These books are actually great quality, fun, and so different than anything else we have on our shelf. I love that my daughter is exposed to so many different cultures and places.

My friend gifted me a subscription to StoryCaptain when I was pregnant with my 2nd child, and I only wish we’d known about this sooner! It was the most unique and actually useful gift we received.
-Rebecca A.
Love this subscription! And it’s a great price for such unique books, I can tell there’s a lot of thought and care that goes into finding great books.

Reading aloud to your little one is the #1 thing parents can do to set them up for future academic success. The impact lasts for years!
Studies* show that regularly reading to toddlers can lead to higher test scores all the way through high school. Controlling for family income, the difference is often more than a half year’s schooling!

We undertake an extensive process to identify books that bring together great stories, have beautiful illustrations, and are sure to spark your child’s imagination. We start by compiling a list of all the books that relate to our theme and review each and every one – often hundreds each month!
Our final selection includes input from two experts: a children’s librarian and a highly accomplished children’s author. Each month, we are looking to uncover two to three hidden treasures per club that are not already on your bookshelf and that showcase diverse perspectives on the theme.
To ensure it’s a surprise for both you and your little one, we purposely don’t publicize the contents of upcoming boxes!
Your first box will be shipped within 3 business days of your order. Subsequent boxes will be shipped either at the beginning or the middle of future months.
