Dynamite Kids Brings New Stories & IP to Young Readers!
New Imprint Focuses on Delivering Timeless Tales That Entertain & Educate


February 18, Mt. Laurel, NJ: 
Dynamite Kids, Dynamite Entertainment’s new juvenile imprint has brought exciting new stories to young readers and has even more in the pipeline this year and beyond!

From originally produced material, to rights acquisitions of original tales, as well as key hit licensed properties, Dynamite Kids offers unique reading and activity experiences for entertaining and educating kids of all ages. With nearly 30 books already released or slated through the end of this year, the brand extension of Dynamite continues to grow.
 


Leading Dynamite Entertainment’s new juvenile publishing imprint is industry veteran Jon I. Rosenberg. Jon is a highly accomplished and creative global business development executive, specializing in originating, and extending existing juvenile content-related brands across a range of media and merchandise in the publishing, and brand-licensing sectors. The former EVP & Publisher of Curiosity Ink Media, VP and Publisher of Silver Dolphin Books, he also headed up MGM Studio’s Licensed Publishing Group.

"I'm thrilled to be at the forefront of leading Dynamite's expansion into the juvenile space," said Jon Rosenberg. "It's an opportunity to not just engage young readers from a very young age, but to get them excited about reading while looking forward to what's coming next, and to ideally develop a love for reading. We're eager to open young minds to a world of possibilities through our original stories for young readers, junior graphic novels, novelty books, and activity books."

Entries in the Dynamite Kids library to date are wide ranging, already garnering critical acclaim and rave from young readers.

Among the most prominent is the hit Thunderous written by Montana's poet laureate M.L. Smoker, Natalie Peeterse, and artist Dale Deforest. The exciting graphic novel adventure follows a young Lakota Native American girl who learns more about her family, culture, and heritage through a coming of age tale full of wonder.

Another standout gem of the line is the League of Forgettable Supervillains, a laughs-bursting take on the tropes of the hit superhero genre.

In two adorable books so far, the inexperienced but fearless switcher train Baldwin works hard and learns the ways of the rails. Whether he's crossing the country to find his lost father or making sure to get Christmas presents to every child, his spirit and the fun of locomotives shines.

In addition to Baldwin's Big Christmas Delivery, Dynamite Kids has produced and released several heart-warming tales perfect for the winter months and the holiday seasons. With a range of target audiences and formats, titles like Santa's Secret Society, How the North Pole Works, Snow Boy, the recently released The Ice Children and Stop That Penguin!, they all offer something for every kind of reader.


This round up does not include titles licensed from some of the biggest children's franchises, and Dynamite Kids is excited to bring even more exciting titles and announcements as 2025 marches on!
