A Voice for the Voiceless.

Our mission is to publish beautifully illustrated children’s picture books about the vital issues that animals–domestic, wild, and farmed– face, and to present those issues in such a way that children gain insights into and develop empathy for all animal life. All our books are intended to illuminate the struggles that animals face in modern society and to strengthen the human-animal bond.

Our picture books are designed to work as read-alouds for preschool children as well as maintaining high interest for readers up to the fifth grade. However, because of the nearly universal interest in animals by children of all ages, we’ve also found that our books have excellent applicability to ESL and struggling readers in higher grade levels, as well as suitable themes for students of all ages. In fact, our books have been used in high school and college curricula.

Each book is thoughtfully written to engage young readers in age-appropriate, accessible ways—never preachy, always compassionate. To support deeper learning, we include back matter with helpful information for parents and educators, and many titles are accompanied by free downloadable teaching guides.
