We will consider children's books that are suitable for readers aged newborn to YA.
We accept published, self-published books and unagented writers, eBooks, audiobooks, comic books, poetry books and short stories. We do not have a word count restriction or a publication date requirement, which means it does not matter when your book was published. We are an international competition, but your work must be sent in English.

We accept applications year round and will usually share an outcome within 2 weeks of receiving your book, some longer stories may extend this timeframe, applicants will be updated if this is the case. You will be given full instructions on how to provide your book for evaluation upon completion of your online application.
