taotime books

Taotime publishes media that promote a mindful attitude to life. Since 2011 we have been publishing new translations of ancient Chinese texts with original modern calligraphy, such DaoDeJing (Tao Te Ching), children's books by the well-known American author, Don Freeman (author of Corduroy), and other books for children and adults associated with contemporary thoughts and ideas on mindful living. Our line of English titles includes never before published titles by Don Freeman and new talented children's book writers and illustrators. The source for our content is always a sense of joy in life and in living as a response to the hectic pace of our times. Due to their graphic content and high print quality, our physical books are meant to be held in the hands; they invite "slow reading" and an inner dialogue with the texts and images.
