About Puffin...
In 2010 Puffin will be 70 years old. Sounds ancient, doesn't it? But Puffin has never been so lively. Always on the lookout for the next big idea. Which is how it began all those years ago.
Penguin Books was a big idea from the mind of a man called Allen Lane, who in 1935 invented the quality paperback and changed the world. And from great Penguins, great Puffins grew, changing the face of children's books forever.
Puffin was hatched in 1939 and the first Puffin story book featured a man with broomstick arms called Worzel Gummidge. In 1967 Kaye Webb, Puffin Editor, started the Puffin Club, promising Allen Lane that it will make children into book readers. She kept her promise. The Puffin Book Club is still going strong today and is just one of the ways that Puffin has established its place in the hearts of millions.
