Little, Brown to Publish Dinotrux Books

By Dianna Dilworth 

Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, a division of Hachette Book Group, will publish children’s books based on DreamWorks Animation’s television series Dinotrux.

Little, Brown has licensed the rights to publish the television show tie-in books. This includes the rights to produce storybooks and board book formats in the US and Canada. The show, an original series distributed by Netflix, is originally based on a picture book series by Chris Gall which is also published by Little, Brown Books for Young Readers.

The new line of books are slated for publication in April 2016. Kara Sargent, executive editorial director, brand, licensed, media tie-in publishing, will oversee the editorial direction.
