How I Created and Published a
Children’s Book Using AI Tools (And How You Can Too)
Introduction
Six months ago I had no experience in writing, illustrating, or publishing books. Today I am a published children’s book author on Amazon with a beautiful picture book available worldwide.
Here is exactly how I did it using 100% free AI tools.

The Book
“The Three Brave Friends: A Story About Adventure & Teamwork” follows Leo the Lion, Pip the Bird, and Ella the Elephant on a magical adventure through forests, rivers, and mountains to find a hidden waterfall. Along the way they discover that true friendship and teamwork can overcome any challenge.

The Tools I Used (All Free!)
-
Google Gemini Canvas I used Gemini Canvas to write the complete story. I simply described the characters, themes, and moral lesson and Gemini wrote a beautiful engaging story in minutes.
-
Leonardo AI For the illustrations I used Leonardo AI’s free tier which gives 150 tokens per day. I generated a unique watercolor style illustration for every single page of the book.
-
Affinity Publisher I used Affinity Publisher to layout the complete book, design the cover, and prepare everything for printing according to Amazon KDP specifications.
-
Amazon KDP Finally I uploaded everything to Amazon KDP and published both a paperback version at $14.99 and a Kindle eBook at $4.99.

The Results

Total cost: $0

The Moral Lesson
Just like Leo, Pip, and Ella in my book, creating something amazing requires using your unique strengths. AI tools are not replacing creativity. They are amplifying it.
If you have a story idea, a message you want to share with children, or a business you want to build around digital products, the tools are available right now for free.
Your adventure starts today.
