The Publishing House and its history

Edition Michael Fischer GmbH is an innovative and trend-oriented publishing house based in Munich. It was founded in 1985 and inspires with creative and design-oriented books that are always in tune with the times. In total, more than 380 new titles are published each year. This includes children's and young adult books, books about food and drink, handicrafts, creative lifestyle, self-care and spirituality, painting and drawing, gardening, stationery, games and popular non-fiction books.

EMF's children's book program aims to encourage creativity through play, tell wonderful stories and impart knowledge in an age-appropriate way - and all without pointing a finger. Under the slogan “Books to grow beyond yourself”, around 80 new publications are published each year, aimed at children from the age of 2 to teenagers.

Programm

EMF's children's book range impresses with its diversity: whether books for painting or crafting, picture books, narrative children's books, sticker books, games or non-fiction books - there is something for every taste. At EMF, children and young people not only find cool ideas for getting creative, they can also learn about exciting factual topics in a playful way and at eye level, e.g. about space or the forest. Socially important topics such as diversity, sex education, anti-racism, family images and dealing with death and sadness are also addressed.

EMF publishes its own productions in children's books as well as international licensed titles. Children from the age of 2 learn their first playful contact with the medium of books with colorful cardboard picture books, while the diverse picture books from the age of 3 invite them to laugh, dream and discover. In the narrative children's book program, German authors and illustrators let readers experience a lot in read-aloud stories from the age of 5 and solve gripping detective stories from the age of 8. Readers aged 10 and up can embark on exciting adventures through the desert and through time.

Fans of the young adult and new adult genres will also find something to enjoy: whether it's sizzling romance or thrilling fantasy, these beautifully designed books offer reading material that invites you to dream and share in the suspense, and makes your heart beat faster.

Another highlight are the XXL discovery sets on topics such as space, earth and robotics, which introduce children aged 8 and over to scientific topics in an age-appropriate way. With 3D models to build yourself, exciting experiments and short, easy-to-understand texts, the solar system and the history of flight, among other things, are brought to life.

EMF's books are characterized by their unusual features and design-oriented layout. With great attention to detail, the Munich-based publishing house creates titles for young and old that inspire with their design and have one thing in common: They aim to arouse curiosity, encourage creativity, impart age-appropriate knowledge and, above all, be fun. This is how young readers become courageous world explorers!
