I see from an article in The Bookseller that Phaidon is increasing its children's list significantly. Here in NZ a wonderful publisher has been doing work like this for several years now. Gecko Press deserves the description "The little publisher that could". I urge booklovers to check out the website: www.geckopress.co.nz.
