Do I need an Illustrator for my children’s book?

Last updated on September 24, 2022 @ 6:14 pm

There is no definite answer when it comes to whether or not you need an Illustrator to create a children’s book. Depends on your skill set, the type of book you are creating, and the software that is available to you.

If you are comfortable using a word processing program, then you can likely create a children’s book using that program alone. However, if you are not familiar with using a word processing program, then an Illustrator may be a better option for you.

An Illustrator can help you create more realistic and detailed illustrations, as well as more complex designs. Additionally, an Illustrator can be used to create cover art and marketing materials, so it can be a versatile tool. However, it is worth noting that not all children’s books require the use of an Illustrator.

PRO TIP: No, you do not need an illustrator for your children’s book. However, if you choose to have one, make sure you select someone who is experienced in children’s book illustration and who you feel comfortable working with.

There are plenty of simple, illustrated books that can be created using just a word processing program and some images. So, it really depends on the specific project you are working on and your skills.

Ultimately, it is up to you to decide whether or not you need an Illustrator to create your children’s book. If you are comfortable using a word processing program, then you may be able to create a children’s book without an Illustrator.

However, if you are looking for a more detailed and realistic illustration, then an Illustrator may be a better choice.
