Barefoot Books

Fifteen years ago we started Barefoot Books as mothers of four small chidren, with a little home-based business and a vision to be a very different kind of children's publisher. Today a lot has changed - three more kids, offices in Bath, England and Cambridge, Massachusetts, over thirty employees and more than three hundred books in print! Through it all, we have remained true to the ideals and vision that first brought two tiny footprints to the spines of some very special books.

Disney Book Club

As a caring parent you will already be feeding your toddler nutritious food, but did you know that feeding their mind is just as vital to their development?

Reading aloud to your child will push their mind to question beyond the printed page and lay the foundation for a love of learning. "Brain development in the areas that affect language and reading is especially rapid during the first two years of life" notes Kyle Snow, Ph.D., of the National Institute of Child Health and Human Development in Maryland, USA.

It's therefore the perfect time to introduce your toddler to the joys of reading - sign up to Disney's Wonderful World of Reading and receive 7 free gifts!
