When it comes to creating and publishing Kids KDP coloring books on Amazon, AI is a game changer. If you’re not an illustrator or graphic designer you can now create amazing looking coloring book covers and interiors and do it incredibly fast. In this video I look at using MidJourney V5 to create the cover and interior images of our book and putting it all together using Canva and then uploading it all to Amazon via the KDP dashboard. What was once a process that could take many hours or days can literally be done in a fraction of the time. I go through creating a MidJourney V5 AI prompt that you can use to create your own covers and interiors in virtually any niche. Coloring books are a great book to publish if you’re aiming to make money online building a self publishing business.

    Thanks for the free training, much appreciated! \\\ side note \\\ Rather than simply typing “no shading”, try using the “––no” parameter. Use it like any other parameter (followed by a space, then value). In your case, yours would read “––no shading”. You can also use multiple values if there are multiple items on your “no” list; eg. ––no shading, dogs, cats, cars, etc \\\ hope this helps, cheers! \\\
  • After watching another video you shared educating us to KDP and publishing a notebook, I had an idea to use an AI image generator and have came across this video today and guided me in the right direction. Thank you for sharing your valuable knowledge and time to help us get started :) I am excited for the journey this year and only wish I had seen these sooner! Please know you're an inspiration!
  • I always had to start over because my PDF files were never compliant. A big thank you! If we weren't so far away, I'd give you a big hug!

    Just spend probably 3 hours over the past few evenings making a coloring book, following this guide (very slowly, often pausing and going back) - but I now have a book on amazon. I'll give another few themes a go soon too. Cheers Paul!
