Atmospheric cozy fantasy, conversation-starting novels for all ages that foster empathy and inclusion, illustrated picture books and graphic novels with a sense of humor, and inventive nonfiction created by experts.
Science fiction, high fantasy, full-on horror (spooky vibes welcomed). Submissions that fail to center the child’s perspective or teach lessons like ‘just believe in yourself.’
