Listening comprehension
Narration helps children follow characters, events, feelings, and ideas.
Reading confidence

Story time adds up

Our mission
Every child deserves the freedom to read.
Nearly 6 in 10 ten-year-olds in low- and middle-income countries cannot read and understand a simple story. Reading builds confidence and unlocks almost every other form of learning, and Joey Books exists to help more children get every opportunity to learn to read.
