| Description: | "Bringing the best of the world of words to kids." We are a publisher of books for children. We kid-test our manuscripts before they become books. |
| Brief History: | The company began in 2003, and has released four books so far: 1. "Jeremy the Puny": a fantasy chapter book for 8 to 12 year olds. 2. "The Dragoness Mess": a rhyming picture book for 2 to 6 year olds. 3. "Crazy Jane": a horse story picture book for ages 5 to 9. The first in a series of what we call Green Mountain Heritage Tales, true stories of Vermont childhoods. Could be 200 years ago, or just yesterday. 4. Civil War Memoir written over 100 years ago by a Bethel-born boy whol joined the Union Army as a sharpshooter at age 16. It is entitled "Notes of Army and Prison Life," and is for ages junior high to adult. |
