Piccadilly Press is an independent publisher, specialising in teen fiction and non–fiction, childrens fiction, picture books and parenting books by highly acclaimed authors and illustrators. We hope you enjoy reading the books as much as we enjoy publishing them.

2009 IPG Children's Publisher of the Year
Judges praised Piccadilly and its founder and Managing Director Brenda Gardner for a year of strong publishing and marketing that re-emphasised its dedication to children's books and makes it a role-model for independent companies.
"Agile, nimble and always looking for new markets, Piccadilly Press really goes the extra mile as a small publisher. Given the market conditions, the company could be forgiven for playing it safe – but it constantly pushes itself out of the comfort zone.
"

Being an independent publisher in today's climate is not easy, but Piccadilly has flourished, and this year we have some fantastic new books – books which are lively, often funny, sometimes charming and sometimes thought-provoking.We hope you enjoy reading them as much as we have enjoyed publishing them!
Brenda Gardner, MD and Publisher

Our children's and teenage fiction and non-fiction books deal with important issues in a humorous, light-hearted and accessible way. Our picture books concentrate on the very young, with simple stories and charming illustrations. Our parental list, which, with simple, direct messages and helpful advice, will hopefully guide parents towards a more serene lifestyle.

All of our books have the primary purpose of entertaining, but as well as that, there is always a subtle message to help children, teenagers and parents towards a better understanding of their world.

"Piccadilly Press is the market leader…essential to any balanced reading diet and giving teenagers something to giggle over, cringe at, sympathise with and talk to friends about."
