Comments
This app has three heartwarming stories about solidarity, all based on real events. The stories are simple and short, being accessible even for the younger. There are three ways of reading: having an automated voice read to you, reading on your own, or recording your reading, which is saved and can be listened to later. The latter is the most interesting feature on this app because it provides parents/carers the opportunity to have the stories read to younger children with a familiar voice. Beginner readers can record their readings and follow their development. Younger children can use this feature to create and record their own stories based on the beautiful illustrations by the Chinese artist Oamul Lu. The stories are interactive and provide prompts and activities to engage the children in ways that are meaningful to their experience of the story.
Other notable themes and features of the app include Animals, Friendship, Home, Multilingual, Social & Emotional Development, Stories.
