the Open Book Promise
From sunrise to sunset, our promise stays the same.
— to share the gift of new books with every child we can.
Because kindness shouldn’t look scruffy,
it, like every story, deserves a happy ending.
Wonder Wing’s Open Book Promise
Every book a promise, every story a gift.
Stories connect families and help children see the world — and themselves — in new ways.
They remind us that even the ordinary can feel extraordinary.
But not every family has easy access to new books — and that’s where The Open Book Promise comes in.
Our goal is simple: to bring beautiful, high-quality books directly to families who would love them most.
Each parcel is chosen with care and filled with a sense of wonder.
No hoops to jump through, no charity labels — just stories, shared with dignity and care.
Reading for pleasure changes lives — it builds confidence, sparks curiosity, strengthens family bonds, and supports children’s wellbeing and future success. Every story shared has the power to shape a brighter tomorrow.
How It Works
We share stories through trusted community partners and a small number of self-referrals each season. While we can’t promise every request will be successful, every form received helps us understand where stories are most needed — and guides where the next chapter of The Open Book Promise will go. Suggest Where Stories Should Go Next Help us find the shelves that need stories most — from local food banks to community hubs. Whether it’s a family asking for their own parcel or an organisation reaching out on behalf of others, each message helps us keep our promise alive: bringing stories home, one page at a time.
Books don’t just teach — they comfort, connect, and inspire. They turn quiet moments into laughter, strengthen bonds between generations, and help children see their own worth reflected in the pages they read. At Wonder Wing, we believe every child deserves that joy — not as a luxury, but as a birthright.

The Promise Page

Each book donated adds another line to a shared story — one where compassion and imagination meet on every page. Because when one person opens a book for another, they open a world.
