Bloomsbury Education partners with children's magazine The Week Junior

Bloomsbury Education has announced a publishing collaboration with the weekly children’s magazine The Week Junior, which covers topics including news, science and sport.

Editorial director Hannah Rolls acquired world all-language rights from magazine publisher Future for The Week Junior Big Book of Knowledge. The book will publish in September 2024 with more to follow in 2025.

The synopsis says: "Bringing together incredible true stories, mind-blowing information and the world’s most astonishing facts, the first book in the ongoing collaboration, The Week Junior Big Book of Knowledge, will feature everything readers love about The Week Junior, in a fun, large-format book, complete with brilliant photos, easy explanations and colourful design throughout."

Rolls commented: “The Week Junior is a brilliant way of helping children to understand the world. They do an amazing job of explaining complicated and difficult topics in a non-patronising and easy-to-understand way and I’m delighted to be working with their expert team to bring their content to the book market.

"The Week Junior Big Book of Knowledge and the other titles we are planning are going to be must-haves as engaging and balanced sources of reliable information for children as they get to grips with the challenges of the modern world.”
