Children's Book Literary Agents Accepting Queries (2026)

Children's books span picture books for toddlers to chapter books for early readers — each with its own agent specialists and submission requirements. This list covers every children's book literary agent in the AubrysTech database. Picture book authors should note: most agents want the complete manuscript, not a synopsis. Check each agent's submission guidelines carefully.
