About the author

Amanda Couvell is a stay at home mom by day, and an author illustrator by night. She began drawing as a way to relax and unwind after a long day of chasing toddlers, and after years of trial and error she found a way to put her skills to use as an illustrator. She has always had a love of books, which only grew when she had little ones to read to!

Synopsis

Wonderful Women is a children’s activity book that works it’s way through the alphabet with beautiful illustrations of women in power. Color in AOC, Hillary Clinton, and Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Then trace your way to Capitol Hill, help Kamala Harris navigate the maze to the White House, and create a healthy school lunch with Michelle Obama. Finish off by testing your counting skills in a fun game of I Spy.

Sales arguments

  • Wonderful Women is empowering, inspiring, and educational for young children.
  • It teaches basic skills such as letter recognition, scissor skills, and basic math.
  • You are supporting a mother, a woman, and an aspiring author.
  • Author has access to multiple large social media networks (>50,000 members).

250 copies • Partial manuscript.
Cranthorpe Millner operates a hybrid publishing model. This means, should an author pass our editors’ strict filtering system, we can offer different kinds of agreements depending on the author and the manuscript. With some authors, we work under a ‘traditional’ model, whereby we cover the full cost of publication and the author is offered industry-standard royalties (8-10%). To some authors, we offer what we call a partnership or contributory agreement, whereby the author is asked for a financial contribution so that we may share the risk and enter into a partnership together to publish the author’s book. In this case, the author receives around 60-75% royalties.
