Chapter Books are perfect for poetry, short stories, brief biographies, non-fiction and have unlimited possibilities.  They have typically fewer than 80 pages and printed in 5 x 8" bindings for ease of handling. Any book with fewer than 30,000 words qualifies for the Chapter Book Package. 

Your manuscript will be professionally designed by book experts and its original cover is crafted with art from our library or a graphic, photo, design which you may provide. We use Adobe InDesign, Photoshop, Illustrator and Acrobat to ensure expert typographical control and a crisp, attractive, bookstore-quality product. We take care of the ISBN and bar code. After you have reviewed and approved the electronic proofs, your book is entered into the Ingram and Baker & Taylor distribution systems which service over 22,000 booksellers around the world, including amazon.com, Barnes & Noble, Borders, Books-a-Million and major outlets in the UK. The store orders and pays for your book; you collect the royalties.
