Welcome to My Little Big Town.

My Little Big Town is a publishing company based in Yorkshire, in the United Kingdom. We specialize in publishing books that children WANT to read. that’s fun, silly, imaginative, sometime disgusting, always entertaining books that encourage even the most reluctant of readers to engage with and enjoy books.
Our titles are fun, quirky and written with children in mind (not necessarily for parents). Before we publish anything we ensure that it’s completely ‘Kid Approved’. That often means lots of snot, and bogies, monsters, zombies, insects and all things kooky, spooky and icky!
We publish books in traditional printed format as well as digital (eBooks for Kindle, Nook, Kobo and all popular eBook readers) and interactive books (iPad, Android devices) for young readers of all ages, from 1 to 13 years old.

  • Stuart The Bug Eating Man

    The Tiny Twisted Tales are a collection of short stories and poems from the rather strange mind of Calvin Innes. Each Tiny Twisted Tale is about another weird, scary, wonderfully gruesome character, from people who eat bugs, to tiny toga-wearing goblins. Each book is packed with dozens of Calvin’s quirky illustrations. Stuart The Bug Eating Man is about a man with an unusual taste for all things creepy and crawly. He likes nothing better than munching on a centipede sandwich or guzzling down a tall frosty glass of liquidized slug. Unfortunately his family don’t share his taste in snacks.

People are disappearing fast and no one seems to care. Why are the people of Little Pumpington so miserable? Why has his evil teacher started smelling of wee? Why is Mr Watt so fat? Why does Mr Jolly the Janitor collect hundreds of pairs of false teeth in a cupboard in his workshop?

Each Tiny Twisted Tale is about another weird, scary, wonderfully gruesome character, from people who eat bugs, to tiny toga-wearing goblins. Each book is packed with dozens of Calvin’s quirky illustrations. Pale Henry is the story of a young boy who has spent his whole life hidden away in his attic, afraid to go outside to play with the other children.
