Im new to this. So can anyone recommend a good children's picture book literary agent, or a publishing house for the above. UK based preferably.

Thanks in advance

I’ve written a easy to read mini book on a specific health issue for young women.  It was previously published but the publisher no longer is in the industry. 
 

I have updated it and would like to republish it. Can anyone suggest a publisher I can approach please. 

Hello everyone , firstly I hope you are all keeping well and being creative. 
 

I am a screenwriter and have several scripts with known directors and producers with connections to Universal and Netflix etc. I sold seven scripts last month alone that are now making major offers of Hollywood stars. I am searching for an agent that can help me deal with contracts and get scripts to those that are unsolicited. I have done well getting contacts and scripts up till now but think it’s time to be represented. 
 

thank you all 

I have completed the first short story (c6000 words) in what will be a five part series for ages 6 - 10 . The second is almost complete and I have outlines of the remaining parts.

Should I detail the entire story arc to agents when submitting Part One?

The story stands alone but would also work with illustrations, is this something an agent will suggest or should it be mentioned in the submission?

I am new to the submission process so all advice greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance,

Tom.

Long story short - In Spring 2017 my 2yr old daughter gets cancer. My partner and I enrich her imagination throughout treatment to keep her spirits up.

Much of the silliness we concocted forms the basis for a picture book that I set to work on and, after 3 years, have now completed.

The book is designed to appeal to all kids, but to have extra meaning to kids in hospital (and their parents) giving them a little bit extra courage and hope.

If I have to self publish, I will. But I first want to try and get an agent, publisher, yadda, yadda.
