Inspiring children to read books, because they want to read them, not because they have been told to so. Using humour, we can entertain and stimulate your children’s minds. If something is funny, they will remember it.
Our books have been created to deliver humorous children’s stories which your children will want to read over and over again. In the process, they will learn about new parts of the world, a few words in different languages and about some real world issues that they may have to consider as they grow up.
We do not write stories which attempt to explain feelings and opinions of how to cope with and understand the many issues of our modern world. There are thousands of others who can do that, much better than us.
We prefer to stick to childish humour which will make your kids laugh.
UNUS MENS {one mind}
Mission :
Inspiring children to read, and ultimately to write
Enabling children to learn about different countries, culture and languages
Educating children about key aspects of today’s modern world and the problems which need to be recognised, understood and conquered
Unus Mens is our attempt to bring together an affirmative action, based on every child’s right to expand and improve. Many children remain illiterate, whilst the rest are force-fed out-dated concepts, heavy with cultural bias. The populations of this wonderful world, are in desperate need of a unified step forward, in a different direction.
A child is a blank canvas, a seed, a sponge. They learn and adapt based on their surroundings, language, the culture, the belief systems, the integrity and the wisdom of their peers. All of which surrounds and encompasses them during their formative years. Whichever upbringing you provide for your children, will have an overt effect on their place in the world as adults.
The benefit of learning, is the expansion of the mind. The ability to make sense and rationalise previously unseen environments and occasions. It is the primeval urge to discover and experience new feelings, sights and sounds.
Inspired by the insightful perspectives of Sir Ken Robinson, Hans Rosling, Geoff Lawton and others, Unus Mens aims to engage, excite, educate and mold tomorrow’s leaders from the very earliest stages of their lives.
The current choice of reading material for children seems to jump straight from picture books to full-size novels. We believe that there are many children who are missing out, simply because they cannot easily make this huge leap.
Our books will hopefully fill this gap, and allow your children to transition to ‘grown up’ books without losing the pleasure of reading.
