The Speaking Book
Books of Hope, LLC
Solution Overview & Benefits
Speaking Books® provide access to important information through culturally relevant artwork and audio narration in local languages. Each book covers critical topics, delivering content in an engaging format at the push of a button, often using a local celebrity's voice. The concept aims to empower individuals with essential knowledge, improving community well-being.
The Speaking Book is a hardcover, customized, 16-page book accompanied by audio recordings for each page, designed to the specifications of individual customers to communicate specific messages.
By providing books that speak to illiterate and low literacy individuals, Speaking Books aim to arm individuals with critical information to improve their physical, financial and social standing.
Voice recordings are usually done by local celebrities which further empowers communities, generates excitement around the information and lends credibility to the messages.
History & Development
In 2005, the first two Speaking Books® were launched at the Global Health Conference in Washington, D.C. Following SADAG’s success with the Speaking Books®, it was clear that these audio books could be expanded to many other health and social issues all over the world and so Speaking Books® was born. We have since focused on working with global health organizations to promote numerous health, social, and literacy topics around the world.
Speaking Books® are truly a cost effective “edutainment tool”, giving people access to critical, life-saving information they never dreamed of having access to previously. A simple, yet innovative concept, each book brings to life an important topic through culturally relevant artwork and text and actually speaks to people in their own language at the push of a button, often through the voice of a local celebrity. Speaking Books® arm individuals with important information while also empowering communities to live a better life.
Working with a wide range of clients, we’ve created hundreds of thousands of books, covering more than 100 topics in over 40 languages that have been distributed in 35 countries.
We exist to help organizations reach communities that previously seemed unreachable, by delivering critical messages that empower, educate and save lives.
