Revolutionizing Children’s Storytelling in the Digital Age
Founded in October 2020 by husband-and-wife duo Simon Hood and Charlene Mitchell-Hood, Sooper Books is a UK-based digital platform offering a vast collection of children’s stories. With a mission to make high-quality storytelling accessible to all, the company provides free, ad-free digital storybooks and audiobooks for children aged 2–10.
A Unique Approach to Investment
In a notable appearance on BBC’s Dragons’ Den in 2024, the founders secured a historic deal by offering each of the five dragons a 1% stake in exchange for £1, emphasizing the value of mentorship and connections over capital.
Expanding Horizons
Beyond digital offerings, Sooper Books is exploring physical publications and licensing opportunities, aiming to bring their stories to life on stage and screen.
