Educational Board Book for Toddlers

Job ID: 40582562

Budget: $250 – $750 USD

I’m putting together a charming, educational story aimed at children aged 0-3. The text needs to be simple, rhythmic, and full of repetition that helps little listeners connect sounds with meaning while keeping their incredibly short attention spans engaged.

The narrative should naturally invite bright, high-contrast cartoon illustrations—think bold shapes and friendly characters that pop off the page—so please write with visually memorable moments in mind (e.g., opportunities for counting, color naming, or simple cause-and-effect actions).

Deliverables I’ll need from you:
• A brief concept or outline for approval
• The full manuscript (roughly board-book length; concise but captivating)
• Short art notes suggesting how each spread might be illustrated in the playful cartoon style

Once the manuscript is finalized, I may extend the collaboration into illustration direction, but for now this listing is strictly for writing. If this sparks your creativity, I’d love to see a sample of similar toddler-focused work you’ve done.
