For twenty-six years THE CHILDREN'S WRITER'S & ILLUSTRATOR'S MARKET has been helping the creative work of writers and artists see publication, and this year's edition doesn't disappoint. In fact, I think it's the best volume yet. Not only do the comprehensive indexes contain the most up-to-date names of agents, art reps, and publishers of books and magazines, clubs and conferences, and subject indexes, but the articles by children's authors are also stimulating and inspiring. Given the exploding trend toward self-publishing, I know the article "Self-Publishing Basics" will be of particular interest to many aspiring writers, as will editor Chuck Sambuchino's article, "Create the Writer Platform." And although we may groan at the thought of having to write that dreaded but all-important query letter, Kara Gebhart Uhl's article, as well as the sample query letters included on this subject, will ease your way through this task--and help you move forward to finding an agent. As always, you will find this year's interviews with both debut and seasoned authors an inspiration. A first-rate resource!

I had use 3 to 4 different hair vitamins over the past year and half. My edges had started to thin because of me pulling my hair back in braids and ponytails. These are protective styles for African American hair during the hair growing natural process. I saw minimal growth. My hair thicken up and grew tremendously with Biotin but my edges didn't fill in much.
