Who We Are

Heinemann-Raintree Library is a PreK-Secondary nonfiction publisher and part of the Global Library group, a business unit of Pearson International, which is a division of Pearson Inc.  We employ a child-sensitive approach to publishing that emphasizes high-impact content designed to engage readers and elicit the most important reader response of all-an authentic sense of awe about the real world in which they live and the thirst to learn more about it.

Our products routinely feature dynamic content presented in an inviting manner under the assumption that nothing is more compelling, exotic, and inspiring than the world as it is.  However, this enticing world can sometimes escape us, especially without a little help from a trusted source.  Therefore, unsurpassed care and due discrimination are exercised to ensure that topics, text, and graphics are always "just right" to maximize the reader's personal growth and academic development, as measured by curriculum standards.

Simply put, Heinemann-Raintree Library helps readers to recognize and better understand their world, and in doing so addresses the educational needs of readers and the curricular concerns of educators.  Every Heinemann-Raintree Library book:

• has been expertly crafted to inspire further investigation
• features high-impact, high-quality photographs closely matched to the text and topic
• delivers essential nonfiction features (glossary, index, bibliography) and more according to the topic and need
• offers highly effective graphic support as necessary, including informative captions, diagrams, maps, charts, fact boxes, recipes, and more as required
• carefully considers and addresses the needs of educators
• is correlated to state and national standards
• includes only grade-level appropriate content
