Wide Eyes.

Open Minds.

 Full Hearts.

You’re creating something to endure—a story that can spark imagination, open minds, gently strengthen the heart of little learners, and maybe cause a little ruckus. But finding a publishing home that honors your voice,

< And a little laughter..

elevates your craft, and understands the strained balance between meaning and marketability can feel daunting.

You need a partner who sees what you see: that children’s stories are more than cute—they matter, deserve to be handled with care, and need to reach their intended audience.

Children's Books filled with...

GOOD NEWS. BAD NEWS.

Has Become Far More Complex.

Publishing Has Become Far Easier.

Getting Your Message Seen or Heard

Today, practically anyone can create a children's book.

The tools exist, the platforms are plentiful, the options are limitless.

And that's exactly the problem.

The challenge is no longer making a book. It’s developing lovable heroes, guiding the right stories to the right families—where imagination is nurtured, values are formed, and wonder is allowed to flourish.

 

At Wonder, by Mergent, we believe children’s stories deserve thoughtful stewardship, not just development or distribution—so the characters and stories that matter most don’t get lost in a sea of sameness and mediocrity.

THE REALITY IS...

When Faced With So Many Options,
The Last Thing You Need Are More Choices.
You Need the Right Guide.

Wonder, by Mergent, understands the growing complexity of the modern publishing landscape—not just how to create a book, but developing a roadmap for success by strategizing brand position, possible alignments, repurposing content, and connecting it with the right audience through the right medium.

Your stories are far too valuable to be getting lost in the noise.

Let's find the clearest path to your intended audience—together.

  • A publishing partner that protects imagination and meaning
    Children’s stories help form hearts, not just entertain minds. We believe wonder should be preserved, courage encouraged, and curiosity guided—without sacrificing creativity or joy.

  • A story that continues to be told beyond the launch
    Because when a children’s book is stewarded well, it doesn’t just sell—it stays. On shelves. In bedtime routines. In memory.

Share It With the World

A story shaped with care deserves to be discovered. We help place your book into the right hands and environments—from homes, classrooms, to hearts—so it doesn’t simply release, but lives on beyond launch.

YOU KNOW THIS...

Your Story Carries An Energy.
Don't Let The Flame Die Out Due To 
Ever-Changing Marketing Methods.

Without engaging Wonder by Mergent as your  guide, your story could wind up:

  • ❌  Lost in the Algorithm: Pouring your precious time and energy into a book only to have it never gain traction with your intended audience.

  • ❌  Marketing Burnout: Launching a dozen different channels (social media, newsletters, etc.) with no clear strategy, leading to exhaustion and minimal sales.

  • ❌  Missing the Moment: Getting your story out there is vital, but if it's not planted and positioned correctly, the readers who need it most will never know it exists.
