Is saying you dedicate a book instead of saying you recommend the book a guideline violation? And is it strictly a must you use the exact word "recommend" when stating what audience is perfect for the book? The exact words I used are, "I dedicate this book to children of eight years and above, who like novels with a tinge of mystery."
I was marked as not adhering to the guidelines for not saying I recommend the book and thought I should ask about it. Help with this will be greatly appreciated.

"Dedicate" and "recommend" have two different meanings. You can't dedicate a book you didn't write. You dedicate a book you wrote and recommend a book you read. You should google for more info about these two words.

I moved your post to the correct forum.
