Welcome to Marble Press

Marble Press was born from a desire to share the world’s best children’s books. We love children. We have kids of our own! And we were children once, you know. We, the adults behind Marble Press, and our kids all love books. Before launching Marble Press, we discovered our favorite children’s books through a combination of chance, luck, and skill—similar to winning a game of marbles. With Marble Press, we will take the guesswork out of choosing your child’s next book.

Our mission is to publish books that will inspire your child, challenge their imagination, and ignite their curiosity. In today’s complex world, quality books, and the words and images found in them, are more valuable than ever.

We intend to publish books that make a difference, books that stand out in regard to style and substance. We want books that are honest and diverse, books that offer new perspectives and outside-the-box experiences.  Great books can make you cry or scream with joy, they can make you ponder or dance or sing. Our books will offer a wide range of learning and experiences for our readers.

Our logo is the Taltos, a mythical horse that comes to age inspired and enlightened. Not only does the Taltos transform, but also he takes his young rider through a transformation. Great books can transform readers. We want to bring those transformative books to you.
