Description
Free illustrated audiobooks for children, narrated in six languages — with no ads, no subscription, and no account needed.
Press play and the story reads itself aloud while the words light up, one sentence at a time. Children who are still learning to read can follow along; children who can't read yet can simply listen and look at the pictures.
WHAT'S INSIDE
• Classic tales — Cinderella, Alice in Wonderland, Robin Hood, Treasure Island, The Jungle Book and more
• Every story narrated in English, Arabic, French, German, Spanish and Russian
• Read-along highlighting that follows the voice
• Comprehension quizzes for the stories that have them
• Reading fonts and text sizes for children who find reading harder
• Three reading modes, including a full-screen picture view
EVERY ONE OF THESE WAS MADE BY HAND
There was no AI when these books were made. Each story was written by a person and drawn by a person, page by page. Each one was translated by someone who actually speaks the language, and read aloud by a real voice. Every sentence was matched to its own moment in the recording by hand, one at a time, because in 2016 nothing existed that could do it for us.
That is why there are so few stories here — and why we are keeping them exactly as they are.
SAFE FOR CHILDREN
No advertising. Nothing to buy. No personal information sold to anyone. Anything meant for a grown-up sits behind a parental gate.
THANK YOU
If you were one of the families who found us back then — thank you. You believed in this when it was a handful of stories and a lot of late nights.
Everything we learned making them has gone into a new generation of story apps at thewonderbooks.com: twelve libraries, from fairy tales to history to inventions. The same care, at a speed two hands could never reach.
