CLARK FREEPORT, Philippines – Books have the unique ability to transport readers to different worlds and offer glimpses into diverse experiences from struggles to triumphs.

So to continue its mission to make literature more accessible, Big Bad Wolf Books kicks off its first book sale of this year at the SMX Convention Center Clark in Pampanga.

The book sale, which runs from March 14 to 23, 10 am to 10 pm, highlights Big Bad Wolf’s commitment to empower, inspire, and connect communities through affordable books.

Ley Almeda, Big Bad Wolf’s project director, said that the company has remained committed to its mission since it was founded in 2009. She added that their successful campaign last year aimed to reach one million new readers by tapping smaller cities, increasing readership in more areas.

“We stand by our mission to make books accessible and affordable. We had a campaign last year to reach one million new readers. So when it comes to the readership growth, we have achieved that and that is not just in other countries but also in the Philippines since we started going to smaller cities here like Bacolod, Iloilo, Cagayan de Oro, and General Santos in 2023 and 2024,” Almeda said.
