About us
A story often begins as a tiny crumb of an idea, that grows, and grows until it’s big enough to fill a book. Tiny Crumb Books is a home for children's book publications.
“It was dark at night when they awoke, and Hansel comforted Gretel and said, "Wait, when the moon comes up I will be able to see the crumbs of bread that I scattered, and they will show us the way back home." When the moon appeared they got up, but they could not find any crumbs, for the many thousands of birds that fly about in the woods and in the fields had pecked them up.”

The children's book publishing industry is a fascinating and exciting field that caters to young readers who are eager to learn and explore. It focuses on creating age-appropriate books that capture children's imagination and inspire them to read more. From picture books to young adult novels, there are a variety of genres and themes to choose from. Publishing houses produce high-quality books that appeal to both children and parents. The industry is constantly evolving with new technologies and trends, making it an exciting time to be a part of it. Children's books have the power to shape young minds and encourage them to develop a love for reading.
Our mission
We're on a mission to create engaging, wondrous and inspiring books that capture a child's imagination. We aspire to help young readers to explore and make sense of the world around them. We aim to encourage curiosity, play and reflection, to develop confidence and joy in reading. Through the magic of storytelling, we aim to gently introduce young readers to complex topics whether wellbeing, empathy, kindness or environmentalism.
Our vision
We want to live in a world where every child has the opportunity to thrive. We recognise the important role that reading has to play in this and how fostering a love of books, at a young age, can lead to a lifetime of pleasure in reading.
