The 2018 portfolio has something for all 14 million adults that buy children’s books annually. It is broad, inclusive, commercial and carefully curated to ensure all gift buyers, books buyers and readers are catered for. Fiction The YA market has witnessed growth in a challenging climate (+0.1% to £22 million value YTD*), and to capitalise on this, Egmont is proud to introduce some fantastic new titles that tap into the most popular YA trends. We are thrilled to be releasing The Exact Opposite of Okay (page 33), a hilarious yet thought-provoking comedy from Laura Steven about female empowerment, which has already garnered rave early reviews. We also have Restore Me, from best-selling U.S. author Tahereh Mafi (page 47), along with her backlist series Shatter Me, being published in the U.K. for the first time. The series has been described as ’X-Men meets The Handmaid’s Tale‘ (who would dare miss it?). The Jane Doe Chronicles (page 45) is a phenomenal new action-adventure (think Northern Lights meets Stranger Things), a truly memorable launch for upper middle-grade readers. In the Mouth of The Wolf from Michael Morpurgo is a jewel in the fiction crown, and following a stellar debut launch, the second instalment of Amelia Fang and the Unicorn Lords is bang on trend, featuring vampires and unicorns! (page 38). Brands and Licensing Egmont re-defined gaming publishing with the official Minecraft Handbooks and in 2018 we will launch the phenomenon that is Roblox (page 3). This monster size gaming brand has over 56 Million monthly players and 336 million game sign-ups since inception. We will also continue to feed the insatiable appetite of Minecraft fans, with new guides throughout the year and the excitement of Star Wars will continue into 2018 beyond Star Wars: The Last Jedi (page 6). At the younger end, there are more exciting new titles planned for our evergreen classics, Mr. Men and Little Miss, Winnie-the-Pooh and Thomas The Tank Engine (pages 11-28). And for adults, there will be more witty gifts from our new range of Mr. Men and Little Miss for Grown Ups, plus an exciting Winnie-the-Pooh parodies debut. Watch this space! Picture Book & Gift Egmont’s Picture Book & Gift line-up has gone from strength to strength, in line with market growth (+ 1.1%, to £42.4 million value YTD*). We are delighted to be publishing Molly’s Magic Wardrobe (page 67), a follow up to the hugely successful George’s Amazing Adventures series, from the fantastically talented Adam & Charlotte Guillain.
*Source: Nielsen BookScan TCM to 28th October 2017
Gifting is critical to the children’s market and we have a strong offering of seasonal titles throughout the year, including: The First Egg Hunt (page 63), Sir Boris the Brave and the Tall-Tale Princess (page 68), which includes a free sword & shield dressing-up and we end the year on Grandpa Christmas (page 65), from the dream combination of Michael Morpurgo and Jim Field – the perfect seasonal gift offering. Children’s non-fiction is in growth (+6.5% to £30 million value YTD*) and Egmont continues to invest in high quality and innovative titles like Lifesize by Sophie Henn (page 79), a must-have read for any parent with preschoolers, which takes a closer look at the size of animals. Plus Atlas of Football is perfectly timed for the sports event of the year - The World Cup. Finally, from Julia Donaldson we have the first Spinderella book and plush set and a Night Monkey, Day Monkey book and magnet set (pages 74 & 77), the perfect gift for any young child. We wish you all a very successful trading year with our titles. If you require any further information, please do not hesitate to contact your Sales Account Manager or drop me a line at igilmore@euk.egmont.com Warm regards

It all started with a tickle. Roger Hargreaves’ son Adam asked him what a tickle looked like. In response, Roger drew a small orange man with extraordinarily long arms that could reach anywhere and tickle anyone. Mr Tickle, the first of the Mr Men, was born. Mr Tickle was soon joined by Mr Greedy, Mr Happy, Mr Nosey, Mr Sneeze and Mr Bump. The books were an instant hit and Roger went on to create many more Mr Men and Little Miss characters.
Learn to solve the Cube in easy, foolproof steps, with clear diagrams and instructions.

AN ACTION-ADVENTURE DEBUT WITH REAL HUMOUR, FOR READERS 11+. Jane Doe and her father arrived on the steps of the Manor – the place at the very heart of the island of Bluehaven and the entrance to a dangerous labyrinth connecting it to Otherworlds – fifteen years ago. That was the same night the earthquakes started; the night the Manor closed its doors indefinitely. Perhaps it’s not surprising, then, that the people of Bluehaven fear and despise Jane and her silent, troubled father, John.
Mouse and her friends face the final battle to defeat Stag’s evil forces and save Trianukka in the epic, thrilling conclusion to Sarah Driver’s middle grade fantasy trilogy. • An epic coming-of-age middle-grade trilogy, set in a world of tribes, beast and magic, perfect for fans of Philip Pullman, Abi Elphinstone and Katherine Rundell
When the strongest quake yet strikes and John disappears into the Manor, Jane is set on a journey through the inbetween place inside its doors to find her father and save her world – and perhaps all worlds. And along the way to uncover the greatest mystery of all: who she really is.
• Memorable characters, a rich world and a thrilling adventure full of heart • Stunning, must-have package: foiled cover, high-quality paper and beautiful interior decorations
• Inspiring and relatable female lead, and cast of characters • Organically diverse characters and storyline • Hugely likeable debut author with a memorable voice
