What We’re Searching For

First of all, we are going to be a very small publishing house, starting with just two books a year. So we are going to have to turn away a lot of good books! But if you have a picture book, a chapter book or a middle grade novel that you believe really meets the needs of today's Jewish kids, then we ask you:
  • Is your book fun and different? Funny and wacky? Intriguing and mysterious? Or perhaps it helps the reader travel to a fantastic new world?
  • Is your book fun and different? Funny and wacky? Intriguing and mysterious? Or perhaps it helps the reader travel to a fantastic new world?
  • Does your book give today's young Jewish readers what they really want to read? Does it strive for fun and enjoyment over learning and education?
  • If you have a book like that, then we would like to see it. And perhaps, just perhaps, we can bring your book into the world together.

Submission Guidelines

Intergalactic Afikoman looks forward to accepting submissions from agented and unagented authors and illustrators.

We will offer our authors and illustrators an advance and royalties, plus publicity and marketing for the beautiful books that we look forward to creating together. (We plan to keep our initial lists extremely small, so that we can give each book the critical attention it deserves.)

At the present time, we plan to respond to all submissions. Please wait three months for a reply. If you have not heard from us within three months, you may email us to inquire about the status of your manuscript.​
