“BY FAR THE BEST READING GAME I’VE FOUND FOR MY KIDS” -NIKKI L. 

LEARNING TO READ

Using our exciting 70-page adventure story, we take young readers through an innovative learning pedagogy that is custom-tailored to build reading skills and foster lifelong reading habits. Adventure Readers and the Quest for the Magic Moonstone is a thrilling tale of two young siblings who join their companion, a rambunctious monkey in a space suit, on a quest across the galaxy to save the universe by learning how to read!

We journey across seven fantastic planets teaching your child valuable life skills such as working together to overcome obstacles, greeting new challenges with excitement, and making new friends.


Whether your child is learning on iPad or iPhone, Adventure Reader provides a fun and  engaging way to learn how to read. Children are rewarded for completing each learning activity with the next pages of the story, and can pick up the intergalactic narrative at any time.

The adventure is presented as a “motion comic,” meaning that individual comic panels come to life and the characters interact with your child thanks to the work of an extraordinary cast of voice-over performers, set against the backdrop of a fully orchestrated musical score recorded by live symphony musicians.

THE PERFECT READING PROGRAM

The Adventure Readers reading app for iPhone and reading app for iPad is perfect for any child. Our unique approach even helps overcome reading challenges for children with learning disabilities, as well as those learning English as a second language.

The best reading app for:
• ADHD
• Auditory processing disorders
• Autism
• Dyslexia
• Language delay
• Speech delay
• Word recognition

THE BEST READING GAME FOR KIDS

It previously took many months to teach your child to read or bring him/her up to grade level. With Adventure Readers, it now takes just a few hours! The results of our method are immediate, and so are the changes to your child’s self-esteem.

OUR METHOD

Words are made up of sounds, not letter names. Mixing these two before a child has learned to read can be overwhelming. Our system only uses the sound that represents the letter, allowing your child to “decode” the English language. This is one of the key ways our approach differs from other reading apps.

Our app’s curriculum was carefully created by Leslie Poznanter to teach children how to read. First your child will learn sounds, then basic reading skills, before learning more letters and sound combinations.

Our creative team has worked to make a flexible game that accommodates the needs of younger children, while also being suitable for older children. Whether you are looking for a fun way to teach reading or a way to get your child back at grade level, we have the solution!

PARENTAL PARTICIPATION

Our app was carefully designed to guide your child through the entire adventure of reading without the need for parental assistance. However, if you would like to participate, here are some ways to enrich your child’s experience:

• Allow your child to make mistakes. Our program has built-in help to direct her to the correct answer.
• Use only letter sounds (e.g., the sound “k,”  instead of “kay,” for the letter “k”) and not letter names when playing the game.
• If the app asks your child to say something and he doesn’t, encourage him to be vocal.

My kindergartener just spend an hour on here! The app is super fun and educational. I always refuse to pay for apps but I am SO happy I took the plunge on this one.

### 5/5 — He is loving it!,,

*2019-10-31, version 2.0.3*

My 4 year old, very active (did I say very!!!) Grandson LOVES this program.  The colors, the activity, the positive reinforcement.  We are spending quality time together, all while satisfying his inquisitive mind, settling him down with focus and fun.
I am not a person who usually reviews items, but I am so impressed by this one, I just had to share.  I highly recommend this fabulous program.

### 5/5 — The best app ever

My niece loves this reading app.

### 5/5 — Best reading game ever!

*2019-04-20, version 2.0.1*

This is one sensational app! I can’t imagine the thought and work that was put into it. Most reading apps I’ve purchased take a very short time to get through and I don’t see much learning going on. My son loves the graphics and characters in Adventure Readers and he’s quickly learning to put sounds together to make words, something he struggled with in the past. 
I highly recommend it to anyone who wants their child to have a successful beginning with reading. Good job Adventure Readers!
