How we make books
Tested before it's printed
Checked, not guessed
Designs are modelled and built for real before they reach the page. If a figure is in the book, we know where it came from.
Written plainly
Friendly, direct British English. Every step in order, every term explained, nothing padded out to fill a page count.
Made to be used
Large-format colour pages, clear diagrams and print-and-Kindle editions, designed to sit open on a workbench or a bedside table.
Children's books
Stories for small hands are on their way
Anika Moorhen's first picture books for young readers are being made now. Bookshops, schools and libraries are welcome to get in touch ahead of launch.
