I remember the librarian recommending this book for me before I published my first children book. I borrowed it, read a bit and returned it.
At that time, I had no experience with publication and very limited experience with writing. I used to write for myself only. Much of what I read in this book, at that time, did not make any sense to me.
Now, after going through two different experiences with publication, every word in this book makes sense. Today, I'm at the eighth page and is already in love with it. I added it to my wish list at Amazon.com, and I highly recommend it to who ever think of making books for children. Sunday, March 30, 2008
I had to return this book to the library and mark it as “to re-read, to buy”. I think this is a book every writer, who writes or intends to write children book, should own. Sunday, April 06, 2008
The book is mine now and I'm starting all over.

I couldn't finish it during the month of Feb.2010, so I moved it to the Unfinished shelf...Later :)
--------------------------------------------------------
after publishing my third book, I'm starting all over with this book. I hope this time I'll finish it (Saturday, August 28,2010)
--------
Finally, I finished it, but I have to admit that i skipped through some paragraphs that had repeated ideas...also close the end I started skipping the talk about the nonfiction.
I took away one star because many ideas were repeated and sometimes it did not hold my complete attention.
In general, this is an excellent book for whoever wants to publish a children's book.

I'm sure I'll need to reread it soon

Can't give a page that i'm on. This is a book for my writing class, so they have me skipping all over the place. I love what i've read so far. Very helpful and easy to understand!
