What is Barefoot Books? 
Barefoot Books is an independent children's book publisher based out of Concord, MA. Barefoot was started by two moms who wanted books for their children that encouraged them to use their imaginations and explore the world around them. Now, nearly 20 years later, Barefoot is a world-wide community of people who are dedicated to providing timeless stories and captivating art that helps children become engaged members of society.
