From bold colouring trends to charming picture books, discover how our story began.
Launched at Bologna Children’s Bookfair in 2022, Townhouse is a small independent publishing company committed to creating the best books for children and adults.
We work with authors and illustrators based all around the world to create a truly global list of books – with something for everyone! We specialise in novelty board, cloth, bath, sound and picture books, as well as gorgeous colouring and activity titles for all ages.
Our titles are innovative and high-quality, with fabulous illustrations, strong editorial, and imaginative multi-sensory features. Produced to the very highest production values and safety standards, our books are printed in audited and certified factories.
We work with some of the world’s largest publishers, and we love collaborating! Our strength lies in our independence, as we are fast, flexible and responsive.
As a small team, we can make on-the-spot decisions, create bespoke titles, and meet tight deadlines, while always maintaining the highest possible standards of excellence. If you are a publisher who might benefit from this approach, we’d love to hear from you.
We are also proud to publish a curated selection of our best-selling titles in the UK. If you’d like to stock our books, please get in touch! Retailers can order our books from Gardners with full details on the Buying from Us page.
We exhibit at Frankfurt, London and Bologna Bookfairs, and are always happy to visit. We hope you’ll enjoy browsing our latest books – happy reading!
Thanks for visiting,
Tom & Lou
