Five printed Wander Haven issues standing in a row, the nearest showing its cover: Issue Five, “The First Impression”.
What is Wander Haven?

A monthly printed chapter book for readers K–3. Your child reads on paper, makes the story's choices on a device, and the creatures they befriend arrive as real trading cards.

The printed book, open at a choice: the glowing egg across the left page, and on the right “The Portal is Open”, the question, and a QR code to scan.
Step 1
Read on paper.

The story reaches a choice — scan the code.

The same moment on a tablet, asking “Which Nolu calls to you?” with Fanelle, Scorki and Peblaff to choose between.
Fanelle's trading card: its portrait above, its two abilities below, and its name across the foot.
Step 2
Choose on the website.

… and Fanelle arrives in the mail.

Every month you will receive
One book to read.

One 60–70-page chapter book, printed. Reading happens on paper.

Choices on web.

When the story reaches a choice, scan the QR code in the book. Your child is the hero — cracking STEM puzzles, making the hard calls, and bending the story with every decision.

Cards to collect.

Every month your child receives a five-card pack for reading. The cards build into a deck they can show off, play with friends, and trade.

Everything kids love about games — built into a story

One story, growing the whole child —
curious, thoughtful, and hungry for reading.

A new issue every month — and a WOW moment every time the package arrives.

Fun like a game. Safe like a book.

No ads, no in-app purchases, no chat

Nothing between your child and the story.

No game loops

No points, no levels, no endless play.

Reading happens on paper

Screen time is under five minutes per chapter — just for the choices.

Written by a mom with two kids

Every chapter is one I'd hand to my own kids.

A note on AI: I wrote the story and every chapter outline. AI helps with the first drafts and the illustrations. I edit every line before release.
