Children's Book Publishing in the US

The Children's Book Publishing industry has contended with conflicting trends and the broader stagnation of the book publishing industry. Parents still value children's literacy despite digital alternatives, which has helped partially shield the industry from the strong external competition these digital alternatives have created. The rise of blockbuster young adult fiction and the subsequent hype from their movies has created a boom-and-bust cycle, with increases in revenue in years with major releases often followed by declines.

This industry designs, edits and markets books for children aged 17 and under, including coloring and picture books. It does include e-books, but excludes online-only publishers and authors, as well as textbook publishing.

This report covers the scope, size, disposition and growth of the industry including the key sensitivities and success factors. Also included are five year industry forecasts, growth rates and an analysis of the industry key players and their market shares.
