FAQ

What do you publish?

We publish picture books, board books, flashcards and posters for children aged 0 to 8 years with a focus on Bengali language and stories.

Our books can be categorized in the following way:

Board books (for ages 0 to 24 months) – simple introductory concepts, vivid illustrations, minimal text.

Early Picture books (for ages 2 to 5 years) – Simple stories with no complicated twists. Fun to read out loud. Illustrations are equally (if not more) important in the storytelling process.

Picture books (for ages 4 to 8 years) - Good stories with credible characters, an engaging plot and strong writing. Thoughtful illustrations that work together with the text to tell the story.

Our illustrated flashcards are intended for various age groups (1+, 2+, 3+ etc.) and are used for learning purposes. 

We also sell fun posters with bilingual Bengali-English words for children's bedrooms. Some posters,  such as the Bengali alphabet poster, are for learning purposes.
