Who We Are
We’re not just another publishing service; we’re an award-winning team of children's book illustrators, designers, and creatives who genuinely care about every book we help create.
For nearly a decade, we’ve helped thousands of new and established authors turn their stories into beautiful, award-winning children’s books... without giving up rights or creative control.
How It All Started
Bear With Us began with two friends (Andy, the writer, and Richie, the designer), frustrated by how indie authors were being treated. Andy wanted to publish his own stories, but publishers wanted rights, royalties, and big fees for underwhelming results.
So, we created a better way.
We built Bear With Us to give authors a fairer, more personal, and more creative path to publication. Today, we’ve helped over 1,000 authors around the world — from first-time parents to teachers and indie storytellers. Many have won major awards. Fun fact: One even had their book read by the royal family.
