Awareness
Publishing was established in 2001 specifically to publish educational
books for school children. Our focus is on subjects and life skills that
are essential for African children, but which are not being produced by
any of the international book publishers, and
which are therefore not available for the African market. Our
philosophy is that children need to read books willingly, without having
to be persuaded to do so. We believe that books need to be made in such
a way that that children will not be able to resist the temptation of
picking them up and looking at them. We are also convinced that it is more
cost-effective and economic to produce long-lasting, durable books (that
can be read by many readers in succession), than to economise and
produce less attractive books that do not last. Accordingly, all our
books are made using high quality paper, with a hard cover, in full colour, and with a Tough-Cover®
long-lasting library binding. |
