With this easy to use app, learning to read in English is an enjoyable experience. Developed by linguistic experts, children learn to read in their own time and at their own pace. With Read, children can: • Hear the word spoken correctly. • See the correct spelling. • Practise saying the letter, word, and sentence. With 8 levels and 32 books, children can progress at their own pace, starting from simple words, moving on to full sentences, and finally, reading a full story. The first three books on every shelf are read-to-me stories. The stories are read aloud while the child follows along. The fourth book allows the child to practice reading, using the vocabulary from the stories just read.
