“With such a digital world being prominent in our children’s lives, it is sometimes difficult to have them stop a minute to read a book. My husband and I have had story time before bed with our little ones since they were born. However, I have noticed that my little guy enjoys the computer and technology, so MobiStories seems like the perfect solution to this dilemma.”
Brittany, author of Slick and Savvy

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!
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. And as long as they’re watching, 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!

“These board books feature creative texts and brightly colored images. The words, while spare, have been carefully chosen to create a level of anticipation and excitement for even the youngest of listeners. The primary-color illustrations are bold and visual, and sure to help hold youngsters’ interest in the short, simple stories. ‘These’ titles are excellent for lap-sit programs or one-on-one sharing.”
