A LITTLE BRAVER · TWO-PAGE SPREAD

Illustrated fox and owl in an enchanted forest with glowing fireflies

Beyond the stream, a hundred fireflies lit up the trees. Pip had found a sky that grew between the branches.

The forest was still big. But Pip felt a little braver.

BEFORE YOU BEGIN

Your questions,
answered.

What is a double-page spread?

It is the left and right pages shown together, as your reader sees them when the book is open. This workspace lets you design with both pages in mind.

Does it create the illustrations?

The core tool is for writing and arranging your story and artwork. Bring illustrations you own or have permission to use. The demo includes sample art.

Can I use different layouts in one book?

Yes. You can choose a layout for an individual spread and explore different balances of text and imagery.

Is this also the best choice for a text-heavy children’s novel?

For a chapter book with mostly continuous text, the Fiction & Nonfiction Studio is usually a better starting point. This studio emphasizes illustrated stories and spreads.

Can I buy this on its own?

Yes. This studio is $75 one-time. Choose a two-studio bundle for $125 or all three for $175. Prices are in USD.

Is checkout available now?

Yes. Choose a studio or bundle and continue to secure checkout.

Will it publish my book for me?

No. You will still need to review your finished file and submit it to your chosen publishing service. Confirm export compatibility and your publisher’s requirements before purchasing.
