Does anyone know of any children's book publishers good for new authors/illustrators?
I'm in the process of creating and illustrating a children's picturebook/comic and would like to begin researching some publishers that might be willing to take it on. I would preferably like to keep self-publishing as a last resort. Any ideas?

- I found this webpage pretty handy. Although a touch out of date. Probably worth getting on the case with agents too.https://weebookworms.co.uk/blogs/news/uk-children-s-book-publishers-accepting-unsolicited-submissions
- I think most publishers are open to new author/illustrators. I'm no expert, but I think it's important to do some research and only approach publishers who have catelogues where you can really see your work fitting in with what they already have. If you have a good idea of the target audience for your book that should help you narrow it down too
