Description:

Being read to creates a unique and enchanting experience for children, serving as a vital foundation for language acquisition. GLEN Books presents a thoughtfully curated collection of illustrated children's storybooks available in both English and Spanish. Each book features narration with synchronized text highlighting and virtual page-turning on the screen. The range includes well-known children's classics, such as adaptations of Aesop's fables and Indian folk tales, alongside original stories.

These beautifully illustrated stories can be enjoyed by children regardless of their reading abilities. The audio-synchronized text highlighting serves as an engaging entry point into reading. For beginning readers, the option to turn off narration or play audio for selected phrases allows them to practice and enhance their literacy skills.

GLEN Books serves as an effective tool for strengthening language skills at home, in informal preschool settings, or as a complement to classroom activities for Kindergarten and 1st grade students. The auto-narration feature supports parents and caregivers in enjoying storytime with their children, irrespective of their own literacy levels. Educators can leverage GLEN Books to design comprehensive reading, comprehension, and bilingual activities.
