Thanks so much for watching! I hope you found this video on how to create a childrens book flip book or read aloud video for your beautiful children's book helpful. Be sure to find me over on Instagram & TikTok, so we can connect there as well!
Thank you so much Evie. I have your book "How to Self-Publish a Children's Book" and watch all of your videos. They have helped me so much and I will be launching my first book early 2024. This has only been possible due to your generosity in sharing your knowledge and obvious passion and care for all of us wanting to have a go at realising a dream.
That's so, so wonderful to hear, Maggie! Congratulations on your upcoming book! I'm so grateful that my book and videos have been so helpful along your beautiful journey of writing your very own children's book!
Thank you Eevi for another short, to the point, and informative video. I am learning so much as I watch as many of your videos as I can. You are really helping me become more confident as I plan to self-publish my first children's book. Thank you!
I'm going to have to watch this video 3x because it has so much useful information. I just signed up with Heyzine and will be working on my video. It is SO helpful that you post so many resources for us children's authors. Thank you!! You're the best!!
Thank you, Eevi! I have created a read-aloud in the past just using video transitions in Canva but using Heyzine will kick it up a notch. I have to redo mine anyway since I've made some updates to the story (better rhymes!). I will create a read-aloud for my next book coming out very soon, too.
Thank you SO much Eevi! I am so excited to implement your tips to help my launch team! You are a light within self-publishing for Children's book author
I'm so happy to hear that this is what you have been looking for. As of right now, our Hayzine videos can't be downloaded (unless we have the paid version). So screenrecording our screen as we flip through it and read it aloud is sort of a work-around this limitation. However, if you DO have the paid version, you could download your Hayzine video, then upload it onto a place like Canva, and then add your audio file directly over there. But it might just be easier re-reading your book as you are screenrecording it. I so hope this helps.
Thanks so much! If you have an Amazon affiliate account, you could share your affiliate link to your book below each video in the description. To monetize videos directly, I believe your channel would need at least 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours in the past year. You would also have to make sure to upload your read aloud videos as regular content, not as content specifically for children, as I believe those could not be monetized.
Hi Eevie this was really helpful thank you! What I find on a lot of tutorials on how to do either book trailers or flip books is that no one shows their final product. Is there anywhere I can see your final product of everything you taught us here? Thanks so much!
I'm so glad you've found this helpful! And you can watch one of my older read-aloud videos right here - www.eevijones.com/read-aloud-video-example-sisterly-by-eevi-jones/ I hope you love it!
Thank you for this video. But how do I do like a 'machine reading a text aloud' instead of me reading aloud? When I search this on youtube I only find people doing reading by a person. Maybe I'm using the wrong search terms?
Hi, this is a great video. Thanks so much! I am just trying for my daughter. However, when we make our book full screen on heyzine (we are on free version), loom does not show our face anymore while reading the book... How can we fix it? Please help :) We want to show the full screen book + my daughter showing herself while reading the book...
Happy, happy Monday! I believe you should still be able to do so. When starting Loom, make sure you select "Entire Screen" among the horizontal tabs in the "choose what to share" pop-up window. I so hope this helps!
Hi can you create read aloud books on RUclips of other people’s books and include an affiliate link in the description and be paid by RUclips and amazon?
Hi there! Since this is other's people copyrighted work, you will want to make sure to reach out to each individual author and ask for permission. Good luck!
Can i do this for my childrens book that i sell on amazon as my content in youtube? Im planning to create my channel that is all about children’s book that i made. Im thinking if that is ok to amazon.
Hi Allan! How are you? Amazon's exclusivity currently only applies to the ebook version of our book if it is enrolled in their KDP Select program (m.ruclips.net/video/QAp_KTIBktU/видео.html). So as long as our book isn't enrolled in KDP Select, we should be able to offer our ebook wherever we want. And even then, it may not necessarily apply, because a video is a different medium (i.e. not an ebook).
@@EeviJones Thank you for the input. I also messaged Amazon regarding this, and they allowed me to use it as content on my upcoming RUclips channel. What are your thoughts on this concept?

@EeviJones what is the recommended microphone setup for this? I don’t think talking into a MacBook is best option.
Thank you, Eevie, for making this video! It's so clearly explained and exactly what I was looking for!
That's so wonderful to hear, Karen!!

Your comments are the sweetest, Tierra! You've made my entire week! Thank you so much!
Great video. Thanks for sharing
You're so, so welcome!
This is exactly what I was looking for, but I already have audio files of the book. Is there a way to add the audio if it's already been recorded?
I'm so happy to hear that this is what you have been looking for. As of right now, our Hayzine videos can't be downloaded (unless we have the paid version).

Thank you for this video.
But how do I do like a 'machine reading a text aloud' instead of me reading aloud? When I search this on youtube I only find people doing reading by a person. Maybe I'm using the wrong search terms?
You're very welcome, Noah! Perhaps try a search using the phrase "text to speech" - I so hope this helps.
@@EeviJones Oh! Thank you. I see what I did wrong. Nice of you to reply!
Would you want to create a read a loud for my new book? I’ll be happy to follow your advice and try for myself!
Is there a company that you can send your book into, and they will create and upload the read along video?
I'm sure there are. You can also simply hire someone over on a platform like Fiverr or Freelancer.
Loom has changed their plans and is no longer free for downloading created content. Any other platforms?
Flipbook builder. And simpleflipbooklet.

How to highlight the words we are reading while making a read along book?
Good point, I am looking the same, please inform me if u find some
