Cicada Books: contact et modalités de dépôt d'un manuscrit
Cicada Books is a New York Times Award winning children’s book publisher based in London. We started out making adult art and design books, but now specialise in beautiful, high-end books for kids aged 4-11. We have an eclectic list that includes activity books, picture books and non-fiction.
We love stories that make us laugh, exciting new illustration talent, nice paper stock, immaculate design, information that is engagingly presented and independent booksellers who share our passion for gorgeous books.
We publish a small number of books each year, but we are always keen to hear ideas and opinions, and we will endeavour to reply individually to book proposals.
Our team is currently busy working on several new and exciting titles, including books about mammalian reproduction, Ancient Egypt, a history of space exploration, and our first venture into the world of graphic novels!
Modalité d'envois
We accept submissions both of books and of creative talent. If you are submitting a book proposal, please send it to us as a low-res PDF with a clear synopsis of the idea followed by a selection of visuals. If you are submitting a story, a word document is fine, or if you would like to work with us as an illustrator, please send us a link to your website or Instagram.
