“The goal of MobiStories is ‘to improve reading in an entertaining and accessible format to improve literacy.’ In a day and age where everything is digital, why not make reading interactive?”
Accidental Mommies, of What’s That Smell?
Did you know that reading aloud to children helps stimulate brain development, yet only 50% of infants and toddlers are routinely read to by their parents? (Carnegie Corporation) The great thing about MobiStories online digital children’s picture books is that they’re there for you when you’re unable to read to the kids yourself!
MobiStories are the future of children’s digital picture books today! Add a few to your iPhone or iPod and take them with you to the airport, doctor’s office or on a car trip. You’ll be amazed at how transfixed they become, and it’s good for them!

“I think we have to have fun if we’re going to engage kids, but once they’re engaged….this (MobiStories) was reading, this was listening, this is readiness. It’s perfect, too, because it’s one on one and when we think of individualizing, that’s what this does. It’s a personal individualizer. It engages kids in the reading process. It’s good for the learning strategies for reading. I think it’s great.”
Laura M. Viel, professor of elementary education and gifted education teacher

(Carnegie Corporation) The great thing about MobiStories online digital children’s picture books is that they’re there for you when you’re unable to read to the kids yourself!
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.
Enjoy listening to your digital picture books or simply turn the sound off and read along with the easy to follow text.

“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!”
