Meet the Vendor: IABE

Usborne Books and More

Mission
"The future of our world depends on the education of our children. EDC delivers educational excellence one book at a time. We provide economic opportunity while fostering strong family values. We touch the lives of children for a lifetime."

Why are Usborne Books so incredible? Because of the founder's philosophy:
"Children are clever - they are our equals. We shouldn't talk down to them, but look across at them.
 Books should be friendly, and as much like magnets as possible.
 They should be reliable and accurate, stylish and artistic.
Books should help get you off your couch so you're not just sitting there watching TV and chewing gum.
They should promote wondering.
They should be better than good."
- Founder, Peter Usborne

The Kane/Miller Philosophy
For more than 25 years, Kane/Miller has been publishing award-winning children's books from around the world. We're proud that our books bring the world closer to children but at the same time, open their minds to the differences that are part of that world.
Our aim is to publish books that make kids say "Wow, that's just like me." and also "Wow, that's different." And for them to know that maybe someone in another part of the world is saying "Wow" about the exact same book.
