OUR STORY

Multa Verba Books was born out of a love for stories.
It was founded in December 2022 in Ljubljana with the aim of creating original book content for children and young people.

Its founder, Tadeja Pirnat Battelli, is a legal consultant, a writer, and an editor who wanted to bring together authors, illustrators, and artists in a shared effort to shape a rich literary world.
The core guiding principle of the publishing house is the belief that every person has a unique way of expressing themselves – one that comes from the heart and requires courage.

As the founder says:
“Life’s mission is our individual way of expressing our own truth. It is unique and takes great courage. It comes from the heart, not from the mind.”
This idea is also reflected in the name of the publishing house.
The phrase multa verba comes from Latin and means “many words.”
We chose it because words shape our thoughts when we express our life mission.

The name Multa Verba Books and the title of the Story Lux magazine collection combine English and Latin, as this connection is universally understood and accepted as a lingua franca – a language used as a common means of communication among speakers of different native languages.

CREATING A WORLD OF STORIES

Special attention is given to the Story Lux magazine series, which is designed as a publication for different age groups of children and young people, combining narrative, educational, and creative content.

The magazines offer a rich selection of stories, articles, illustrations, and interactive challenges that encourage reading, imagination, and critical thinking.
We also publish original children’s and youth books, including picture books, adventure and contemporary stories, and books with educational content.
Our books are created with the aim of encouraging imagination, exploration, and critical thinking in young readers.

All our publications are available in Slovenian, Italian, and English, enabling the international spread of quality content and connecting readers from different cultures.
