Marketing Children's Books - podcast

A holistic use of text, images and themes around topics like bullying, acceptance, tolerance and self-esteem helped author and illustrator Kathryn Otoshi redefine how she marketed children's books. Integrating such themes allowed her to expand from a target market of age 3-7 up to 9th grade. Otoshi adapts readings according to her audience, delving into her filmmaking background and decision-making around text, image and meaning for high schoolers. Communities have since rallied around the books, given the inspirational nature and effect on kids.

  • This is very inspiring and a direction in which I am trying desperately to go with my message in my books to come. But even though, I have insight on what I want to write about, the characters, and the messages I want to convey...I just can't seem to get them organized and into words. I am still on my first book, of which I started over 5 years ago. Any suggestions to help get me rolling faster and more progressive?
