Books for Babies…and Toddlers, Too! is an innovative fundraising program of Southwest Human Development featuring the publication of a children’s book. They are seeking submissions of children’s book manuscripts in the inaugural First Edition Children’s Book Contest. The author of the winning manuscript will have their book professionally illustrated, published and promoted by Southwest Human Development and will receive a $1,000 advance and 8% royalty on sales. The book will be sold using a “one for one” model similar to that of Tom’s Shoes. For every book sold they will give a book to a child who otherwise might not have a book of their own.
