What would happen to you if you were suddenly thrown into a black hole? ☄️ Dr Matt Bothwell gave the answers to this question, and many, many more at his sold out event at The Royal Institution on Wednesday. This is after the release of his children’s book, Astrophysics for Supervillains, an evil guide to conquering outer space! 🚀🪐🦹 The venue was packed! Around 230 kids and adults joined the talk, which was followed by a book signing. Check out the book here: https://lnkd.in/eSxd4J2b #publishing #bookevent #booksigning #science #astrophysics Natasha Finn Katy Flint Flint

Here at DK, we know a thing or two about dinosaurs... a ROARsome amount at that! 🦖 🦕 🦖 The DK Delhi team went full out on a dino-tastic day for their kids last week. From 'guess the dino-tail' quizzes to making their own origami T-Rex's, the day was filled with prehistoric adventure and a newfound love for dinos. #publishing #officeevent #india #delhi #dinosaurs #knowledge

I’m happy to share that, as of yesterday, the A Kids Book About series has been acquired by DK! This is truly a dream come true, as DK is the world's leading non-fiction children’s publisher, having built an iconic brand across the last 50 years explaining big ideas to kids. Truly, I couldn't think of a better home for the A Kids Book About series. My new role will be as VP & Publisher at DK, continuing to grow the series and tell the most important stories kids ever hear! And guess what?! A Kids Co. isn't going anywhere. Not only will the A Kids Co. continue to produce new podcasts, operate the direct to consumer business, seek brand partnerships outside of books, and pursue additional multi-media opportunities, but I'll get to stay along for the ride in my new role there as Founder & Executive Chair. Thanks for all those who've supported me and the stories we've endeavored to tell along the way. A special thank you to everyone who has ever worked on one of our books, your contributions were invaluable. Here's to a future where kids get the stories they need and the grownups in their lives truly believe they're ready!

Here's my latest book cover design + illustrations for ¡Viva México! DK Eyewitness. Within its pages, you’ll discover the rich diversity of this vast country. Uncover its varied natural landscapes, which stretch from white-sand beaches to jungle-cloaked mountains; explore its vibrant cuisine and how it differs greatly from region to region; and learn about its ever-changing cycle of colourful feasts and fiestas. The book also covers Day of the Dead traditions, how staples of Mexican food have changed as they’ve travelled the globe, and how pioneering filmmakers continue to influence the world of cinema. Throughout, you’ll unearth the unshakable ties that link this diverse country together, whether it’s the importance of family, a love of chilis or simply the desire to keep chatting around the table long after dinner has finished. So, get ready to learn what makes Mexico so special – ¡Viva México! Long live Mexico! More about this book: https://lnkd.in/emdXhEpu Special thanks to Illo Agency and DK Books team for the opportunity.
