Red Squirrel Magazine
"Xiaoduo Media
[Website is in Chinese, but you can see cover images there and the guidelines are English]
is a boutique publishing house with a portfolio of premium quality publications for
children in China and a pioneer in the re-packaging of English and other language content for the
Chinese audience. Currently we have three monthly magazines targeting elementary school students,
one of which is literature called Red Squirrel. We have
introduced many contemporary children's literature from both US and Europe to our Chinese readers,
including the writers and their works. We are the only children's magazine in China that has done
that.
"For our magazines published next year we are looking for authors, who could supply us with short
stories. The age group of our young readers is from 8 to 12. We are looking for cool stories in
length of 500 to 2000 words (An exact word count should be noted on each manuscript submitted.
Word count includes every word, but does not include the title of the manuscript or the author's
name.) For the selected works we will pay a rate up to 0.25 USD per word."
Submissions, queries and questions should be directed to:
Editor: Conny Fang
