FAQ

What is the Little Critter Library app?

The Little Critter Library is a digital application that offers a collection of children's stories by Mercer Mayer. It is designed to encourage literacy skills with features like highlighted narration, tappable words for vocabulary, and the ability to record your own narration. It also includes parental controls and a mini-game within each story.

How can I access the stories in the app?

You can access the stories through a subscription model. A free 1-week trial is offered with any subscription. Alternatively, you can purchase unrestricted access to all content with a single, one-time charge. Even without a subscription, one free story is available per month.

What are the key features for improving reading skills?

The app encourages literacy by using highlighted narration that follows along with the text. Children can learn new vocabulary by tapping on words and pictures, which often provide definitions or pronunciations. Parents can also record their own narration to share with their child.

Is this app suitable for young children?

Yes, the app is specifically designed for children ages 2-5. It includes parental controls to keep kids engaged within the story and a simple interface suitable for young users. The interactive elements and engaging stories are tailored for this age group.

What are the subscription options and costs?

The app offers monthly or annual subscription options, both including a free 1-week trial. You can also opt for a one-time purchase for permanent access to all content. Subscription details and management, including turning off auto-renewal, can be found in your account settings after purchase.
