A Buen Paso At A Buen Paso we care about the text, we care about the story it tells and how it tells it, we care about the literature, and the uselessness that seems to characterize many good things. We also care (how couldn’t we?) about the illustrations, which have to be electric, brave, and surprising. But above all, we want text and images to walk hand in hand, and to act like one being. We hope that A Buen Paso will lead the reader to a better world, full of wonderful pages, unbelievable creatures, and open-minded readers. We’re still small, and publish 5 to 6 titles a year for 4 to 10 year olds.  |

SmartsCo When Julie Tucker and Jennifer Elias met over a glass of wine, the idea for their first project came in a burst of Cabernet-induced creativity—WineSmarts—and SmartsCo was born. Since 2002, the company has created engaging products based on life’s greatest pleasures—wine, food, chocolate, sex, beer, babies, dogs and more. SmartsCo was acquired in 2009 by NMR/Aquarius, an American distributor that plans on developing SmartsCo’s products on a greater scale. |

Tara Publishing Tara Publishing, whose core group is a collective of writers, artists and designers, represents some of the most creative and exciting developments in contemporary Indian publishing. At times handmade, on rice paper and using silk-screening, their insistence on literary and visual excellence—along with continuing explorations of form and content—has resulted in a select program that is radical, sophisticated, witty, and politically rigorous. Although very young, their titles have already sold in Europe and North America. They publish children and gift books, and fiction. |
