Best market book for agents!
This book is the most excellent at giving current information about children's literary agents. Top notch agents are listed here among the hard hitting NY agents. Their submission guidelines are sometimes given along with their websites, email, and tastes! What more can you ask?
It's not as good for publishing markets, but it's a must have if a writer is serious about getting an agent.
