Send to friendFrances Lincoln have announced their acquisition of Barn Owl Books.
Ann Jungman, a popular author, started Barn Owl Books in 1999, carefully selecting out–of-print titles remembered as good reads by teachers, parents and grandparents alike, bringing the books back into print for a new generation of readers. She has been doing this, almost single-handed, ever since. Frances Lincoln have been Barn Owl’s distributors from the start.
In ten years Ann Jungman has published no fewer than 80 titles and the roll call of authors on the Barn Owl list includes: Bernard Ashley, Malorie Blackman, Theresa Breslin, Adele Geras, Mary Hoffman, Lynne Reid Banks, Michael Rosen, The Two Steves, Jeremy Strong and Jacqueline Wilson.
