While preparing for the release and publicity of Goo and Spot Book 1- I realized there are very few reviewers willing to take on self-published children and YA books.
I have put together a list of ten reviewers currently accepting Indie authors of children and YA books. I hope this is of some help.
I believe an author develops a personal attachment to his own work, and that passion drives us to want to see such book a success, do not give up after your book has been published, continue putting your book in the spotlight.

Note from the Reviewer-
While I share my thoughts and feelings about the books I read, I try to limit any unsupported opinions that I may have. Some books, however, seem to require open honesty and opinion sharing. It is not my intent to negate anyone’s writing efforts, but my opinions of a book may not always be considered positive. I do, however, strive to focus on the positives in any book I read.
