Children's Publishing: Frequently Asked Questions About Publishing Your Child's Work
What age category of children can publish their works?
To begin with, we are focusing on two age groups (3-6 years, 7-10years). We have an editorial team, which reviews the works and clears them for publication. The idea is to encourage children to imagine, write and publish.
Children of other age groups can also publish their works, subject to review by the editorial team for original thought, expression and quality of language.
Do you publish only eBooks?
We publish eBooks. You can choose to publish the book in print ready format that can be printed by any local printer.
Do you publish works in other Indian languages?
For the present, we publish only in English. But if you have questions about publishing in other languages, please contact us at epublishing@chillibreeze.com and we would be happy to help.
I want to publish stories written by my child? Will you proof read, edit and improve?
Yes, we can proof read and edit the stories.
We also provide manuscript review services, if you want a critical appraisal prior to publishing.

What about illustrations for the stories?
Our design team can work on illustrations for stories. It is advisable to submit samples for the kind of illustrations you want. Note- Illustrations are often expensive and time consuming so make full use of a few illustrations and drawings to convey your messages. Having the child illustrate the book might also be a cost-effective option. We could facilitate that as well.
Is it possible to create reproduction of paintings by my 4 year old in an eBook form?
Yes, we can create digital reproductions of original works of art. You can choose to create limited printed copies for private circulation or make it available for commercial sales.
Will you provide printed copies?

What about the cost of publishing?
All services are chargeable. You can pick and choose the services you want and the cost will be accordingly worked out. It is not necessary to pick all the services. You decide how you want to publish your child’s work and how much you want to spend.
Do I have to sell on your website?
The decision to sell on other websites/bookstores is entirely yours. We have an eBook store and allow free hosting of works we publish.
What about ISBN?
