Dated: 29th of November, 2006
Now in its third edition, the Children's Writers' and Artists' Yearbook has quickly established itself as the premier book aimed at helping all prospective children's writers get their work published. To say 'premier' is a little of an understatement, because there is no other book like it.
The cover statement "Between the covers of this book is everything you need to know to get published" is somewhat of an understatement too - it does give you everything you do need to get published except talent -THAT, you need to buy elsewhere!
Like its older brother, this book is set to become a classic in its own right and will be filling the shelves of all budding children's writers - myself included.
The Children's Writers' and Artists' Yearbook covers everything, and I do mean EVERYTHING you will ever need to know: finding an agent, finding a publishers, self publishing, marketting, copyright laws, income tax and other financial obligations, illustrations and much, much more.
If you think you have it in you to write the next best-selling children's book, go out and read this book first. It is utterly necessary.
Random listing from 'Books'...
It is 1917 and the Great War is a jagged scar across the face of Europe. Soldiers cower in mud-filled trenches, hurling bullets across the war-torn landscape. Above them flies 17-year-old New Zealander, Bob Sunday of the Royal Flying Corps. Before long, Bob finds himself flying against the great German air aces, including the infamous Red Baron Manfred von Richthofen, as their warplanes whirl above the battlefields of Arras, Passchendaele and Cambrai.
This is the fourth book in the popular Kiwis at War series.
