Calling all artists, writers, agents, developers, inventors, & packagers! We want to see what you’ve got! Please follow the submission guidelines below to ensure that your work gets where it needs to go.

innovativeKids® Submissions Guidelines:
Thank you for your interest in innovativeKids®! Before sending your submission, please take a moment to browse our website to determine whether we might be an appropriate publisher for your work.

We consider manuscripts (both fiction and non-fiction) as well as proposals for new book formats. If you are submitting a manuscript, please note that we do not publish traditional picture books. We look for manuscripts that will lend themselves to interactive, educational formats.

You may send either a query letter or manuscript. If you are submitting a book concept, it is best to include a book dummy or mock-up, but be aware that it will not be returned.

We also consider authors and illustrators on a work-for-hire basis. If you are interested in being considered for future projects, please submit a writing or art sample along with any relevant credentials.

When sending submissions, please note:
  • Submissions should be suitable for children from birth to 12.
  • Please make sure to keep a copy of your manuscript and do not include any original artwork, one-of-a-kind dummies, or other irreplaceable items with your submission. MATERIALS THAT YOU SUBMIT TO US WILL NOT BE RETURNED.
  • Due to the overwhelming number of submissions that we receive, please note that it may take up to 6-12 months to review your submission.
  • We are only able to respond to submissions that we are interested in pursuing. Including a self-addressed, stamped envelope (SASE) will not guarantee a response.
