Description

Usborne Publishing is a multiple award-winning, independent children's publishing company. Based in the UK, Usborne books are available worldwide.

Founded by Peter Usborne over 30 years ago, the company revolutionized children's publishing with information books that combined very high educational and editorial standards - and made finding out fun.  
Now translated into over 80 languages, the Usborne list has been widely imitated but never bettered and continues to earn glowing reviews and prestigious prizes.
With the advent of the Internet as an exciting source of information, Usborne was the first UK children's publishing company to produce Internet-linked books - books with links via the Usborne Quicklinks Website to recommended websites that complement and enhance the information in the book with movies, sounds, pronunciation guides, games and quizzes on the Internet. There are now over 200 Usborne Internet-linked books including atlases, encyclopedias, language books and dictionaries.
