What we do

Our specialism lies in devising imaginative guidebooks and trails – for families and children. We enjoy working collaboratively with designers and illustrators. We offer content research, text development, illustration and design, and project management.

Here’s some we did earlier …

  • Henry’s Blog: My life in my own words

    Henry’s Blog: My life in my own words. Obvs!

    Henry’s Blog: My life in my own words. Obvs! is one of five young people’s guides for Historic Royal Palaces. It’s the tried and tested idea of a diary - but updated for kids today. Written in blog-eeze it’s especially appealing to those who find history a turn-off.
