Capturing the imagination of teen and middle grade readers

Who We Are: Our Mission & Vision

Owl's Nest is a small-press independent publishing house specializing in fiction, classics, and poetry for adolescents. 

Our mission and vision is to produce high quality books for teen and middle grade readers that are true, beautiful, and good reflections of the adolescent experience.

At Owl's Nest, we make space for literature that reflects the in-between, magical years between childhood and adulthood. Our goal for all our published works is that Owl's Nest books and stories will be ones that adolescents enjoy—and that parents, grandparents, librarians, teachers, and homeschoolers feel confident handing to their young readers.

For Readers

We release original stories for teen and middle grade readers and curate vibrant reprints of classic reads.
