We knew that Pockettales was awesome! Teachers love it, kids love it and now big name publishers have told us that they think our idea could have an amazing impact on student learning!

The Global Education Challenge is a new award sponsored by Houghton-Mifflin Harcourt Publishers to identify innovative, game-changing ideas for improving K-12 student outcomes around the world. Amongst the many amazing entries, Pockettales stood out as an amazing product that focused on developing a love of reading through goal-setting, game mechanics, social interaction and feedback. 

As Michael Muldowney, Chief Financial Officer of HMH states, “The goal of the Global Education Challenge was to rally innovative thinkers worldwide to share creative ideas for tools that address the issues inhibiting student achievement, and identify solutions that foster positive student outcomes. These winning ideas illustrate the power that communities can have in generating tangible education solutions.” 

We are so proud of the great team behind Pockettales. A lot of hard work and incredible passion goes into developing a top notch product by our developers and it is nice that they are getting some well deserved recognition from one of the largest book publishers!
