Our Story
The Digital Age and the Decline of Reading
In the bustling world of the 21st century, amidst the digital revolution, a group of passionate educators, child psychologists, and avid readers noticed a concerning trend. The joy of reading, once the cornerstone of childhood, was dimming in the bright light of screens. Research from organizations like the OECD and the National Literacy Trust pointed towards a decline in children’s reading enjoyment and a growing gap in critical thinking skills (National Literacy Trust, 2020; OECD, 2019). Studies promoted by the World Economic Forum and the UN also emphasized the role of books and a reading habit as critical contributors to both academic and non-academic success over a lifetime—an essential requirement for 21st-century students.
Writing a New Story with Each Young Reader
Our story is one of transformation—of education, of reading, and most importantly, of the young learners who join us on this journey. It is a story we are proud to write every day, with every book and every child who becomes part of The Book Therapy family.
The Lit Box: More Than Just Stories
The Book Therapy’s Reading Programme was meticulously crafted to be fun, relevant, and natural. Each Lit Box, brimming with handpicked books, is an invitation to explore diverse worlds, thoughts, and perspectives. These are more than just stories; they are stepping stones toward building empathy, enhancing comprehension, and nurturing critical thinking—skills that are essential in today’s ever-evolving global landscape. With each new Lit Box, readers progress to more complex content and contexts, designed to take them from where they are to where they aspire to be.
A Commitment to Transforming Education
Our commitment, however, extends beyond simply curating books. We are dedicated to making education accessible, enjoyable, and relevant. By combining the pleasure of reading with the demands of learning, we are carving a new path in education—one that respects tradition, embraces the present, and looks eagerly towards the future.
“Bookory are such joy ... to be cherished, handled with pleasure, read and reread and handed down to the next generation”
john smith / founder
This observation ignited a spark, leading to the birth of The Book Therapy—a venture with a mission to not only revive the allure of reading but to transform it into a powerful tool for learning and cognitive development in the modern world. Our founders, a team of experts in education, child development, and literature, envisioned a world where reading would act both as a window and a mirror for young minds—reflecting their realities while offering new perspectives into others.
