1. Identify the work and include a brief author biography and marketability statement regarding you and your book.
2. Include a brief synopsis (1-2 pages) covering the entire plot, theme, and structure of the book. (The synopsis should also identify the genre, word and page count, and whether or not the book will be illustrated.)
If your work is intriguing and fits with Dalton Publishing’s editorial standards, we will contact you to request sample chapters.
