Children's Literature Association Quarterly

The editors of the ChLA Quarterly will consider scholarly articles on all aspects of children's literature from any time period. Articles submitted for publication should be 20-30 pages in length and should conform to MLA style. We follow the bibliographical format specified in the eighth edition of the MLA Handbook, omitting the designations "Print" and "Web," but including URLs when necessary. Please send completed essays by e-mail attachment in Microsoft Word or Rich Text Format to [email protected].

For all submissions, please use 12-point Times New Roman font and double-space all text, notes, and bibliography; do not justify right margins. Please also submit electronically a cover sheet indicating the author's name and address. Identifying information should appear at no other place in the essay.

We will not consider work that is under submission elsewhere or that has been published previously. The ChLA Quarterly uses a double-anonymous evaluation system: we will not share the identity of the author with the readers, or the readers' identities with the author.
