Wernick & Pratt is a full-service literary agency focused exclusively on the children’s book industry. Founded in 2011 by industry veterans Marcia Wernick and Linda Pratt, the agency represents established and emerging authors and illustrators whose work ranges from fiction to nonfiction, from very young picture books and novelty books, through early readers, middle grade, and young adult.

Our philosophy is to represent people and not just the books they create, so our approach to representation is to create strategies for our clients’ long-term careers.
