Secret Resource for Children's Book Authors

Authors who want to get their books into classrooms shouldn’t overlook Teachers-Pay-Teachers.com

Having been a preschool teacher for 9 years, I have the fortune to know some tricks teachers use to get learning resources.

A little-known resource for children’s book authors is the website Teachers-Pay-Teachers.com. This is a website where teachers and other people in the field create and post learning resources for purchase. Some items range from free individual items to bundles for a set price.

As a creator, you can set field requirements to help your items be found.

Such as:

• Age/ grade
• Subject (Math, literacy, science, and so on)
• Type of item (Printable, assessment, worksheet, and so on)
• Type of file (PDF, Epub, Word)
• Provide a preview or video of the item
• Great description

For my book, Dandelion, I created a learning kit consisting of numerous items for children to work through, with an age in mind, preschool.

I made sure they were in easy-to-download files and accompanied them with instructions.
