We make branded activity books for charities, schools and community groups.
You bring the audience. We design, produce, and set up your book for print — ready to sell, gift, or use as a fundraiser on Amazon, under your name.
Our published work
These are the kinds of books we make.
Every one of these was built from scratch — puzzle design, illustration, layout, cover. We know what it takes to get a book from idea to Amazon shelf.
Who we work with
If you have an audience, we can make them something to hold.
Charities & Non-Profits
A fundraising puzzle book, a branded coloring resource for clients, or a thank-you gift for donors. Something tangible that carries your name.
Disability & Health Organisations
Therapeutic activity books for the people you support. Accessible formats, appropriate challenge levels, and content designed around real needs — not off the shelf.
Schools & Educators
Branded resources for students, a fundraising activity book, or a curriculum-linked workbook. Published under your school's name.
Businesses & Brands
A branded book for a campaign or community initiative. No minimum print run — Amazon prints on demand.
Creators & Coaches
You have the content and the community. We'll turn it into a published book you can sell, gift, or use to grow your reach.
Anyone with a specific idea
If the book you're imagining doesn't exist yet, that's usually worth making. Tell us what you have in mind.
Formats we build
Pick a format. Or tell us what you need.
Puzzle & Cipher Workbook
Story-driven substitution cipher puzzles. A symbol key is always provided — looks impressive, completely manageable. Ideal for ages 6 and up, including adults with learning differences.

Cryptogram & Word Puzzles
Accessible, story-form cryptograms designed for children and adults alike, including those with special cognitive needs.
Sudoku & Logic Puzzles
Graded difficulty with clean, spacious grids. From gentle starter levels to the genuinely hard. 100–300 puzzles per volume.

Big, guided dot marker pages for toddlers and early learners. Numbers, animals, shapes, themes — educational and fun.
Something bespoke
Have an idea that doesn't fit a category? Tell us your audience, your content, and what you want the experience to be. We'll work it out together.
The process
From idea to live on Amazon in four steps.
Brief
Tell us your audience, the format you're thinking, and what you want the book to do. No publishing knowledge needed.
Quote & scope
We confirm exactly what's included, the timeline, and the cost. You know what you're getting before anything starts.
Build & review
We design the interior and cover. You review, give feedback, we revise. It should feel like yours — because it is.
Live on Amazon
We deliver print-ready files and walk you through KDP, or handle the upload. Your listing, your royalties, your book.
Why Paper Floats
Silver Wing Detective Academy started because one person — a 19-year-old with Down syndrome who loved substitution ciphers — couldn't find enough of them anywhere. Activity magazines only ever had one or two per issue. So a book was made full of them. That book is now on Amazon, ranked in Children & Adolescent's Health. That specific thinking — who actually needs this, and what do they need it to do — is what we bring to every project.— Paper Floats
