I got inspired by the book "Newtonian Physics for Babies" and other books by Chris Ferrie. So I wanted to gift a children book to someone in my family. The book will be a first encounter with math and physics, something like "My First Book about Mathematics and Physics".
The problem is that I can't seem to find a good template for this. I want the pages to be A5 size so that I can print 4 pages (2 pages on one side) on an A4 paper. I tried \documentclass[a5paper,13pt]{book}
, but this doesn't seem right. Maybe the scrbook
class? I would also appreciate input on which font I should use. I am also open to write a new documentclass, although I have very little experience in doing so.
Summary: I want help to find/create a template for children book/picture book.

As most babies don't need table of contents, cross references, as well as bibliography, I think using slides (such as
