About Us
PERCUMIN BOOKS
Our Story
My name is Philippe Monfiston, and I am the creator and driving force behind Percumin Books. My journey is fueled by a profound love for language and storytelling. With my background in linguistics, I strive to make literature a joyful and accessible learning experience for people of all ages, inspiring a lifelong love for words.
In the heart of PercuminBooks lies a commitment that extends beyond the mere publishing of texts; it’s a dedication to the art of language and the power of storytelling. Our founder, Philippe Monfiston, started this journey with a vision to bridge the gap between education and entertainment in literature. He believed that every book should be an odyssey in itself, leading readers through a labyrinth of new words, ideas, and cultures.
This ethos is ingrained in every project we undertake, whether it’s a whimsically illustrated children’s book that introduces young minds to the wonders of language, or an adult nonfiction piece that delves into the intricacies of linguistics and wordplay.
Our collection is a carefully curated mosaic of genres and styles, reflecting our belief that diversity in literature is crucial for a well-rounded understanding of the world. We take pride in not only creating stories but also in crafting experiences that leave a lasting impact on our readers.

Percumin Books: Our Story
Percumin Books was born from a simple yet powerful idea: to intertwine the joy of reading with the beauty of language. Founded by Philippe Monfiston, a linguist with a passion for education, our journey began as a small endeavor to create engaging and educational literature. Rooted in our love for words, we’ve grown into a beacon for readers and writers alike. Our name, Percumin, reflects our dedication to fostering a lifelong education in language, celebrating its richness and diversity through our carefully crafted books.
Our Mission & Vision
Our mission is to ignite a passion for language and learning in readers of all ages.
