My son just started first grade. He loves when I read to him or listening to audio stories but I’ve been looking for something that reads to my child, while actually teaching him to read. These stories have great morals and I love the options for taking away the music or changing the language. More stories please!

FEATURES

FOLLOW
ALONG

By default, the story will be read to you by our narrator, and young readers can follow along with the text through our word highlighting. Creative parents can use a variety of settings to tailor the experience. Choose other languages, read the story yourself or even make up your own story as you go through the pages.

PROFESSIONAL VOICES

We work with professional voice actors who are specifically chosen to match the atmosphere of our projects. The voice over narration of our story is available in multiple languages and performed in a way that is suitable for all ages.

OUTSTANDING VISUALS

Built with the Unity engine, our visuals respond to user interactions with playful animations and effects. Leveraging the advantages of game development technology, all our scenes are hand drawn and layered to create a 3D depth effect, controlled by tilting your device. This makes every scene come to life and helps to immerse the reader in the story.

NO
MONEY TRICKS

We believe that apps for children should include no in-game advertising, nor in-game purchases to unlock certain content. When you buy one of our story book apps you get to use the product in its entirety and as much as you want, uninterrupted.

ENJOYABLE
BY MANY AGES

Our story book apps are designed in such a way that:

Ages 2-4 can marvel at the illustrations, play around with the interactive animations and effects, and listen to the story being told to them by the narrator, their parents or a teacher.

Ages 4-7, who are learning to read, can try to follow along with the narrator through our word highlighting feature.

Ages 7+ can try to read by themselves, or even try out different combinations of voice and text in multiple languages. Ideal for multilingual households or kids who are just starting out with a new language.

Moreover, narration and text can also be completely turned off, to allow the kids, parents or teachers to make up their own story.
