Hi Roger!I guess the publishers don't think the title page, dedication and stuff like that deserves a page number. It would be nice for us proofreaders if there was a standard for page numbering.

I would start numbering pages in a book with no numbers on the very first page which is where I wish all books would begin their page numbers anyway.

If there is no contents and no numbers, I usually start after the copywrite page, but some books lend themselves better to the start of the story. I believe it is a discretionary judgement call, but someone will correct me if I am wrong.Valerie On Dec 20, 2009, at 3:01 PM, Debby Franson wrote:Hi everyone!I haven't experienced a book with no page numbers, since I have never scanned any children's books.
