The Open Door series is an Irish literacy initiative that pairs well-known authors with a brief, straightforward format. Each book is written in plain language and kept short to be welcoming for adult readers who are building their confidence with books. Series 6, published in 2008, includes seven titles from different contributors.

John Boyne’s involvement in the Open Door project reflects the same interest in accessible storytelling that made The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas such a widely read book. The titles in this series, including An Angel at My Back, The Second Child, and Lighthouse, are quick reads that can be finished in a single sitting, which is by design.
