Children’s Book Editing & Print

I have a completed children’s book manuscript that I’m ready to move from draft to bookshelf. Before I send it to the printer, I need a meticulous editor who understands the rhythm, vocabulary, and pacing that keeps young readers engaged.

Here’s what I’m after:
• A thorough line-by-line edit that polishes grammar, spelling, and flow while preserving my voice and playful tone.
• Age-appropriate word choice and sentence structure suggestions so the story lands perfectly with early readers.
• A concise style sheet summarising character names, key terms, and any recurring language choices to guide future print runs or translations.
• A final, clean file returned in both Word and print-ready PDF, clearly tracked so every change is transparent.

If you’re familiar with children’s literature guidelines, readability metrics, and preparing manuscripts for short-run or print-on-demand services (KDP, IngramSpark, etc.), that’s ideal. Illustration and formatting are already covered, so your focus can stay squarely on making the text shine.

Turnaround time is flexible within reason, but I’d love to keep momentum and head to press soon. Let me know your editing approach, relevant experience with children’s titles, and an estimated timeline to deliver the polished manuscript.
