Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Children's Writer's and Illustrator's Market '98
Alice P. Buening · 1998
36/100
👎 Skip It
This is a professional publishing directory, not a story, and it hasn't held up — the market listings from 1998 are decades stale and useless today. On top of that, the exact author credit doesn't cleanly match the editor of record for that era, so there are real question marks here even setting aside the age of the information.
