ABOUT Baobab House
Baobab House Books and Media is a culturally rooted publishing and storytelling company dedicated to empowering young minds through books that reflect the beauty, strength, and legacy of Black and brown communities. Inspired by the mighty baobab tree long revered across Africa as the Tree of Life we are a house built on deep roots, wide branches, and timeless wisdom.
We believe that every child deserves to see themselves in the stories they read. That’s why our work centers stories that affirm identity, celebrate heritage, and spark imagination. From children’s picture books to multimedia storytelling, we are passionate about planting seeds of confidence, creativity, and cultural pride in every reader.
Whether it's a bedtime story, a classroom read-aloud, or a digital experience, Baobab House is where powerful stories find their home and where future storytellers begin to bloom.
Rooted in Story. Growing in Soul.
