Issue is, have you done anything impactful since/written more? And the fact writing a successful children’s book isn’t one of the qualifications colleges use. Is this book part of a pattern of interests you devvoted solid time to? Does it tie to your major, was it followed up with a lot of hands-on work with kids, working with a local advocacy group, etc? Just donating the money isn’t going to show colleges your match.

And this was self published, then you got a distributor?
