We are looking for our next children’s books!


Perera Hussein Publishing House is seeking manuscripts for children of all ages with a view to publication. We would like the stories to have a Sri Lankan point of view, to include humour and avoid being didactic and preachy. If you have a manuscript that you think would be ideal for children we would love to have a look at it. No submissions from children will be accepted.

Submission Details:
• Submission deadline: 30 January 2012.
• Please make and keep a copy of any manuscript you submit for yourself. We will not return stories to the sender.
• No story will be accepted unless it is accompanied by a completed submission form found below.
