Penguin Books is a UK publishing brand and part of Penguin Random House, publishing fiction, non-fiction and children’s books for a broad readership. Founded in 1935, it began with the idea that readers should be able to find quality books at reasonable prices, helping to launch a paperback revolution. Today, its catalogue spans literary fiction, crime and mystery, romance, fantasy, history and classics, as well as new releases and forthcoming titles by established and emerging authors.

Penguin helps readers find their next book through recommendations, curated reading lists, staff picks, features, author interviews and newsletter updates. Its website also offers reading guides, literary news and suggestions for book clubs. Children’s publishing includes Puffin Books, featuring iconic characters and established and emerging talent, and Ladybird Books, which publishes books with familiar characters for young children.

Through the online Penguin Shop, customers can browse books, special collections and gifts for book lovers. The company also provides information about its publishing, getting published, rights, sales and distribution, partnerships, careers and social impact.
