Today, PSS! still publishes approximately ten Mad Libs books a year. Mr. Stern and Mr. Sloan went on to found in Los Angeles. In 1986, Price Stern Sloan had inked a video agreement with MCA Home Video for distribution of PSS titles the company was planning on to produce, and the first two productions would budget it for the $100,000 range and the deal was handling for three years, handling worldwide rights to the Price Stern Sloan projects. The Putnam Publishing Group (now the Penguin Group, and now part of Penguin Random House) bought Price Stern Sloan in 1993, and in 1997 the headquarters were moved to New York. Though Penguin Random House still publishes titles that used to be published by Price Stern Sloan, they no longer use Price Stern Sloan as an imprint. (en)
