Baby Walker launches

21 Apr 2010

Walker Books is launching new books for babies and toddlers in Spring 2011 under the brand Baby Walker. Twenty titles aimed at children up to two years old will be published in three blocks throughout the year.

Each book will feature a novelty element and high-quality artwork and will be designed to the natural stages of a baby's development. It will be based on concepts such as shapes and colours as well as the simplest of stories and include subjects that appeal to both boys and girls. Baby Walker will showcase a range of new and established authors and illustrators, including Petr Horacek.

Publisher Denise Johnstone-Burt says:

“I am thrilled to be developing Baby Walker. In working with contemporary artists and designers we are making a new range that will lay the foundations for a lifelong love of books.”

Liz Attenborough, Manager of our Talk To Your Baby project is acting as a consultant to Walker on the new books.
