But this week we speak to the founder of a children’s magazine publisher proving the kids are alright. And as Poland gets its own edition of ‘Vogue’, we pick the brains of its editor in chief. Plus: the print rebirth of an English-language title based in Japan.

‘Anorak’

Cover art for The Stack

If your idea of a kids’ magazine is a garish compilation of maze puzzles with free tat stuck to the front cover, you’re clearly unfamiliar with ‘Anorak’. Founded in 2006, it’s a quarterly magazine aimed at girls and boys aged six to 12 and designed to be as collectable as mum and dad’s favourite subscriptions.

On its rough-and-ready cover, two models pose in front of a black Volga car with the imposing Soviet-era Palace of Culture and Science looming in the background.
