Come savor books with us!
Our boutique publishing house ensures that each project is treated with care, from digitally harvesting text out of old editions through multiple proofreaders and into a fresh “new-old-book” typeset.
We also bring ebooks to readers who need accessibility functionality, have limited shelf space, or just want an electronic format for convenience.
We take great care to curate classics that our readers are looking for, and we guarantee the quality of every book.
We’re Smidgen Press: breathing new life into old stories, one book at a time.

Revisit a timeless classic
