Children's Books - Resources for Writers

6/23/2009

There are so many resources for writers of children's books that are easily accessed online.  This is an organization for writers of children's book that I have found very helpful:

The Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators (website SCBWI.ORG). Formed in 1971, there are currently more than 19,000 members worldwide, in over 70 regions, making it the largest children's book writing organization in the world.

The SCBWI sponsors two annual International Conferences on Writing and Illustrating for Children as well as dozens of regional conferences and events throughout the world. It also publishes a bi-monthly newsletter, offers awards and grants for works in progress, and provides many informational publications on the art and business of writing and selling written, illustrated, and electronic material for children. The SCBWI also presents the annual Golden Kite Award for the best fiction and nonfiction children's books and the Sid Fleischman Humor Award for children's books.

Membership in the SCBWI is open to anyone with an active interest in children’s books, literature or media.
