How did we get here?When we started making books, we didn’t know much about the history of illustrated books, apart from the general knowledge of all readers with an interest in this subject. But gradually we are realizing our immense heritage and are amazed each time we make a new discovery: at the end of the day, somebody else had already been here, struggled with similar problems and tried to find new solutions. All those who came before us certainly felt that they had something to add to the books that already existed, and they did so, bringing new concerns and new ideas to their texts and images.

An interesting discovery is that technological change has always gone hand in hand with major developments in book production – in many cases even shaping those revolutions. This was the case with the introduction of color or with printing techniques, which allowed for a more flexible relationship between text and image. Another interesting discovery is that the current crisis is not the first of its kind: other crises have occurred, times when resources needed to be used as effectively as possible and solutions were needed that would provide publishers with good value for money.

Many say that this crisis is different from the others (history repeats itself but is never entirely the same). The publishing world also has to deal with markets and uncertainty and nobody knows what will happen. But while the future is uncertain, we will be here every day – as many have been before us – thinking and working, fully focused on what we put in our books. This is central to what we do – and also what we most relish.

What’s in there? Around us there are thousands of objects: in drawers, in cupboards, in backpacks and pockets, under beds and sofas...

In this book there are dozens of pictures to look at and many amusing challenges for all ages: for those who are still learning to talk and for all readers-detectives who like to follow the clues and put two and two together.

The boy who loved birds When we love something, we want to know it better. And when we love and know, we take care of it and all that is around it without thinking twice.

This book shows how we are all connected in this planet: people, birds, lizards, forests, rivers, rain or sun.

I’ve never seen a bicycle and the ducks won’t let goLearning things about the world is important; Understanding the world is important too. Reading, writing, counting, drawing... all that.

But the world is made for living, for looking about, making discoveries, experimenting… Preferably live, vividly, and in colour.

This is a  book that amuses and  raises questions:

What is really important?

How can we learn new things?

Why is school necessary?

The IslandOnce upon a time there was an island, neither large nor small, just the size of a normal island. One day, a boat full of mainland people arrives on the island. The islanders are so delighted that they want to be equal to their visitors.Thus begins the construction of a bridge: a bridge so large that to build it we will need all the stone from the mountains, all the wood from the forests, all the sand from the beaches... What will be left at the end?

Coming and goingOn Earth, we are not the only ones to travel long distances. Like us, many birds, fish and mammals make hundreds of miles in search of food, of a warm land or of a good place to have their offspring.

These incredible travelers amaze us with the distances they cover, but not only that. There is something else in the way they travel that can make us slow down and think...

High TideA picture book can be a disconcerting object.

One doesn’t see words, and readers, who are accustomed to the presence of a text that takes them by the hand, may feel rather lost (a bit like when we get to a beach and look for the best place to sit).

A book to be crossed barefooted and looked at unhurriedly — as we should do with the sea, be winter or summer.

Os cabelos não são um assunto fácil:Quem os tem lisos, prefere os encaracolados.Quem os tem escuros, acha os loiros mais bonitos.Quem os tem curtos, espera que cresçam depressa...

Mila, a cabeleireira deste livro, compreende tudo isto e é capaz de surpreender os clientes com as transformações mais mirabolantes.Mas há mudanças súbitas que nem todos estamos preparados para aceitar. Um dia, uma pequena tragédia aconteceu entre as paredes do salão...

O que faz uma menina de tangerina na mão? Cheira, prova, experimenta... O acontecimento é único (a menina nunca antes provou nada assim) e, por isso, todos vêm ver. Será que vai gostar?Vida fora, não esquecerá este primeiro gomo, que, diz ela, tem o sabor da primeira vez. “O Primeiro Gomo da Tangerina” é um poema (e uma música) de Sérgio Godinho.Madalena Matoso transformou o poema em imagens, neste álbum ilustrado que continua a ter um pouco de álbum musical... Não deixem de ouvir a música. Vale mesmo a pena.

The karate girl’s red notebookWe practiced kata together, we were perfectly synchronized. I stood behind Raul (hair laden with fruit, shoulders of stone), but when we turned, I was in front, with my back to him. We breathed as one and our feet crawled across the floor like crocodiles. We were the perfect movement, the perfect form, the perfect substance (and now he came closer and I began to feel his breath on my neck... -> no vampires in this story). My biggest dream is to be a black belt (and to kiss Raul).

The karate girl’s red notebook won the 2011 Branquinho da Fonseca Prize — Expresso/Gulbenkian for Juvenile and was the first to inaugurate the Two Steps and a Leap Collection.

Two Steps and a Leap is Planeta Tangerina’s new collection for more grown up readers.At a distance of two steps and a leap, readers will find many stories, themes and voices: adventure, travel, diaries, and also, love, mysteries, magic, stories with a happy ending and others that will try their best to have one...

There is no right age to be a reader of this new collection: Two Steps and a Leap takes us on a flight to a place of new adventures, a little further along on our journey as readers.

What’s new?• We’ve started a “collection-of-round-corners” for

our younger readers: books where pictures stand out (even) more and where we offer discoveries through observation.

• Our “young adults” collection has already taken “two steps and a leap”: these are books with more text but always with space for illustrations.

In any case – whether intended for younger or older readers –Planeta Tangerina’s books always have an advantage: they are not closed. Everyone reads what they want and like best.
