Every year, Ediciones Castillo’s list is enriched with new works directed to all
groups of readers. New titles by Mexican authors, such as Toño Malpica, Javier
Malpica, María Baranda —
FILIJ
2017 Children’s Laureate—, Juan Carlos
Quezadas, Juan Palomino, Martha Riva Palacio Obón, Vivian Mansour, Mónica
Brozon, Judy Goldman, Jennifer Boni, Javier Peñalosa, Carlos Alvahuante and
Ale Barba have been included in 2017. The number of international authors of
great prestige with titles of remarkable literary and graphic quality is also
growing. Among them are Frances Hardinge —winner of Costa Award 2016—,
Mirjam Pressler —finalist for Hans Christian Andersen award 2016—, Max
Bolliger, and Constanze von Kitzing. We also publish new books by authors
who are already familiar to our readers: Kitty Crowther, Guus Kuijer, Ana
Maria Machado and Colas Gutman.
The development of reading skills is a constant and ongoing task. The search
for literary experiences requires that we, as publishers, produce works and
resources that accompany readers in their formative stages and nurture their
interests. We are convinced that discovering a good book will lead readers to
new unanswered questions and, in turn, toward new books.
