amazing I've gone to sleep with things I never known that I would be asleep in like30 minutes

Ri*****, 2026-07-07

This is a great app with free books from classics to new stories that kids can enjoy and learn to read with lighted text and audio options, My son really enjoys using it, I high recommend. My issues with the app are 1. The age range for books is slightly misleading the books that say 2-4 have words and sentence structure that most 2 year olds wouldn't understand. 2. In the settings you are supposed to be able to set the reading speed based on the age but when I do there is not much difference.
