Elephant Rock Books is an independent publishing company based in Connecticut.[1] As of 2013, it is the largest independent publisher in New England.Шаблон:Citation needed The press was initially founded by Jotham Burrello in Chicago in 2010.[2] Burrello decided to start the press while talking with his former teacher, Patricia Ann McNair, about her work; her book, The Temple of the Air, became Elephant Rock's first publication and went on to win positive reviews and several awards.[3] Elephant Rock also published Briefly Knocked Unconscious By A Low-Flying Duck, an essay anthology of the 2nd Story Collective[4] that has won multiple literary prizes.[5]
In 2014 the press moved into the young adult fiction market with Jessie Ann Foley's novel The Carnival at Bray,[6] which was named a Printz Honor Book.[2]
The publisher is backed by a multimedia company, Elephant Rock Productions, which handles accounting and banking.[7]
