Hi Soniya,
Scanning children's books can be quite a challenge depending on how they are
printed. The most difficult are the ones with lots of pictures with text
right in the pictures. The easiest to scan, usually, are the chapter books
for older kids. When I scan kid's books I use fine engine, and it would
probably be best to try gray scale. Otherwise, scan the same page several
times using different brightness levels and see which one works best. The
few books I've scanned for very young children took lots of editing because
I had to get rid of lots of junk characters caused by pictures.
