Consortium Announces Two New Publishers for Distribution

MINNEAPOLIS, MINN (April 27, 2026)-Consortium® Book Sales & Distribution, an Ingram Publisher Services LLC ("IPS") brand, announces two new publishers. Publishers for the Fall 2026 season include Do Re Mi Books, commencing distribution June 1, 2026, and The Walking Tree, commencing distribution on July 1, 2026.

"These newly launched publishing programs are both exciting additions to the Consortium list," said Julie Schaper, Vice President, Ingram Publisher Services - Consortium. "We look forward to supporting their growth and helping to build their readership."

Do Re Mi Books is a children's publisher based in London, UK, making playful, distinctive board books and picture books that celebrate the best in contemporary illustration. The Do Re Mi list includes translations of children's books from around the world as well as electric, beautifully produced, child-focused originals. Do Re Mi is inspired by cute, weird, and funny stories and the charm and creativity of Japanese children's publishing. Forthcoming releases include How to Be a Cat by Sam Voulters, illustrated by Yoshiko Hada, and The Cricket in the Violin by Anna Haifisch, translated by David Colmer.

The Walking Tree publishes global literary travel books featuring dynamic storytelling and insightful observations about a city or country. Written by acclaimed authors who know each destination intimately, The Walking Tree's books are unlike traditional travel guides, and offer a local's understanding of a place-its rhythms, its customs, its contradictions, and the thousands of everyday details that make it tick. Among their titles publishing this fall are New York by Catherine Lacey and Tokyo by Emily Itami.
