Who We Are?
Our Mission
Our mission is to bring the highest quality books to market that will encourage children of all ages to read and encourage all parents to do what I have done with my daughter every night since she was a baby. READ to/with her
A second part of our mission is to work with people who have a great idea for a book. We will do all the work and all you pay for is the costs including illustrator costs and printing costs. You just agree to publish the book through us.
