Union Square Kids

 I am biased (waves eagerly at her editor), but I think Union Square Kids makes some of the BEST picture books. Here is the description from their website: "Union Square Kids publishes fiction and nonfiction titles that surprise young readers with unexpected stories, inventive formats, and unique perspectives. Quality and quirk are at the heart of our books—from literary award winners to broad-reaching commercial hits. Our books aim to entertain and excite kids and teens through humor, discovery, and thought-provoking reading experiences."
