Children's — read together

A light hero, three spreads and a single-image block, then the specs. Written for the adult buying it and the child reading it.

5 of KDP's 5 allowed modules · 5 images from your book · Publisher and up

Every image below is a render of the layout itself, through the same pipeline that produces the submission files. Each image slot carries a label — "Front cover", "Page 3" — naming what your own book supplies there once you link it. Nothing on this page is a screenshot of a live listing.

1. Standard Image & Light Text Overlay

The Standard Image & Light Text Overlay module in the Children's — read together layout, 1 image slots with labelled placeholders
The 970×600 sheet. Amazon renders it wider on desktop and stacks it on a phone.

Same shape as the dark overlay, for a dark image. Choosing the wrong one is a formatting rejection rather than a taste question: light text on a light photograph fails Amazon's own legibility read.

3. Standard Single Left Image

4. Standard Text

The Standard Text module in the Children's — read together layout, 0 image slots with labelled placeholders
The 970×600 sheet. Amazon renders it wider on desktop and stacks it on a phone.

A headline and a paragraph. Useful as a closing note; wasteful as an opener, because the shopper reaching it has already scrolled past the cover.

The Standard Technical Specifications module in the Children's — read together layout, 0 image slots with labelled placeholders
The 970×600 sheet. Amazon renders it wider on desktop and stacks it on a phone.

A specification table with no image — the same facts as the specs-detail module, for a book whose pages do not photograph well.

Using this layout

In the Book Studio A+ Content Designer this pack is one click: it adds every module, fills each plate from the book you linked, writes the starting copy from the listing, and resolves the palette above into your own brand colours. To build it by hand in A+ Content Manager instead, the tables above give you every module name, slot size and character limit — and the free template maker will export each image at the exact pixels.

The full limits table for all seventeen modules is in the character-limits guide.

Pack version 1, catalog hash a3b7a5a01a18, rendered 2026-09-06. A conforming file is not an approval — Amazon reviews A+ content by hand.
