Not sure if this is where I ask but might as well try.
How hard is it to write a children's book and get it published?

>> No.7972839

shameful bump. Someone here must know how to get this done.

Somewhat related to the theme of children's book idea. Plus its neat-o

Very, very hard. The competition for children's books is significantly higher than any other genre.

sorry friend, I misunderstood.
I'm sure they will have more significance for your party if they are self made.

Of course it is, its something that seems really easy on the surface. Should I just start emailing samples to different companies? What would be a good way to go about it. Also I'm tapping into that hipster/social justice market so that might get more attention.

i think ready made in china decorations purchased from a large retail chain adds to the theme of alienation to be honest

It's pretty hard. I had an idea about a children's book that was supposed to turn kids into vegetarians, but publishers weren't interested at all. There was supposed to be meat in little compartments between the pages that kid readers would think were delicious treats, and in the end they were supposed to be horrified that they've been eating the cute animal main characters' family members. I tried to get my niece to read it but the meat inside was rotten a little and she complained the book smelled bad. The little shit didn't even finish it.
