Book on a Tree is a storytelling and creative smithery that creates and sells children’s and YA books, offers 360-degree writing and editorial services, and develops IPs and digital content.
We specialise in fire-breathing dragons, bookcases that creak open into hidden rooms, rebel princesses, magic mirrors, time machines, and just about anything that sparks the imagination of children and young adults.
Book on a Tree was founded in 2014 by Pierdomenico Baccalario, author and writer of numerous novels and children’s series (like the international bestsellers Ulysses Moore and Sherlock, Lupin & Me).
The company was built on the vision of facilitating work together, in a relaxed but culturally stimulating environment, with established and debut authors, publishers, illustrators, editors, translators, and screenwriters, without divisions of role or hierarchy, with the desire to create a small heritage of new stories and credible characters.
Over the years, this vision has become a recognised creative method, giving rise to a storytelling workshop founded on the ethics of collaboration and the values of professional friendship.
