Our Story
Because we believe that the content we consume every day can nourish us or deplete us, we created Ouraan (oor-han, meaning to soar high) to help kids rediscover (or discover it for the first time) the magic of reading and storytelling. This is an invitation to become members of a community fueled by imagination, where shared experiences and great stories combine to power and amaze.
For children, Ouraan is a community to imagine, empower, and connect through the power of books and stories. For parents, it’s a source of reliability and relief.
That is Ouraan. Together, we fly higher.
System of Curation
Content Specialists
A panel of book and reading specialists look through hundreds of titles in the first step of the selection process.
Reviews
Our team reads every book selected, and discusses it with specialists and parents to ensure the quality and message of the selected content.
The B.O.L.D.E. Group
Our club members comprise the B.O.L.D.E. Group. B.O.L.D.E. is an acronym of all club names (Believer. Oyster. Leader. Dreamer. Explorer.) Each month, members read selected books and give their stamp of approval.
Join Our Community
Join our community fueled by imagination, where shared experiences and great stories combine to empower and amaze.
Each month, club members read the same books across the country. They share their thoughts, create their own endings, act out scenes, and sometimes rap or sing their favorite parts of a book. All on our platform.
Reuse & Repurpose
Reuse and repurpose is Ouraan’s motto for sustainability. Our packaging is designed for long-term use to reduce waste. Our canvas bags are made of recycled cotton.
Use your signature blue and gold Ouraan box to store your treasures. Take your Ouraan canvas bag wherever you go. To the playground, school, or grocery store.
