Mission

"We know that the implementation of the Common Core State Standards is changing how parents, teachers, librarians, and students choose their reading materials. We also know that any major change like this is difficult. That is why we will continue to publish the highest-quality nonfiction that parents, educators, and children have come to know and trust. We will continue to publish across all learning areas, at all reading levels, and on dozens of topics, ensuring that students have interesting, accurate, and beautiful informational texts to help them reach their goals."
