About Us

What on Earth! is a small but mighty publishing team based in the UK and US. Founded by bestselling author and journalist Christopher Lloyd, the company is devoted to bringing all children the most trustworthy and inspiring non-fiction books and magazines available anywhere. We use emotional warmth, playfulness and surprise to engage children’s natural curiosity and keep them happily and safely learning about the real world, which we believe is far more amazing than anything you can make up!
