BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Trilogy of children’s books with merchandising rights for the characters
Ref.IE075
Location Derbyshire
Asking Price £ 299,950
Turner Butler are delighted to be able to bring to market arguably the best children's books and characters package to appear in many years. The books are based on a group of 500 year old characters that help profile present-day concerns. There has never been a better time for a product with such a strong message to be launched.
Aimed at a wide variety of age groups, this high-quality, humorous and bold three-book series features an array of idiosyncratic characters who live in the picturesque setting of the Peak District. The stories focus on the issues that face children today, such as bullying, the environment, fair play and staying healthy through exercise and diet. The characters, although from a bygone era do relate strongly to the modem-day world and speak to an age range that spans small children to young adult and beyond.
As with all the most successful children's characters they will appeal to a much wider audience than that at which it was originally aimed. Adult approval is all-important and this series scores highly with its strong citizenship qualities and powerful social messages. Indeed, the trilogy, although not fully launched, has received rave reviews and a hugely positive response from readers and professionally interested parties (police, teachers etc) alike.
In addition to the two books already written there will be a third to complete the trilogy; the characters are ready for manufacture and the sale package includes full worldwide publishing and broadcasting rights. It also covers worldwide distribution and licensing rights over 13 categories (patent in place).
Expansion Potential
The expansion prospects of this property are immense due to the variety of areas this brand can cover, In short, this is a product that can be as great as your imagination can conceive - the commercial categories are already in place.
