About Pont
Pont (the Welsh word for bridge) is the name of the English books for young people published by Gomer Press, the largest independent publishing house in Wales. Pont Books began back in 1991. Our logo shows our intention to build bridges between all the young people of Wales, whatever your background, wherever you live and whichever languages you speak. All our books are written in English, but there is always a strong Welsh connection or background.
We are very lucky at Pont to work with a large number of talented writers and artists, many of whom have won international recognition for their work. We are very proud that the Tir na n-Og prize has been awarded no less than 6 times to Pont authors. We welcome approaches by new writers and illustrators, though it is always a good idea to contact the editor before submitting material.
Whether choosing books for yourself or on behalf of others, we hope you will find what you are looking for at Pont. If you need any help, or if you would like to make a suggestion, don't hestitate to get in touch.
