INSPIRING, UPLIFTING AND ENTERTAINING BOOKS FOR CHILDREN
New Frontier was established in Australia in 2002 to inspire, entertain and uplift children. We specialise in children’s picture books and junior fiction, and are dedicated to publishing books children will want to read again and again.
Our picture books range from Is It The Way You Giggle, celebrating inclusivity, to historical adventures for the budding archaeologist much like Edward in Edward and the Great Discovery.
Renowned for our quality, we launched our list in the UK in 2017. We will be introducing authors and illustrators, both British and Australian, and are committed to fostering new talent.
Launching this year in the UK will be one of our most popular fiction series, Little Rockets. This series has been redesigned specially for the UK market.
Please do take a look through our catalogue and don’t hesitate to contact us if you would like any further information.
