Marble Press

About

Marble Press arose from a collaboration between children’s book industry professionals, parents, and successful entrepreneurs.
Marble Press is our parent company, and it has three subsidiaries: Marble Books, which focuses on picture books, Bulooga Books, which publishes books for our youngest readers, and Taltos Books, which publishes middle-grade and young-adult materials.
In today’s complex world, quality books, and the words and images they contain, are more valuable than ever. Our mission is to bring you books that will inspire your child, books that will challenge their imagination and ignite their curiosity.
We wake up every morning with a mission. We want to publish books that make a difference, books that stand out because of their style and substance. We want books that are honest and diverse, books that offer new perspectives and outside-the-box experiences. Our books will provide a wide range of learning and experiences for our readers.

Before Submitting

We cannot guarantee that the information on this page is correct. It is not unusual for publications to evolve or close without notice. We do our best to keep up, but it isn't always possible. Duotrope listings do not imply endorsement or recommendation of the project being listed. Before submitting, you should use your own judgment to determine whether the project meets your standards.

  • Always read the full guidelines provided by the publisher.
  • Try to read at least one previous publication to get a better idea of what the editor would like to see.
  • Unless the publisher's guidelines state otherwise, always use industry standard manuscript formatting.
  • For book publishers, it is standard to submit a cover letter, synopsis, and sample instead of the full manuscript. Do this unless otherwise instructed.
  • Be professional, patient, and persistent.
