Cottage Door Press is an independent publisher of high-quality children's books. We believe that every child deserves an excellent first book experience--beginning on the day they're born.

Reading is learning is our driving philosophy, and we strive to help parents understand why reading aloud from birth is so important. We offer a simple development-based guide to help them on their journey.

Holly Berry-Byrd just loves Christmas time! And so do the writers and designers at Cottage Door Press. Holly Berry-Byrd is the name we use when we all create a Christmas book together. It (sort of) means Red Bird - like our cheery little mascot. When Holly isn't writing Christmas books, she enjoys baking gingerbread houses, knitting reindeer booties, and listening to vintage vinyl Christmas LPs.
