Hello, Rostyslav! I understand the importance of creating a bright and high-quality children's book for Amazon KDP. I have many years of experience working with Adobe programs, which allows me to place illustrations and text while adhering to all requirements for safe zones and proper formatting. I have already created various covers that attract the attention of young readers. Let's collaborate to give your book the chance to fully express itself! I am ready to discuss the details.
