The mission of Pademelon Press is to publish and distribute quality Australian early childhood teacher resource and reference books to assist teachers and carers in their task of educating and caring for children from birth to five years.
Pademelon Press was created in 1990 as an extension of The Book Garden, Australia's largest supplier of books and related materials to the early childhood community, which itself was founded in 1980. Pademelon Press, located in Sydney, Australia, is wholly owned by Carmel and Rodney Kenner, two of the founders of The Book Garden.
The Book Garden in Sydney continues to be run by Carmel, and Deborah Zavelsky, the other founder of The Book Garden, runs The Book Garden in Brisbane.
The aim of Pademelon Press is to build up a library of essential quality and developmentally appropriate resources covering all areas of early childhood education and care.
With over twenty titles already in print and several more due for publication over the next 12 months, we are well on our way to achieving this aim. As well as publishing original Australian books we actively seek out the best and most appropriate resources from around the world, especially from the United States.
As a result we are the Australian and New Zealand distributor for twelve of the best publishers of early childhood and outside school hours care resource books. We also represent the Australian publisher Peppinot Press, the publisher of Rapunzel's Supermarket and It's Not a Bird Yet and, published by Inscript Publishing, Young Gifted Children.
We also enjoy assisting early childhood organisations to bring guest speakers and workshop presenters to Australia.
If you are an academic, educator or practitioner with many years of experience and you are interested in writing an early childhood teacher resource book or textbook we would love to hear from you. Simply call us or e-mail Rodney Kenner and we will be delighted to send you a copy of our proposal guidelines.
