About us
We make books you do something with.
Prado Publishing is an independent publisher. Since our first title in 2024, our books have gone on to Amazon one by one. Here you’ll find 19 of them — 12 coloring books, 3 game and activity books, 3 journals and 1 guide — each sold by Amazon.
What we believe
-
Screen-free on purpose
Color it, play it, solve it, write in it. Every book we publish is something to do with your hands and your attention — a reason to put the phone face-down for an evening.
-
See it before you buy it
Every interior preview on this site is a real page taken from the book’s print-ready file, so you know exactly what you’re getting. No stock photos standing in for the real thing.
-
Honest labels
Some of our books are cozy and gentle; a few have swear words or psychedelic art. Each one says who it’s for. Psychedelic is an art style, not a warning — but adults-only titles are kept off our homepage and away from the family books.
-
Made to be easy to enjoy
Our Bold & Easy line uses thick outlines and open spaces for relaxed coloring, and our adult coloring books are printed single-sided so markers don’t ruin the next design.
Imprints & pen names
Most of our books carry the Prado Publishing name. Some are published under pen names that suit their genre — our cooperative mystery game Date Night Case Files is written as Cipher Crow.
