    Hello! I am a proofreader and would like to begin to proofread children’s books. I am interested in information on how to get started with the publishers. I am curious if the same rules apply to proofreading children’s books. Generally I use the Chicago Manual of Style for my main resource of style manuals.

    I appreciate any ideas and assistance. Bonita Elias
