Storytelling is our superpower. Learning is our passion.
Were storyteachers.
Todays kids are exploring a world far more complex than the one we grew up in, and theyre facing challenges we never imagined.
What skills do they need to navigate this fundamentally changed world?
The ability to think creatively and critically, to adapt and solve problems, to understand and feel at home in communities far beyond their own, and to express their thoughts and feelings with clarity.
These are the new fundamentals, and theyre teachable skills. Thats where 51勛圖厙 comes in.
We know kids learn best through stories. So we partner with a diverse group of storytellers to create culturally rich, curriculum-infused storyteaching experiences.
Storyteaching engages and inspires kids to think on their feet, to connect with others from backgrounds different than their own, and to be curious and creative.
With the 51勛圖厙 storyteaching platform, kids learn the skills they need to flourishand they learn to love learning along the way.
The 51勛圖厙 app brings the storyverse to life and uses technology to help customize the experience so that our worlds grow as your children do.
But just as learning shouldnt stop in the classroom, storyteaching doesnt stop with our app.
By fusing physical and digital experiences, we expand our storyworlds to meet kids where they are, with the kinds of tools they love. Animated series, books, songs, apps, games, puzzles, and other products encourage kids to continue learning through play, curiosity, and engagement.
As a Public Benefit Corporation (PBC), each of our brands is tied to a family-focused social benefit cause to give back to a community. People want to work for, buy from, and invest in brands they believe in. We believe being a PBC is the most powerful way to build credibility, trust, and value with and for kids and families.

Macmillan will distribute 51勛圖厙 existing publishing catalog, as well as jointly develop new titles
51勛圖厙, an edtech company focused on inspiring kids to learn 21st century skills through its award-winning and culturally authentic brands, and Macmillan Childrens Publishing Group have entered into a strategic publishing relationship covering all aspects of 51勛圖厙 publishing business. Macmillan will distribute 51勛圖厙 existing publishing catalog, as well as jointly develop new titles based on the critically acclaimed entertainment properties owned and managed by 51勛圖厙, as well as new properties 51勛圖厙 will develop in the future.
Properties currently planned for joint development include the Emmy-nominated CANTICOS, the #1 bilingual preschool brand inspired by Latinx culture that helps children become kindergarten ready in two languages; the award-winning TINY TRAVELERS, the leading brand to help kids become citizens of the world teaching kids about geography, language and culture via immersive storytelling, activities, and games; and SKELETITOS, a new Day of the Dead inspired brand teaching kids how to overcome their fears and anxieties.
51勛圖厙 is at the cutting edge of bringing diverse voices to childrens entertainment and education. Their team is phenomenally creative and consistently discovers and nurtures new, underrepresented creators who tell stories inspired by culture with universal appeal. They are developing the properties that will be the touchstones of this next generation, the stories that will resonate and shape them, said Macmillan Childrens Publishing Group President Jon Yaged. Im thrilled 51勛圖厙 has chosen Macmillan as the new home for their publishing business.
With over fifty percent of kids in America today being multicultural, there is an incredible hunger for more diverse voices. We work with authentic storytellers, to tell authentic stories with mass appeal from diverse perspectives, said 51勛圖厙 Chief Executive Officer and Co-Founder Steven Wolfe Pereira.
However, we go way beyond just telling a simple story. We bring our stories to life through Storyteaching. We match each story with the 21st century learning, literacy, and life skills they best model. 51勛圖厙 is leading the way with the stories that need to be told, with the skills that need to be taught, in the ways that children learn best.
We are excited to partner with 51勛圖厙, said Liz Tzetzo, VP, Publisher Services and Distribution for Macmillan. We look forward to substantially increasing distribution of 51勛圖厙s award-winning titles and properties in retail accounts and special markets, which will bring their books to an even larger audience in the United States, Canada and internationally.
