Where to submit your first children's book

You can submit your children's book to us directly. Start with the author questionnaire so we understand your project and your goals before we read further.

A straightforward submission path

Editor's note: Children's books

Children's books are read aloud and reread, so rhythm, word choice, and age-appropriate length get careful attention.

If you're a first-time author with a children's book, you shouldn't have to guess where to start. Our process is straightforward: you share your questionnaire, we review what you submitted, and we follow up with next steps if there's a strong fit.

  • Editorial feedback and direction tailored to new writers
  • A clear path from questionnaire submission to publication planning
  • A publishing partner built for first-time voices and thoughtful storytelling
