A page of text?

Hey All,

I was reading a publishers submission guidelines and it states, for non-fiction for kids they want approximately 30 pages of text.

My question is, what is the word count for that? :Shrug:

Thanks

Reece

7000-7500 words, approximately.

I think it is about 250/300 words per page. And my math isn't great, so someone else can work out what it would be for 30 pages. Alleycat's sums seem right to me, though

Unless your target reader is younger--chapter book age--in which case figure more like 200 words to a page--shorter paragraphs=more white space on the page.
