Research shows: - clear benefits of children that are being read to from an early age. - parents should read to their children in the language they are most proficient in, which might be a different language from the one used in school, and therefore a language that is harder for them to acquire books in.
With BookaBooka I hope to provide all children in the world, including immigrants, expats and refugees with a library in their native tongue, and the privilege of being read to, even if parents aren't willing or able.
I work with a growing network of language enthusiasts that help me translate / narrate our collection. These people work on a semi-voluntary basis (royalty model + low revenue currently resembles volunteer work).
