About Us
It is our sincere hope that our books will have a lasting, positive, impact on children and influence the choices they make in the future.
We strive to minimise the use of non-biodegradable materials in everything we create. Biodegradable alternatives such as paper, card, wood, and other natural textiles are used to ensure our high impact on children's lives leaves a low impact on the planet's wellbeing.

Simon Couchman
Simon Couchman has worked in children's publishing for over 25 years. He has designed several novelty book formats that have sold in excess of a million units around the World. Influences from early childhood include: The Sneeches and other Stories by Dr Suess and Down Natures Byways by Norman F. Ellison.
The latter prompting a life long love of the natural world. The former instilling a sense of fairness for all, regardless of whether they do or don't have 'stars upon thars'. 'I like to design children's books that are more than just fleetingly amusing. If my book can also educate and influence children in a positive, and lasting way, then I believe it’s worth all the time invested to create it.' |
