Stronger Readers.
Better Citizens.

Bring social studies into your reading block.
At 241 Books, we combine high-interest stories with knowledge-building social studies so you can strengthen literacy skills and civics education at the same time.
Our engaging print books and classroom-ready units do what most social studies programs don't: they build background knowledge, investigate history, and model real-life skills—all through stories.
