More Than Just A Book

Each book comes with bonus activity sheets and simple, research-backed tips to help you support the kids in your life long after the story ends.

And the stories themselves are written with so much care. They’re built to help children understand emotions, navigate tough moments, and see themselves in characters who look and feel like them.

We value diversity, real-life challenges, and giving kids a safe, encouraging place to learn and grow.
