Market Survey INTERNATIONAL MARKET SURVEY compiled & edited by Christopher Cheng with assistance from International Regional Advisors. his directory, the International Market Survey, contains a list of publish- ers big and small in active SCBWI regions outside the USA. These include T publishers in Australia, Austria, Canada, Germany, Greece, India, Israel, Malaysia, New Zealand, Philippines, Singapore and South Africa. It is a valuable resource for members in these countries where the publishers are based as well as for members around the globe. This is not a comprehensive listing of all the international publishers in these regions but it does include many of those who desired to be listed and who are active participants in SCBWI conferences and meetings. Many of the publishers have existed for a long time and are part of • work samples will probably not be returned due to the large multinational publishers.

Maybe you have a manuscript or illustrations that are perfectly suited to these international publishers. That is fantastic! BUT before inquiring of a publisher, it is of critical importance that members consider whether their creative work is culturally respectful—is the text, or are the illustrations appropriate for the publisher in that country! Some other important considerations: • the large multinational publishers have different requirements in their respective international offices. • payment rates and times vary but all are PAL publishers and will pay in their local currency. It would be up to the recipient to arrange for exchange to their national currency. • all publish for the markets in their countries. Some of their titles are also co-published or the rights sold for publication elsewhere. • many of these publishers only take submissions from nationals and those who are residents of their countries, and some of the publishers have limited times for receiving manuscripts. 2 | INTERNATIONAL MARKET SURVEY storybooks, early readers, middle grade/ junior independent publisher and offer industry- Australia fiction, teen fiction, young adult, poetry standard royalties.

Key words: Curfew, Socialism, Pinochet, Donoso, social responsibility.

  • REVIEWS September/October 2013 Volume III, No
    Association of Jewish Libraries REVIEWS September/October 2013 Volume III, No. 3 In The Spotlight Levine, Karen. Hana’s Suitcase: Anniversary Album. (Holocaust Remembrance series). Toronto: Second Story Press, 2012. 174 pp. $24.99. (9781926920368). Ages 9 and up. Hana’s Suitcase received unanimous approval from the Sydney Taylor Book Award Committee in 2002. When the award was presented to Karen Levine at the AJL Conference in Toronto the following year, AJL members had the added privilege of hearing from Hana’s brother George; the event brought tears to most attendee’s eyes. Ten years (and over thirty printings) later, an expanded version of the book has been re-issued. The original text is still here. It includes Hana’s life in Moravia, her fate during the Shoah, her life in Terezin, and her death at the age of thirteen at Auschwitz. Alternating with Hana’s biography, the book tells of her rediscovery by Fumiko Ishioka, director of the Tokyo Holocaust Center and its Children’s Section. The original story ends with the arrival of George Brady, Hana’s brother, and his welcome to the Tokyo museum. Following the 2004 Afterword, the Anniversary Album contains 65 pages of additional material. It includes new statements by Karen Levine, Fumiko Ishioka and George Brady; memories by survivors who knew Hana and George as children; covers of 34 international editions; information about the documentary movie and play based on Hana’s life; and a wealth of photos, stories, and poems by children (primarily in Canada but also in the U.S.) who have been moved by the book.
