Helping children understand important topics

At BinoBooks, we create personalized e-storybooks on complex topics, that act as conversation starters between parent and child while making the child feel seen through character customizations in the storybook. We’re a proudly female-founded and run team! Our co-founders Jessica Dassanayake, Sydney Terry, and Danielle Baxter met during our time at Queen’s University, where we initially launched our venture through the Queen’s Innovation Centre program in 2020, with a prototype book on covid. As of January 4th, 2022, we successfully completed a crowdfunding campaign for our first official book “Humans Can’t Fly, But They Can” on Kickstarter, which is on the topic of body image. Now, we’re continuing to build storybooks on tough topics, and further develop our character customizations, and technology to ensure every child feels represented in their readings.
