Kres Publishing House was established in 1990 and specialises in translated children literature, but its publishing programme ranges from books by Slovene and foreign authors, including manuals, illustrated books for children and young people, textbooks, to dictionaries (including a Slovenian-Latin dictionary in 6 volumes) and books on ethnological subjects. In collaboration with Ljubljana Puppet Theatre the publishing house also runs a bookshop for children, Under the castle [Pod gradom], on Krekov trg in Ljubljana. Besides a wide selection of books, audio and video CDs it organises a number of literary events: reading hours, book presentations, get-togethers with fictional characters and workshops for developing interest in and motivation for reading among children. Information on performances in Ljubljana Puppet Theatre and tickets are available in the bookshop. Kres Publishing House is also active in the project A Fast Track to Health with Reading [Z branjem krajšamo pot do zdravja], in which patients in the Children’s Hospital of Ljubljana are visited and read to by various storytellers and authors.
