Childrens Book Publishing Companies
Children's books are a literary market that will always be in demand. While other types of books may go in and out of favor, there is always a need for well written, original, and entertaining children's books. There's a wide range of options, too, from the simplest picture books through story books and chapter books, all the way to novels for preteens and teenagers. If you want to write books for children, there are several ways to go about getting them published. You can submit your manuscripts to one of the conglomerate publishers, but the competition there is extremely fierce. Even if they publish your work, it might get lost among the hundreds of other books in their imprint. If they don't give you publicity, your book is likely to languish, and they can't put on a big push for each book. You can try publishing your book yourself through a vanity press. These are not true publishers; they are much more like printers. They have no quality standards, and will print books from any author willing to pay. They do absolutely nothing to help you market your book, so you often end up with cases of them in your garage. A third alternative is to submit your work to a smaller publisher, perhaps one that specializes in children's books. Bouncing Ball Books is a high-quality independent press. We are very selective in what we choose to publish, and if we choose your book, we'll make sure that it's well publicized. We even create games and activities that go with your book! Take a look at some of our existing titles to get an idea of what we're looking for, and then feel free to contact us for more information on submitting your manuscript.
