Two things seem, for technical reasons, to be best:
1. All of the backgrounds should be white, so it blends with the white pages of the Create Space formatting.
2. The words need to be part of a picture, so as to combine pictures and words, the way kids like. Otherwise, I can't have it be an ebook. (Ebooks don't mix pictures and words, at this point.) Not that it really needs to be an ebook, although I thought it would be nice.
I have been looking at children's books, and the words aren't usually too fancy... nevertheless I might end up typing them out. I can't decide.
And another thing:
3. I think it would be good for me to choose a drawing style, and stick to it! I'm narrowing it down. All of the drawings will be slightly different in the actual final version.
4. May I have your opinion? Typed words or hand written? Number two is hand written. Here is typed:

Typed, I think. It will be easier for kids to read themselves.
