On September 3, Amazon announced that it will expand its Kindle Direct Publishing venture with a new program called “KDP Kids.” KDP Kids is designed to help children’s book authors work through all of the steps necessary to get their children’s chapter or picture book into the Kindle Store.
To facilitate KDP Kids, Amazon is also introducing a tool called “Kindle Kid’s Book Creator” which will allow authors to take advantage of certain Kindle features within their chapter or picture books.
