Dutton Children's BooksNew York, New York
Dutton Children’s Books is one of the oldest and continually operating children’s book publishers in the United States. Edward Payson Dutton opened the doors of his Boston bookshop in 1852 and shortly thereafter began to release “fresh and entertaining” books for young readers. More than 150 years later, Dutton’s tagline, “Every book a promise,” reflects the imprints’ mission to create high-quality books that will transport young readers. Approximately 75 new hardcover titles are published every year, fiction and nonfiction for babies through young adults.
Dutton’s list has grown and changed over the last 150 years, but its vision remains the same. The editors at Dutton strive to find books that will engage, entertain, and inspire young readers on their journey to adulthood. We all know from personal experience how books can shape lives. Cultivating the creative talents of authors and illustrators and publishing books with purpose and heart continue to be the mission and joy at Dutton.
