Welcome to Tanglewood! We are a small, independent press with a wonderful assortment of cool books for kids. We have issue books for young children, from The Kissing Hand to Is a Worry Worrying You? We have a pirate adventure series, some chick lit, a coming-of-age story for older teens, a fantasy for girls, a bilingual picture book, and plenty of silly, funny books sure to get a smile or two out of younger readers (and some older readers as well).
We are passionate about books. We are passionate about reading. We are dedicated to providing kids with books they want to read. To that end, we have a wide range of kids we enlist to help us decide which books kids would want to see on a bookshelf. We are proud of the letters we receive from teachers about the excitement one of our titles has created in their classroom and the positive teen reviews as well as reviews from the more traditional sources.
We hope you take the time to explore all the extras on this site. We have created thought-provoking study questions for our novels; a curriculum for a middle reader pirate adventure that covers reading, geography, history, and life lessons; and a science-based curriculum for grades 2-3 to accompany our fart book. We have loads of purely fun activities for the younger kids that go way beyond the traditional coloring page. Plus we have lots of biographical information and links to other interesting sites as well.
Tanglewood books are available nationwide through bookstores and online retailers. We are distributed to retail through the National Book Network, 1.800.462.6420, www.nbnbooks.com. Tanglewood Books are also available to libraries and school systems directly from the publisher and national wholesalers. Click here for ordering information.
