Question:

What steps should you take to get a childrens book published??

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: First step is to check out a Writer's Market for Children's books -- get the most current. The Writer's Market contains publishers, agents and contests to which you can submit your manuscript. Also, a good book on formatting your manuscript is a must. Agents, tend to reject manuscripts that aren't properly formatted. Helpful, if you're new to the business, is a good book on publishing by an agent or publisher in your field. They will walk your through the do's and don'ts of publishing.
