Enter Loving Books, a new initiative blending traditional wisdom with innovative technology to create a series of children’s books that are as fun as they are meaningful.
Founded by lawyer and mother Dinukshi Fernando, Loving Books offers S.M.A.R.T. Books™—beautifully illustrated hardcover stories that speak directly to children through interactive features. The books combine storytelling with AI-powered voice conversations, animated pages, audiobooks, online games, and even coloring pages that unlock secret kindness messages.
