Finally. it was time to put the finishing touches on my book. We read the text eight or nine times and tweaked some words here and there, corrected any errors we saw. Made sure all the pages were aligned. My favorite part was getting to add the different backgrounds on my text pages. They even had a little bone I could put on my dog page! Suddenly, there it was! All right in front of me! My whole book! I squealed. I giggled. I fidgeted in my seat. Saira just watched and laughed. She knew exactly how it felt and she was letting me have my moment. We had to finally push "Submit Order."
That was it! I had written and illustrated my first children's book. I had to remind myself I was still only in high school. I was so thrilled, my tummy just kept flipping.
Now the long wait for when the book arrives in my hand!
