Hooray Heroes (based in the UK) popularized the “You-Here-Too” concept — a second character standing alongside the child in every illustration. They make a quality product and have a strong presence in the UK and European market. Their books are shorter than Mighty Little Books (around 20 pages) and focused on the parent-child bonding angle.
