Book Publishers 101 is a new feature here at There’s A Book! Each month we will spend an entire month highlighting one of our favorite book publishers. What this means for you…a chance to get to know a publisher you may have not known before with a “behind the scenes” look, an opportunity to “link-up” posts you might have from the featured publisher, guest posts, author interviews, a look at their newest titles and of course a chance to win some great books! We know you will enjoy getting to know these amazing publishers and hope that you’ll learn something you may have not already known!

Our First Publisher 101 Featured for the month of October:

Tiger Tales Books

From the Tiger Tales Books site:

Tiger Tales is one of a kind.

Most children’s book publishers create books for children of all ages. At tiger tales we focus on picture books. From the perfect board book for a new baby to a laugh-out-loud tale for first graders, we create books that young children and grown-ups will want to read again and again.

How do we do it? We are a small (and we mean small), independent publishing company that is owned and operated by women who know what young children want to read. With a staff of only 5 we have over 75 years experience in the children’s book industry and have raised a total of 11 children (and assorted dogs, cats, cows and chickens).

The company was founded in 2000 by publishing industry veteran Elisabeth Prial. To establish her business quickly, Elisabeth purchased exclusive rights to publish children’s books from foreign companies in North America. Within the first year of her business, tiger tales had 50 books published with placements in key book retailers and wholesalers nationwide. Tiger Tales publishes unique original children’s books as well as select books created by publishers overseas. There are approximately 160 active titles in the tiger tales list and it grows by about 25 additional books a year.

This year, October 2010 to be exact, marks the 10th year Tiger Tales Books has been printing and publishing fantastic children’s books. Congratulations! We thought this would be the perfect month to feature not only some of our favorite books, but also celebrate the addition of their new website. With the addition of a book catalog, member log-in, member reviews, a blog and much more it’s quickly becoming one of our top publisher websites. Take a look at all they have to offer and make sure to start listing your reviews of Tiger Tales Books, so that everyone can learn more about these great children’s books!
