Creator:
Sugar & Snails Press Co-Operative Ltd
History : Sugar & Snails Press began life as the Women's Movement Childrens' Literature Co-operative Ltd in 1974. It was started by a group of women from the Box Hill Women's Liberation Branch who were concerned about sexism in children's literature, and began to publish and write their own books. The company was closed in 1991 as its members believed that mainstream publishers had accepted the need for non-sexist literature.
