Gecko Press hand-picks, translates and publishes books by some of the best writers and illustrators in the world—books of good heart and strong character, excellent in story, illustration and design. Gecko Press also publishes two or three books each year by (mostly) New Zealand authors and illustrators.

We choose stories children and parents will want to read hundreds of times, for ages 0 to 14 (sometimes infinity). Gecko Press is based in Wellington, New Zealand, and our books are sold throughout the English-speaking world in digital and print editions.

Gecko Press prides itself on quality production—design, paper, bindings, covers—and on trying to make each book the best it can be.
