IDW To Children: Come Spend 30 Days Of Rainbows With Us
IDW Publishing (publisher of 30 Days and other mature titles) has just sent out a press release announcing the launch of their new children's division called Jonas Publishing.
In their press release they write:
[IDW] has finalized a first-look arrangement with UK children's publisher Meadowside Books (www.meadowsidebooks.com), known for its unique character-driven picture books for young readers. Worthwhile will be the exclusive U.S. publisher of selected Meadowside titles and will retain domestic film and television rights on those properties. The first Meadowside Books title in the deal, Michael Recycle, by Ellie Bethel, follows the escapades of a "green-caped" environmental hero and will be released in March by Worthwhile Books. Worthwhile expects to issue approximately 10 Meadowside titles over the course of the first year, including William's Dinosaurs, by Alan Baker, which tells the tale of a little boy who finds more than trees in the dark woods near his home.
It could be very interesting, and it certainly expands its current portfolio of mature gore and licensed products. Imagine the possible crossovers though...those would be epic.
