All Answers To QuestionsAnswer 1
Is it as good as Rowling's? Answer 2
You need to write the opening chapter at least, then send that to publishers who publish children's books. You can find them in the Writers Journey or some such mag.
Publishers usually never read the whole book, they simply read the first chapter, so that chapter must have a good opening, one that makes the reader want to read more.
If a publisher makes you an offer and the whole book is not written, they will give you a deadline.
Good luck Answer 3

First of all complete the book and make it as good as you can by doing severel redrawings of it. Then its time to worry about starting to send it to agents/bookpublishers. Johan Answer 5
Johan is right. No one will look at your book until it is written in its final form. Answer 6
Get Writers Market and follow the submission policies to the letter to a publisher that is interested in new authors. Answer 7
Suggest the old-fashioned way: get the "Writer's Market" book and/or a "Book of Editors, Publishers and Agents" and have a look at how to get the job done.
It's difficult these days because so many magazines won't take unsolicited material anymore... or publishers. So if you've had anything printed at all, in any free paper or anything, gather it neatly and ask various agents if they'd be interested... along with a synopsis of you children's book.
Or self-publish if you don't care about big audiences or anything; or go for the contests, like in Poets and Writers magazine, in the back. Some of them are for long pieces, or you could compact a chapter or two, send in the entry fee and go for it!
Whatever you do, don't stop writing! << GO BACK to questions
