About Us
Blueberry Hill Books
What makes Bluberry Hill unique?
Blueberry Hill Books was founded with the purpose of creating early literacy books that would motivate children to read and ensure their success. Our fiction titles contain recurring characters the children get to know and love. Our nonfiction titles contain vibrant photographs that motivate children to want to read. New titles are currently under production. Blueberry Hill is a real place and the location of several of the Fluffy and Charlie storybooks. The forest covered hill is sprinkled with blueberries every July. Fluffy likes to eat the blueberries right off the blueberry plants.
The Blueberry Hill catalogue of books presently contains:
- 201 English titles (levels A/1 to L/20)
- 100 French titles (levels A/1 to L/20 see French website)
- 20 Spanish titles (levels A/1 to E/8)
- Six teacher's resource guides

She was a grade one reading specialist for over ten years, working with classroom teachers to help them ensure success for every student. Oksanna Crawley is the author and illustrator for the Super Hammy Adventure Series.
Hi Pat,
I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoy using your books with the young readers I support. Every time we read together, it becomes more evident to me that you devote great time and attention to the way the books are written and illustrated. There are little added tricks and supports that can only come from someone who works on a daily basis with beginning readers.
Large publishing companies produce similar products, but yours are a step above because the issues that young readers face are anticipated and supported in the content and form of the books. I just love them and so do the kids!
Thanks again,
