Publish Your First Kids Book — Step by Step, From Your Phone

The exact system I used to publish 10 children's books on Amazon — no drawing skills, no computer, no publishing deal. Plain steps, real examples, worksheets included.

Have a kids book idea stuck in your head?

I'm Erik Dix. I work a regular job, and from my phone I built Berry Bright Kids and published 10 children's books on Amazon — picture books like "Luna Bunny's Starlight Garden" and "The Dinosaur Who Wouldn't Share," coloring books, and a sight-words workbook.

This course is the whole path, in order, the way I actually did it:

MODULE 0 — The Big Picture: how KDP works and the 3 rules that keep your book safe

MODULE 1 — Pick Your Idea: the 1-1-1 formula (one character, one problem, one lesson)

MODULE 2 — Write the Story: the 24–32 page shape, plus the exact AI prompt I start with

MODULE 3 — Lock Your Character: the 5-line lock that keeps your character looking the same on every page

MODULE 4 — Build the Pages: sizes, bleed, safe zones, and the checks that stop rejections

MODULE 5 — The Cover: big bubbly title + one happy face — the cover formula that sells kids books

MODULE 6 — Upload to KDP: every screen, every field — keywords, categories, the AI disclosure box, pricing

MODULE 7 — Your Author Page: set it up once, it grows forever

MODULE 8 — First Readers, Free: Pinterest pins, page-flip videos, and the 30-minute weekly rhythm

INCLUDED FREE — THE BONUS PACK:

- Book Idea worksheet

- Character Lock sheet

- Story Planner

- Keyword Planner (all 7 KDP keyword boxes)

- Upload-Day checklist + Before-You-Upload checklist

- Weekly Promo checklist

- Copy-paste Prompt Pack (story, images, cover, description)

WHO THIS IS FOR:

Beginners. Parents, grandparents, teachers, and anyone with a story for kids ages 3–6 and a phone. If you can follow a checklist, you can finish this.

WHAT THIS IS NOT:

Not a get-rich course. I won't promise sales numbers — anyone who does is selling you the course, not the truth. This gets your book published RIGHT. Then Module 8 shows you how real first readers find it, free.

Publishing on KDP costs $0. This course is the map.
