- Release Date: 1996-01-01
- Genre: Early Reading for Kids
Every child loves story time! Books from the Start to Read! series, in read-along format, narrate and present amusing stories with memorable messages that help children learn to read.
It’s Magic is about a magician whose rabbit assistant plays a trick or two on him. Intended for young readers with some experience at Levels 1 and 2, this Level 3 storybook from the Start to Read! series, features an amusing story line, as it introduces 45-150 new words. In order to read successfully, children need to master a basic vocabulary of sight words and learn to sound out words.
This read-along storybook app makes it extra fun. It’s a super solution to the “Read me a story!” refrain. Easy-to-use settings allow children to control their app experience. If they turn on “Read to Me” mode, they can follow along with the narrator as each word onscreen is highlighted. With it off, they can try reading the story on their own. In both modes, if they get stuck, they can touch any word, any time and hear its pronunciation. Kids can also choose auto-page turning and background music on or off.
