We commission new work for children by an exciting selection of international contemporary artists, authors, illustrators, musicians, scientists, philosophers and poets who, through their individual vision, challenge convention and mainstream narratives. 

Child Be Strange believes in the importance of introducing children to the incendiary power of independent thought through idiosyncratic stories that celebrate dream, dissonance and otherness, helping them to grow free and unafraid.

Child Be Strange intends to resist the categories and divisions currently dominating childhood publishing, creating a single, undivided space where the imagination can cross all borders- age, culture, gender, genre- and roam free through the many exuberant landscapes of childhood... and beyond.
