How to Publish Online Storybooks for Children

A 2010 New York Times survey found that kids between the ages of 9 to 18 spend an average of an hour and a half per day on the computer and internet. This fact could be useful for you, if you have a great short story for kids with whom you want to share and encourage making their own storybooks. Online storybook publishing is an excellent way to bring your works to a wider audience.

Following are some of the Instructions on How to make Online Storybooks for Children:

Develop an idea for your story theme. Anything can be the motivation for a story: a dream, an exciting movement, personality, sounds or any specific place. Write down your ideas whenever they come to you. Ultimately, your story needs to have three basic elements: characters, a plot, and a setting. Writing out a map of the story, or drawing a story board, can help you combine these elements with your ideas.

Write a summary of your story. Use language which is easy to understand for children. The story must be charming and entertaining to read. Bear in mind that your projected audience has a certain vocabulary and understanding level. If children can not understand your story, you must find a way to make it easier to get to to them.
