The first time I attempted to write a children's book, it took me three months and several years of promising myself that I would do it "one day." In that time, I managed to wash the dog, rearrange my closet, get my apartment so clean that they should have done a commercial about it and procrastinate in ways that gave the word a new name.

When I actually sat down to write the book, it took me two days. That is the longest it has ever taken me to actually write a children's book, since then. In reality, unless you are writing an epic, it will not take you more than that period of time to write yours either, after you read this book.

Why then the title How to Write a Children's Book in 30 Days or Less ?

So that you will have the time to wash the dog, clean the closets and get Mr. Clean to personally come in and interview you.

If fear or the excuse that there is never enough time has kept you from fulfilling your dream, sit back, relax and prepare to be amazed. Your first book is just thirty days away.

Great for those who started but just can't finish ....

This little volume packs as much of a punch as any of the ginormous or gigandous plodding tomes you will find on the same subject. This is the one that actually got me inspired to do what I wanted to do, sit down and write without that gnawing anxiety blocking my creative urge. If you think you've got a children's book in you and you just haven't been able to get it to come out--or you haven't been able to finish it--this book will do the trick. Once I find a publisher, look for my children's book on Amazon next. The working title: "The Most Important Nation on Earth!"

Not at all what I expected!

Obviously this author has taken seminars on "How to Write Catchy Titles That Will Get People to Buy Your Book." (In Two Hours or Less.)

I was very excited to get this book, it had many good reviews on Amazon and I was looking for what the title suggested, a 30 day plan for writing a book. What a joke.

This is a very small book that is very "short" on information and advice. It took me about 30-45 minutes to read. (There are 95 pages with huge margins and triple spaces between each small paragraph.)

It is written at about a fifth-grade level, and might have some use in that type of classroom setting. There is nothing new here for the adult who has any education whatsoever, especially any college English classes. I just kept saying "duh" as I read each page.

Her credits at that back of the book say she has written two children's books, and I guess two "How-to" books, including this one. That's some kind of expert advice.

And incidentally, the 30-day plan isn't mentioned until page 63 as part of a BONUS SECTION! It includes such useful tips as, "grab your coffee and snacks," "do the laundry," and "go to the park." Gee, why didn't I think of that?

This book is for you if you have absolutely no education, no imagination and the idea of getting a snack for yourself before you sit down to write gives you an "Ah ha" moment.
