FOREIGN RIGHTS
We are an independent publishing house founded in 2020 in Emilia Romagna, Italy, specialized in publishing for children and young adults. We publish picture books, fiction, graphic novels and essays for teaching.
The soul of the publishing house is in its name: Sabir means ‘knowledge’ in a language that is many languages, it was in fact the lingua franca spoken in all the ports of the Mediterranean Sea, meeting points for goods, cultures, ideas and adventures, for almost a thousand years.A language that was used for trade, to exchange one’s ‘diversities’ with one another, and was made up of a mix of various languages (Italian, Spanish, Arabic, Catalan, Sardinian, Greek, Occitan, Sicilian, Turkish….).
The experimentation of the publishing house is aimed at finding common languages, meeting points to be able to understand and accept each other, despite the differences.
Precisely because of this research work, we have focused on creating new books. That is why we do not purchase titles that have already been published in Italy or abroad. However, we are delighted to see that our books are appreciated and translated into many different languages around the world.
Our books are organised in six thematic series
- Lallero, the picture books serie, the largest part of our production.
- The fiction dedicated to different age groups: The Gems (7+) and The Silks (10+).
- In Itinere, non-fiction dedicated to innovative education.
- The Pilot books, the graphic novels.
- Explorations, our special products.
