Kohl News: Let’s Read, Discuss and Create Great Books Together
LESLEY DICKSON: At the end of last year we commissioned French-born, Reading-based animator, Chloé Tartinville, to create a quirky animation that would communicate our commitment to publishing great books that; are accessible on multiple platforms, can be discussed within an online community, and are created in collaboration with readers – for instance, enabling readers to [...]
Read MoreWanted: Freelance graphic designer
Kohl is looking for a graphic designer to create a one-off graphic for our website. It will show a buying process as a series of steps, and should be appealing, immediately easy to understand, and save time and words in explaining it through text. A good example is the Graze graphic of how their delivery [...]

LESLEY DICKSON: In January we put out a call for illustrators to apply to design the book jacket for our very first novel. We received an overwhelming response; lots of retweets, new international following, and a heck of a lot of love from the creative community in the UK and beyond. Following a torturous weekend of [...]

SOPHIE MACKINTOSH: If you haven’t heard of Samantha Brick, you must have been doing something much more important than glancing at any newspaper for the last week (my guess is selecting underwear models for Men’s Health).

Snowed in Scotland
How mad has the weather been for the last week? Aberdeenshire went from 23 degrees of scorching sunbathing to snow in under a week. My friend took advantage of being snowed in to make us a books-in-freezing-kohl(d)-places picture. This cheeky snowman looks like he could do with a can of Irn-Bru! Got a books-in-kohl-places pic? [...]

Gaudy bookselling
This snap was sent from the sunny Spanish Sagrada Familia. Thanks to Nina Haese of Germany for remembering Kohl on her holidays! La Sagrada Familia is one of the most impressive sites of Barcelona, and is definitely one of the coolest book-in-a-Kohl-places we’ve ever had. The basilica was actually dreamed up by a bookseller in [...]
Take a seat, Bolivia
Now this is a book in a really Kohl place – Salar de Uyuni in Bolivia to be exact. While this great expanse appears to be snow, it’s actually salt and while this looks like Jenny’s sitting on a book, she’s actually not (of course!). ‘Tis all a bit deceptive, really. Ah ha! Now we [...]
whatever’s lion around
So… we nicked the title from The Lion King. That’s because one Kohl kid watched it 32 times in a row as a child and can recite the entire film, complete with songs. Oddly, this skill is not one for which there is much call as an adult. Posing with the lions at Blairdrummond Safari [...]
