    Good luck!  I find that publishers in Canada are hard to find...unless you have a specific story.  Like, if you're on the east coast, and your story is about the east coast, then certain publishers will take a look. 

    Check out:

        Unfortunatley, I don't know too many American Publishers.  The Canadian ones I know are from experience....I've read books published by Annick Press...a lot of Children's book are done through them...Robert Munsch is published by them, and I own a lot of his books. 
        I also own the book "Buddy the Bluenose Reindeer", published by Nimbus Publishing.  It's a very good quality book....not cheap looking or feeling at all.
