if you can read, you can literally do anything.

Just Read—It’s Literally That Simple

Your Literally believes in raising readers who do more than sound out words on a page. We believe reading should be seen as a new way of thinking—of exploring, imagining, connecting, and, and most importantly, making the world a better place.

The best part?
It only takes ten minutes a day.

When you read aloud with your child, you’re building literacy skills just by showing up. Those ten minutes say, “I’m here, I see you, I value this time with you.” Then, over time, it happens: books stop being homework and start being invitations into curiosity, imagination, and meaningful conversations. That’s the foundation of a lifelong love of reading.

“Since we received the box, both of my kids began to tell the stories in all the books we have been reading in their own way. It has been amazing to see how quickly this has helped both use their imagination.”
