
Work includes award-recognised titles and books published through major retail and self-publishing platforms.
Awards include First Place in the Purple Dragonfly Awards for Best Children’s Poetry Book (2025), an International Impact Award, and multiple Readers’ Favorite Book Awards (Silver and Gold).

At the end of the process, your book is fully ready for publication.
This includes fully designed and formatted interior files, prepared for print and digital platforms, along with eBook files where required.
Everything is delivered ready for upload to your chosen platform, including Amazon KDP, IngramSpark and others.
