Jungbrunnen publishers was founded in 1923 by the „Österreichische Kinderfreunde“ organisation, the Austrian „friends of children“. The original intention was to produce quality books for children and youths, mainly for those who didn‘t have easy access to books.
Jungbrunnen books are literary and have mainly realistic themes, they are entertaining as well as suspenseful and they deal with topics which play a role in childrens‘ everyday lives. Our aim is to make children feel at home in our books and let them get in touch with existential questions. Quality in content, language and illustration is still the basis of our production.
