About Us
The story behind the stories
Built with love, inspired by family
Faouzi El Bakri is a passionate developer and educator who believes that every child deserves to see themselves as the hero of their own story.
The idea for Magical Hekaya was born watching his four nephews light up at bedtime stories — and wondering: “What if they could see themselves inside the story?”

حكاية
What does “Hekaya” mean?
Hekaya (حكاية) is Arabic for “story” — rooted in the rich oral storytelling traditions of the Arab world, where tales were passed from generation to generation under starlit skies and in cozy corners.
The “Magical” prefix captures the wonder and enchantment every child deserves — turning ordinary bedtime into an extraordinary adventure.
