About Usborne
Usborne is Britain's leading independent publisher of children's books, founded in 1973 and beloved by generations of families for their innovative, beautifully illustrated titles including the iconic "That's not my" touchy-feely series. ## The Peter Usborne Story Usborne Publishing was founded in 1973 by Peter Usborne CBE (1937-2023), a remarkable entrepreneur who in the early 1960s had co-founded the satirical magazine Private Eye. After leaving Private Eye, studying at INSEAD and working at the British Printing Corporation, Peter moved into children's books upon discovering he was going to become a parent – and soon afterwards established his own publishing company. ## Award-Winning Excellence Usborne has earned recognition as the UK's foremost independent children's publisher, winning Children's Publisher of the Year at the British Book Awards in both 2012 and 2020. Additional accolades include Independent Publisher of the Year (2014) and Private Business of the Year (2015). Based at their London headquarters on Saffron Hill, Usborne publishes approximately 30 new titles every month. ## In-House Creativity What sets Usborne apart is their approach to book creation. Most titles are conceived, written and designed entirely in-house by their dedicated team of writers, editors and designers. This ensures consistent quality and the distinctive Usborne style that parents and children have come to love. With over 3,000 books in print, the catalogue spans baby board books through to young adult novels. ## Beloved Series Usborne's most celebrated titles include the "That's not my" series of touchy-feely board books for babies, Poppy and Sam's Farmyard Tales, the Usborne Puzzle Adventure series, Sticker Dolly Dressing, the World of the Unknown, and interactive sound books like Jungle Sounds.
