iRewild Little Forest Library
Nurturing Literacy, Imagination, and Endless Possibilities in Philippine Classrooms
In a public elementary school in the Philippines, English teacher Neth Vida “Nanette” Monton faces a quiet crisis. Her classrooms are filled with children who long to read but have few books to hold, few words to practice, and deep struggles to understand them.
In Nanette’s three sections of nearly 130 students, the children who need practice most are the ones with the least to read.
Her vision is as simple as it is profound: to create a small classroom library filled with age-appropriate storybooks—so every child can hold a book of their own, every day.
Because a single book can change a child’s life. Because turning a page can turn despair into possibility.
Why iRewild?
At iRewild, we believe literacy and nature-based wonder are foundations of inner transformation.
When children read daily, they grow attention, empathy, and a love that extends outward-toward each other, toward rivers and forests, toward the living Earth itself.
This initiative advances equity, well-being, and ecological curiosity—a future where how we think shapes how we see, and how we see shapes what the world becomes.
One Library. A Thousand Doors.
One small, well-loved library can turn quiet struggle into daily progress. And daily progress can become a lifetime of doors opening, giving every child a chance to thrive, to see the beauty of the Earth, and to stand in wonder at creation.
How You Can Help
Right now, your gift can place real storybooks into the hands of children who’ve never had one of their own. Every dollar becomes a page. Every page becomes a chance. Every chance becomes a child who not only learns to read but learns to see—themselves, the Earth, and life itself.

If this vision speaks to your heart, we’d love to hear from you. Together, we can grow the Little Forest Library dream—one story, one child, one life at a time.
Because stories belong in every child’s hands
