What is a children's book and how do I get one printed in Kenya?
A children’s book is a printed book of stories, pictures and activities made for children to read and enjoy. Print Lion prints these for parents, teachers, schools, nurseries, churches and children’s programmes, and for event planners who want them as party or wedding favours. The minimum order is just one book, and the price depends on the size and quantity you need, so send us those details for a quote. Orders are ready in 1 to 2 days once your artwork is correct and approved. We deliver to all counties in Kenya, and you can also collect from our Nairobi office.
Puzzles and illustrations made here
We create the puzzles, illustrations and layouts in-house, not just the cover. That means you get a complete book designed properly, whether you bring your own story or ask us to build the interior from scratch.
Ready in 1 to 2 days
Once your artwork is correct and approved, your books are ready in one to two days. That keeps you on track for a school programme, a nursery activity or an event date.
Start with just one book
The minimum order is a single book, so you can print one for a child, a small batch for a nursery, or a large run for a school or church programme.
Bring your own story or leave it to us
Supply your own story and pictures, provide your own interior pages, or have us create the whole interior for you. You decide how much of the work you want to hand over.
What customers say about Print Lion
Getting your artwork ready
If you are supplying your own artwork, send PDF, high-resolution TIFF, JPEG, PSD, or AI and other vector files. We do not accept Word, PowerPoint, Excel or Publisher files, and we cannot work from Canva or Google Docs links. Keep resolution at 150 DPI or higher at final print size. Both CMYK and RGB are fine, though printed colour can look a little different from your screen, so ask for a sample if exact colour matters. Allow a 2mm bleed beyond the trim edge, and keep text and graphics at least 10mm inside the trim edge. Send your files by email, WhatsApp or a shareable link. We send a proof, and printing starts only after you approve it.
