Beanstsack and Comics Plus have announced they have merged together to form The Joyful Reading Company. It’s described as a “connected ecosystem that inspires reading, expands access, and demonstrates impact, all in one place.”
Comics Plus is a digital comics platform focused on schools and libraries serving over 3,500 of them.
Beanstsack uses competition and gamification to help grow reading communities and reading cultures. Think of it as an engine to drive and track school reading challenges.
Together as The Joyful Reading Company the two tech companies are bringing together a reading encouragement platform with a digital reader with a deep catalogue of choices.
Right now, according to the announcement, is a focus on “strengthening the connection between access and engagement.”
The Joyful Reading Company is dedicated to nurturing the love of reading through engagement, motivation, and pure fun. Beanstack keeps readers coming back with gamification, reading challenges, and community, while Comics Plus delivers engaging stories they can’t get enough of.
Together, we’re building something bigger than a platform. We’re building a movement around joyful reading — for schools, for libraries, and for communities everywhere.
We like to think of success as a kid staying up ten minutes past bedtime to finish a graphic novel. Success is a library buzzing with excitement over a community reading goal. That’s the joy we’re here to build.
Those are the kind of happy endings all of us at The Joyful Reading Company can get behind.
