Do all children receive the same books?
Yes, each child within an age group receives the same monthly book unless in the event of unforeseen circumstances where books are unable to be indented, we will swap with another book of similar or equivalent educational value.
What kind of books will my child receive?
We make sure children receive an appropriate book by allocating them to an age group based on their year of birth. For example, children born in 2019 will receive board books with minimal text focusing on nurture and attachment, whereas a child born in 2015 will receive a softcover picture book, covering more complex concepts. A child enrolled from birth to their fifth birthday will build their own home library of up to 60 books.

You may sign your baby up as soon as they are 1 years old!

How do you choose the books?
All titles are recommended by local publishing house. Project 60 Books and the local publishing house communicate regularly to review and refresh the book list, drawing on their years of experience in early years and education. This ensures each book is age-appropriate, and the list features a broad range of titles, authors, and genres.
