Starting with just an idea and a passion for storytelling, we launched MTM Publishing with a unique series of children’s books called “The Alphabet Through the Eyes of.” Each book explores a different profession in an engaging and educational way, allowing young readers to envision endless possibilities for their future. Today, we have successfully published six titles in the series and have become a beloved brand in children’s literature.
