In May 2020, Jane Mount, founder of Ideal Bookshelf, created an illustration of non-fiction books to read to be anti-racist and to make us all better people.
We make things for people who love books.
I started Ideal Bookshelf in 2008, painting the books that change people's lives. I wrote and illustrated a book about books called Bibliophile, published by Chronicle Books in 2018. In 2012 (with writer Thessaly La Force) I made a book called My Ideal Bookshelf, published by Little, Brown, and full of the favorite books of 100+ famous creative thinkers.
Ideal Bookshelf is now a (very) small team of folks, working to create beautiful things and send them out to you as quickly as possible. Visit the website to learn more.
