    Reading for kids (in german)

    Once a month, it becomes magical in Willisau.
    We invite children to a special storytelling hour – with tales from different universes, strong heroes, clever animals, and courageous characters. A space to listen, to wonder, and to dream.

    Afterwards, there will be a small creative session – drawing, asking questions, or simply lingering a little longer in the story.

    For the crowdfunding campaign, we are releasing only a limited number of spots. With your contribution, you secure a place for the first storytelling season while also supporting the development of our children’s and family program.

    Silent Reading spot

    One evening. One space. Books. And silence.
    Once a month, we open the shop after closing time for shared silent reading. Everyone brings their own book or discovers one on site. We begin with a short welcome – then read quietly for 60 minutes. Afterwards, there’s an opportunity to stay, have a drink, and connect.
    A protected space for focus, exchange, and literary community.
