Not here, but there
Found another publisher that (I think) isn't on the AW list. They look good, but I noticed a typo on one of their book descriptions. Also if they are launching in the Spring of 2013, why do they have books out already?

Here's the link:

I can't see that they have any books out already; the books they list all have pub dates scheduled for 2013. They're just showing the blurbs and cover art, I think -- which look pretty cool! I want the duckie book ;)

They're an imprint of Raintree, which I think is a pretty big name?

Well I clicked on some of them and the "City Farm" horse book says March of 2012

Maybe another typo?
I reckon; Amazon.uk lists it as forthcoming in 2013.

Anyhow, I reckon this imprint is worth watching; Raintree has got the chops, and the books CFox has in press look quite appealing. I would expect, though, that they'll be an agented-submissions-only press.

Well as of now, they are accepting submissions on their "author" page.

Probably until they get bombarded by them and close the doors to only agented ones. With that link Victoria posted, they accept YA, so I sent mine in. I'll give you guys an update if I hear back. Definitely ones to watch. My only concern is there UK pubs and I'm here in the US, don't know if they publish internationally yet.

Just a note that Raintree was formerly Heinemann-Raintree, and is a division of Capstone.

Can anyone give me more info on the company? I sent them a manuscript a while back.

When you look on the Capstone website and all their imprints, Curious Fox is not listed.

Unless this is Capstone's UK division?
