Scholastic welcomes manuscripts for either its Educational Publishing or
its Children’s Books divisions. Please click on the links below for more information.





• Submitting manuscripts for Scholastic Children’s Books
• Submitting manuscripts for Scholastic Educational Resources
• Your work should be printed on one side of A4 paper, so that it can be
  read clearly and without difficulty. The editor who reads your manuscript
  will often be very busy, and so the easier your manuscript is to read, the
  more chance there is of it getting proper attention.
• When you send your manuscript to a publisher, always enclose a stamped
  addressed envelope for the safe return of your manuscript.
• Don’t worry if you don’t get a reply from the publisher for quite a long
  time. Most publishing houses receive an enormous number of unsolicited manuscripts,
  and it can take a while to work through them all. Six months is a reasonable
  length of time to expect to wait.
• Do not be depressed if your work is not accepted. Getting work published
  can be a frustrating process, and it’s often best to be prepared for disappointment.
• The manuscript should be sent in hard copy form to: The Editorial Department,
  Scholastic Children’s Books, Euston House, 24 Eversholt Street, London,
  NW1 1DB.
• Unfortunately Scholastic is unable to accept any manuscripts sent via
  e-mail.
