Why can’t I find Usborne books I saw on social media on your website?

Like many companies, Usborne has global social media channels - so our English language social media is intended for consumers across the English-speaking world.

However there are some differences in our publishing programs across countries which mean that not all books are available in all markets, or they may be published at different times.

The books shown on Usborne.com are a good indication of what is available in the US at the current time.

The majority of Usborne books are written and designed by our in-house team, at our offices in the UK. However our fiction range is acquired from authors via literary agents. This is a more traditional publishing model, and one which can often lead to rights restrictions - if we are not able to buy US publishing rights from authors' agents, we are not able to distribute those books in the USA.
