### 4/5 — I love it

*2026-06-09*

It’s amazing all the books are so interesting i could read all the books all day im so happy that you made kidly thank you

### 2/5 — História de dormir muito agitadas

*2026-02-20*

A maioria das histórias 'para dormir' falham em seu propósito básico: elas não induzem ao sono. Para serem eficazes, a narrativa precisa ser lenta, pausada e quase monótona. O conteúdo atual é acelerado demais e mantém a criança alerta. Na ausência de um controle de velocidade nativo, essas histórias acabam sendo contraproducentes para a rotina noturna

### 3/5 — Glitching app

*2025-10-08, version 2.0.8*

We paid for the premium version. The app is not working for a while. Once the first interface is loaded and when the child is trying to choose and open a story, a blank page will appear and nothing else will happen. This is frustrating because we paid for the app and we want to read the stories. Please try to see and fix. I’ve tried on multiple devices: my phone, my kids tablet etc … same issues

### 4/5 — غثشصقبىنبل

### 5/5 — Neurodivergent Approved

*2025-01-24*

I teach autistic students within my virtual micro school and my students absolutely love this app! My students are always exploring other languages, and this app satisfies their curiosity, while challenging their brain with new information. I also have happy parents, because they noticed an increase in their child’s leisure reading time at home! I highly recommend this app to parents and educators!

**Developer response:** We are truly delighted to hear that your students enjoy exploring different languages and that their reading habits have improved. It’s an honor to make learning more engaging and accessible.💜 We will continue to support your students on their learning journey!

Thanks to dedicated educators like you, we can help every child reach their full potential. Thank you for your support 🙌📚✨
