Hardie Grant Children's Publishing

Like the kids who read our books, Hardie Grant Egmont is young and small with boundless drive and energy. We are one of Australia's best independent children’s publishers and we pride ourselves on publishing first and foremost for kids. We excel at making books that capture imaginations and encourage reluctant readers. We are a small company and we use our size to our advantage. We handpick the people we work with and the projects we work on and dedicate all of our efforts and resources into making them a success. We’re also a young company in both established years and average age of staff. Our youthful energy permeates everything we do. We pride ourselves on knowing kids. Our editors bicker about the ‘facts’ in our fiction, like how many marshmallows a six-year-old can fit in their mouth, and whether an anti-gravity machine would still work in outer-space. Our sales and marketing department know what makes kids tick. It always involves playing with the latest toys, watching school holiday movie releases and checking out the newest games online. It’s a serious business! As well as this, we market, sell and distribute the iconic Egmont UK list which features best-loved authors such as Enid Blyton as well as well-known brands like Thomas & Friends.
