Submitting children's picture books

by Nicholas Bell
7th November 2012

Hello, I've been interested in publishing a children's book I've written and illustrated. I was wondering if anyone could tell me how best to format my draft and manuscript? Should the illustrations be a certain size or format? And then, do they accompany the manuscript or should I even lay it out as the intended product?

Any help on this would be very much appreciated. Many thanks, Nicholas

Hi Nicholas, best bet is to go through the listings in W&A yearbook for agents or publishers that specialise in picture books for children. They will likely give details of how to submit to them on their website,

Good luck
