Preschool property marks World Book Day in multiple languages with territory expansion.
The World of Dinosaur Roar is marking World Book Day today (Thursday March 1) by appearing in new territories and new languages.
The Nurture Rights preschool property – which has been produced in association with the Natural History Museum – is already enjoying success in the UK with the first four titles in the new publishing series: Dinosaur Roar! The Tyrannosaurus Rex, Dinosaur Boo! The Deinonychus, Dinosaur Stomp! The Triceratops and Dinosaur Munch! The Diplodocus.
The first titles – which are published by Macmillan Children’s Books in the UK – are also now available in France, where they are published by Larousse, and Norway, where they are published by Gyldendal.
Editorial Bruño will publish versions in Catalan and Castillian for the Spanish market, while Salani will bring Dinosaur Roar and friends to the Italian market and Sinisukk is producing Estonian versions.
The books are also published in Australia, New Zealand and Canada where they are published by Pan Macmillan.
The concept aims to teach preschoolers about dinosaurs, with the series introducing readers to a different character in each book, using their personality to teach children about dinosaurs in an engaging and entertaining way.
Every book in the series also includes simple dinosaur facts and a pronunciation guide.
Nick Barrington, md of Nurture Rights, said: “The World of Dinosaur Roar is an enormously appealing concept that has attracted a large audience in the UK and is now doing the same in other countries.
“With its wit, colour, fascinating facts and engrossing storylines, this is a series of books that really brings an ancient world to life for the very young – something we should all celebrate on World Book Day.”
