Customer Reviews

A Definite Must Have...

Love It... I bought the '03 edition and it's improved sooooo much over the years. It's very informative and very user-friendly. There's great tips on how to format your manuscript, cover letter, and query. You will be glad that you bought it.

Indispensable book

If you are a children's writer, or just thinking about becoming one, you must have this book. It contains helpful advice from authors and others in the field. It provides current information about publishing companies, submission requirements, and contests.

Children's Writer's & Illustrator's Market 2008 (Children's Writer's and Illustrator's Market)

This book is a must if you write for children or you are an illustrator. Not only do you have the market palces and web site address there are articles and interviews of authors and editors. There is so much infromation it's the only reading you need to do when your not writing.

Very Helpful

I am so glad I picked up this book! It has all kinds of useful information (and it doesn't cost a few hundred dollars like some other market books). I plan on using the information inside to help me find an agent and hopefully get my self-published book picked up by a real publisher. If you plan on writing for children/young adults, this is a must have tool - it has agent listings, contests, tips, definitions of industry terms (which really helped me out), and other great information all at your finger tips.

A staple of every children's writer's library

No matter how diverse, every successful children's writer has one thing in common -- a copy of the current Children's Writer's & Illustrator's Market on their bookshelf. This is an indispensible guide, featuring up to date submissions info for every major publisher and children's magazine in North America, lots of great articles and hidden gems throughout. You needn't be an experienced, published author to benefit -- Alice Pope and her staff present the information in a clear, easy-to-understnd manner that makes it accessible and useful for every writer. Highly, highly recommended. Jon Bard, Webmaster, Write4Kids.com, the Children's Writing SuperSite & Managing Editor, Children's Book Insider, the Newsletter for Children's Writers
