Children's Books

Our curated children’s books connect parents and kids with stories that reveal cultural diversity,  motivate world travel, and learning new languages. Others were written and illustrated by authors and artists who created stories to help with the emotional ups and downs of childhood.

Most of our translated books are making their English language debut. For these we are honored to work with Elsewhere Editions - an imprint of Archipelago Books, Yonder - Restless Books imprint for kids' books, and Akashic Books among other publishers.

Take a little time here and you will begin to see that not every book for children is just for kids.
