About us



Wonderspun is an independent publishing studio exploring the immersive future of children's reading experiences.

Our mission is to make reading experiences that come to life by blending word-based imagining with immersive theatre techniques to attract new readers to the world of books and create innovative fictional formats that encourage children into positive social experiences with their peers and family.

We believe in the power of the old, just as much as the new, so we seek to harness the participatory and cocreative potential of digital platforms and social media, and use them to craft new ways of experiencing the transformative power of the written word, the thrilling liveness of theatre, and intimate human connection of oral storytelling.

Our work is grounded in the latest research into immersive storytelling, children's publishing formats, and reading development. As a not-for-profit social enterprise mobilising creative R&D funding, we put all our proceeds back into the development of our games.
