The Makers:

Lantana is an award-winning children's book publisher and a social enterprise with a mission to publish inclusive books celebrating every kind of child and family. Lantana sprung from the seed of an idea back in 2014. The seed was a question - Where are all the books about children of color? The question grew into a mission - Books should reflect the lives of ALL children, not just a few. And the mission grew into a publishing house, where children of all races, ethnicities, genders, abilities, and orientations get to love, cherish and identify with the books they read. Today the all-female team is busy seeking out the most exciting new and under-represented voices in children's publishing from around the world. They donate one book for every book customers buy their online shop to literacy charities doing outstanding work in the UK, US, and across the globe to inspire a love of reading in young children. The books are printed on Forest Stewardship Council certified paper with non-petroleum-based inks to minimize our carbon footprint.
