User reviews

Not working it will say its not available in my country

I live in the United States. My kid has speech problems so I am looking for app that can help him with that. Purchased this app and now that I downloaded it's telling me it available in my country.

They. Work โ€”- Perfect

Iโ€™ve used these for years with learning readers... They are fabulous. They align with the science of reading for how successful readers read.

Fun and Easy!

I love how the wrong answers teach my child and the right answers encourage him to keep going with fun sounds and animations! This app clearly teaches him how reading works!

Gentle and thorough

I like the gentle encouraging voice of the robot and the menu that lets me repeat any part of the lesson as much as I need. For my budding reader it's very helpful that any wrong answers are teaching moments (vs a "no" sound), and the right answers have reinforcing sounds and surprises.

Helps reading make sense

This is a great app for the right-brained learner who often struggles trying to learn to read by left-brained methods! Great color, pictures, humor, and movement! Very helpful!!!
