For the first time we have had to raise the prices of our books. From today, the costs of our full-length size books will go to £12.50 each, while our short books will go to £10 each.
When we first started selling our books in 1989, we made a commitment to keeping our costs low and our work affordable for the many people it could benefit. Since then, for over 30 years, we have kept our book prices the same despite rising costs both in printing and in our co-production process.
Our books are special. They go through many months of drafting, testing and trialing to make sure their stories and pictures are as beautiful, understandable and universal as they can be. They take 12-18 months of a rigorous, in-depth process involving experts in their subject field and with lived experience to produce.
With costs rising, it is necessary for us to introduce this pricing change to ensure we can keep producing our books and resources to the high standards that make them special.
