Is it worth publishing a children s book?


I love to write, but I have trouble writing larger stories. I have tried for years but I always either change my mind on the idea, can t put a whole idea together, or just get stuck and can t overcome it. Anyway, I have a daughter now and she is 7 months old. Since she was born I started writing short children s books instead, suitable for very young children so I could read to her. I m talking about books similar to the hungry caterpillar and the mr men s books in terms of length and target age.
I recently finished one that I really love, so was considering getting it illustrated and printed into an actual book to sell. I don t really care about the money, I only care about people reading and enjoying something I wrote.
However, it costs money to print so I at least want to eventually make back that money over time.
Is it worth it? Do people actually still buy kids books as it seems everything is done on the iPad today.
I m just looking for some opinions, thanks!
Added (1). Pedo alert lmao, what on earth.
I wasn't aware that writing a kids book made me a pedo thanks for that!
