Is there any market for a TOS or Kelvin Timeline Kirk and crew children's picture book? I have an idea for one.
Trek picture books for kids
- Thread starter Laura Cynthia Chambers
- Start date
I imagine it with the alternate reality characters but there's no reason it couldn't work for the original series characters as well.
I was posting it here because my comments got bogged down in the larger thread I originally mentioned it in.
Are you new to online discussions?
No.
If you've got an idea, Ms. Chambers, I suggest you pitch it to Pocket, or to some other publisher licensed to put out ST content (the "Opposites" book was put out by an outfit called Quirk Books, and it is probably no coincidence that it was written by the owner of that imprint).
I would love to write a Trek book aimed at kids. It's a "Bucket List" item. Don't think I don't seethe with jealousy whenever something like What Would Captain Kirk Do? is announced.

Not really. It would have a plot. The kind you read to your kids for a bedtime story.
I know Gallery did the Klingon Khristmas book. The art I had in mind would be watercolors with a half-funny, half-realistic style., but not quite what they did there. And not Michael Martchenko-ish, either. (he illustrates Robert Munsch books, for those of you who haven't heard of him.)
"And thus all the redshirts were brutally murdered. The End."

Nothing that morbid.
A happy ending.Maybe something with Tribbles? Except the Great Tribble Hunt thing the Klingons did in the Lost Era.Nothing that morbid.
Oh, OK. Sounds like you're talking about something like The Truth Machine or The Prisoner of Vega. Those examples are obviously older, so it would be interesting to see new illustrated children's stories come out.

As you wish:
But suddenly, Lieutenant Leslie came back to life. The End.
But probably without the info on stars.
