Call for Submissions

The Gibbs Smith editorial team would like to announce a call for submissions of children's activity books.

We're seeking writers with great ideas for activity books for children anywhere from 6–14 years old. Submit a detailed outline of the proposed project and a writing sample (generally the first three chapters) using the online submission page. We will invite you to send the entire manuscript if we are interested.

To get an idea of what children's activity books can include, here are a few titles we've recently published:

Cookbooks


Pink Princess Cookbook

Easy Christmas Cut-Up Cakes for Kids








Doodling

Pocketdoodles for Girls



Pocketdoodles for Boys









Fun(ny) activities

The Pocket Guide to Magic


The Pocket Guide to Mischief









Just for boys/girls

The Big Book of Girl Stuff


The Big Book of Boy Stuff









Visit the online submission page for further details and to upload your submission. We look forward to seeing your proposals.

Best wishes and good luck!


Please note: We are not accepting submissions for children's picture books or fiction of any kind. We will only contact you if we are interested.
