Who we are

Yes, the name is the print shortcut. We press P for Prints.
Why Ctrl+P?
Because it is the shortcut for printing, and print is what we make.
Meet our authors
Poppy and Alfie are our pen names: two characters who front our two series. The books behind them are written, illustrated and checked by the Control P Prints team, with AI-assisted tools.
Poppy Goodsport
Colour Your Way Into
Poppy thinks every sport starts with a crayon, a grown-up who joins in and a lot of laughing. Her favourite rule: everybody who plays is a winner.
Alfie Tabb
Office Gift Humour
Alfie has sat through every meeting that could have been an email, and kept notes. His favourite shortcut is Alt+Tab, obviously.
