A high-quality imprint for young children, words & pictures was started in 2012. The imprint encapsulates three main focuses: imagination - because opening a book should also open a childs own imagination to possibilities; innovation - because children should be encouraged to create, not imitate; and inspiration - because books should make children want more: more books, more information, more of life itself. words & pictures represents a powerful and positive opportunity to open childrens minds to a world of discovery.
