Children's Corner Critical Editions
Recovering children's books from the past for the present and the future
-
Children's Corner Critical Editions are dedicated to bringing both classic and forgotten children's books back into print for new readers, young and old alike.
-
This ground-breaking collaboration between series editors Hilary Emmett and Thomas Ruys Smith, the UEA Publishing Project and final year UEA students, began in 2019, and published its first title, a special edition of Susan Coolidge's What Katy Did, in 2021.
-
Children's Corner Critical Editions all feature an original scholarly introduction which brings the texts to life for a contemporary readership, exploring their ongoing relevance in the modern world.
-
These beautifully designed books also have accessibility at their heart: all Children's Corner Critical Editions are set in Atkinson Hyperlegible, a typeface commissioned by the Braille Institute specifically to increase legibility for people with vision loss and dyslexia.

Each Children's Corner Critical Editions book can serve as the cornerstone of a library for readers of all ages.
