Thorndike Press

Thorndike Press Located in Waterville, Maine, Thorndike Press is also home to Wheeler Publishing, Kennebec Large Print, Large Print Press, and Christian Large Print.

Thorndike Press offers the most bestsellers and bestselling authors in large print, an experienced editorial staff working to make library collection development easy, and the expertise of librarian's peers to help in readers’ advisory roles. We’ve published Large Print titles for more than 30 years. We also distribute Large Print titles from other publishers like HarperCollins, Simon & Schuster,

Random House, and Mills & Boon (Harlequins and Silhouettes). Thorndike Press publishes more than 100 Large Print titles every month — the vast majority in the current bestseller and genre fiction categories. We’re proud to offer the largest selection of Large Print bestsellers available anywhere, supporting reading levels from the fourth grade on. Many of our titles are published at the same time or within three weeks of the original publisher’s release, making it easy for libraries to refresh their print collections with the newest and most popular titles.
