About Us

Tartuca Books is an imprint coming at you straight from the creative minds at I AM Books, an independent bookstore and cultural hub located in Boston, Mass. 

We seek to publish illustrated children's books that speak to our human need for connection. For this reason we have chosen a tortoise as our logo (her name, by the way, is Connie). We want to slow things down and make sure the world around is appreciated. Children grow up so quickly. It is worth slowing down to read a book together.
