The Great CBC Board Book Roundup

An up-to-date list of currently in-print board books from CBC member publishers.

New in late 2025, the CBC has compiled a list of every new and backlist board book currently in print and published by CBC member publishers. We hope this will be a fantastic new resource for teachers, librarians, booksellers, education specialists, and caregivers.

Board books are particularly important because they are often a child’s first introduction to the wonderful world of reading. Many titles are available in multiple languages or bilingual editions, offering young readers and their families a broader global perspective from the very beginning.

Sized just right for little hands, board books are filled with stimulating pictures, engaging stories, and serve as an essential first step in helping children become lifelong readers.

The CBC invites you to explore our comprehensive list of board books, available both as a downloadable spreadsheet of all 4,000+ titles and as a curated visual selection of over 340 board books.

Beyond our full list, you’ll also find a variety of CBC resources that dive deeper into the importance of board books and spotlight exceptional titles across languages and themes:
