Weston Woods creates audiovisual adaptations that are faithful reflections of the books themselves, seeking the best books from all over the world and adapting them in such a way as to preserve the integrity of the original. By doing so, Weston Woods helps children discover the riches that are trapped between the covers of the books and motivate them to want to read for themselves.
