"Most kids today are told that it's a small world, when in fact it's a really big world," says Encantos CEO and Tiny Travelers creator and author Steven Wolfe Pereira. "And because the world is so big, there are many countries, cities, and cultures that have yet to be discovered and explored by kids. We created Tiny Travelers to foster curiosity, empathy, and understanding by learning what makes people and places so special."

"Purpose is at the core of the Tiny Travelers launch... The goal is to expose kids to the vastness and diversity of the world beyond their backyards, engendering empathy for different cultures, geographies and languages at a time when people all over the world are more connected than ever via digital platforms."- Forbes

"The books are full of fun facts, hidden "easter eggs", and rhyme-based storytelling. They're infused with keywords from the featured country's language, helping teach kids correct pronunciation and useful phrases for travel." - Parentology
