Bookelicious Builds Strong Reading Identities and Matches Kids with Books They’ll Love
Bookelicious is a discovery tool that helps children build strong reading identities by leveraging innovative technology, expert curation, and fun to match kids with books they truly want to read.
We offer books, programs, and events for students, educators and families to engage and energize readers. Our approach is research-based, and our collection of more than 40,000 titles is diverse and inclusive. To date, our cutting-edge platform has been used in more than 4,500 schools nationwide.
Based on Research
Bookelicious was specifically designed to aggregate, streamline and actualize the following principles, based on decades of research:
- Reading volume develops vocabulary, fluency, comprehension and achievement
- Reader-centric experiences drive reading motivation, engagement and volume
- Books should be (in the words of Dr. Rudine Sims Bishop) “mirrors and windows for all our children”
