Children's Book Print Formatting Needed

I'm seeking a skilled freelancer to format a children's book for print. The book should be formatted to an 8.5 x 11 inches size, and I already have illustrations that need to be included in the layout. While I'm flexible with font choices, I want the overall design to be engaging and suitable for a young audience.

Key Requirements:
- Format the book to 8.5 x 11 inches for print
- Integrate existing illustrations into the layout
- Ensure the design is appealing to children
- Provide suggestions for suitable fonts if needed

Ideal Skills and Experience:
- Experience in book formatting, especially for children's books
- Proficiency in design software for print layout
- A good eye for child-friendly design and typography
- Ability to work collaboratively and incorporate feedback

I'm excited to see how you can bring this project to life with your expertise!

Note —I don’t want to edit everything above but this book is for a specific person and I am not that concerned with market appeal. I just want it to be beautiful
It’s longer than average —92 pages with a bit over half of those being illustrations

I’ve made a print ready pdf but it’s still not correct for trim etc and a few of the text pages are much longer than the others which makes it hard. And I’m lost when it comes to cover formatting
