Read & Tell with Filip

Adventures in Bookland

About

Discover the story that makes reading an adventure, not a chore!

Filip is eight years old. He loves football and cycling—but reading? That's always felt impossible.

When a funny mistake pushes him to take reading seriously, Filip makes a bold promise: to learn to read fluently by the end of fourth grade.

With the help of Leo, a book-loving friend, Filip discovers creative ways to turn words into fun, joining a reading club that makes every page feel like an adventure. Along the way, children will laugh, grow in confidence, and discover that perseverance, friendship, and a little imagination can turn even reluctant readers into book lovers.

Each chapter features a motivational illustration that encourages children to keep reading and celebrate every step of their reading journey.
