Welcome!
I'm Cheryl Klein, Senior Editor at Arthur A. Levine Books (an imprint of Scholastic), and this is a small repository of information about writing, publishing, the books I've edited, and my editorial tastes. Please poke around and make yourself at home.
NEW! Like what you read here? Support my book.
PLEASE NOTE: This website is very much under construction, as I've just converted it to a new design and have yet to import all of my old talks and information, and most of the links above don't work right now. But my submissions guidelines are at cherylklein.com/submissions.html, and the annotated list of books I've edited is at www.cherylklein.com/id7.html. If you're coming here from the Writers' Digest article, please read those pages, note that I edit only books for children and young adults, and use that information to determine whether I am the right editor for your work. And actually, all of my old website information is still available at www.cherylklein.com/idX.html, where X can be a number of your choice from 1-38 (some of those pages very outdated); I hope to reformat the relevant ones for this new layout soon.
