Barefoot Books was founded by two mothers in London in 1992 and is an award-winning, independent, women-owned children’s publisher. Their mission is to open the hearts and minds of children around the world. From the very beginning, their books have represented a vast array of cultures and perspectives, while also providing children of all backgrounds a mirror of their own experiences.

Sustainability and reducing carbon footprint are key values and the forestry and paper manufacture undertaken on behalf of Barefoot Books is ethical and legal.

For more than 30 years, Barefoot Books have created visually captivating books that celebrate diversity, spark curiosity and capture children’s imaginations.
