Welcome to Van Driel Publishing
Foreign Rights
At Van Driel Publishing, we believe in the power of stories to spark imagination, nurture growth, and create meaningful connections across cultures. Based in Belgium, we are an independent publishing house passionate about bringing high-quality, heartwarming stories to readers of all ages.
Our catalogue includes beautifully illustrated children’s books, educational kamishibai story cards, and compelling fiction titles. What ties all our publications together is our commitment to authenticity, emotional depth, and stories that stay with you long after the last page.
Van Driel Publishing is led by Terènce Van Driel, founder and publisher, and Julie Rodríguez, translator and copywriter. Together, we work closely with a dedicated team of authors, illustrators, and educators to create books that truly make a difference. Personal connection, strong editorial guidance, and attention to detail are at the heart of everything we do.
We’re always looking to build meaningful partnerships and would love to share our stories with readers around the world.
