“I knew we really liked these books at home, but having them portable…..that’s great! I am not one to park my child in front of anything as a babysitter, but it was a lifesaver for me in a crunch. She loved it and it was educational.”Sonya, author of Penny Pinching Parent

“I’ve got to tell you this is an awesome idea! What I liked about Mobistories is that, rather than just presenting another movie format, it looks like you are reading a book. They start with a front cover and end with a back cover. The “pages” are turned, so it looks like reading a book. The words are printed, as well as read aloud. This re-enforces the words for the child who is reading along.”
Julie, author of Mom 2 Ways

“Kids love to be on the computer. Here is a great way for them to do something educational. They can enjoy a virtual book. Since reading is a very important skill for a child to learn here is way a child can enjoy reading a book but on a screen. I downloaded a book for my 2 year old over the weekend and she loved it.”
Maria, author of Thrifty Ways and Ideas

“I easily downloaded 3 stories, and in a matter of minutes, my kids were hearing the first story play on the Windows Media Player and were jumping up and down, asking me what it was. They loved the stories and watched all 3 of them. I finally got a few minutes to do some paperwork. Yeah!”
Donna, author of The Frugal Mom
The best part is that pretty much any MobiStory can be viewed by children of any age 2 – 8, as the kids don’t have to be of reading age to enjoy the stories with sound effects and music. They’re starting to recognize the words that appear on the page as they’re being read to. There’s nothing like edutainment! But, shhh! Don’t tell the kids!
MobiStories downloadable online digital picture books are the very best of their kind. You can view our high quality stories on your HD televisions, computer, iPhone, iPod or Zune to name a few. Imagine! The kids with half a dozen stories they love to watch and listen to over and over, and now you can take them anywhere to view at any time!
