Grandpa lives far away
He gets a link and reads the book aloud from his own sofa. The book is on his screen, so he doesn't need to hold it.
Personalised audiobook
A picture book about your own child, read aloud by grandpa, grandma, mum or dad. They record it on their own phone, and your child chooses who reads every night.
- The whole story is about your child
- Up to 6 readers, or an AI voice
- No app needed
With your book from €4.99
Grandpa reads aloud, even when he's not there
For the evenings you can't be there, or take a night off from reading aloud.
You're working tonight
Your child still hears a voice they know. Record the book once, and you read aloud every night after that.
A night off from reading
Tonight grandma reads. Your child gets a treat, and you get a breather.
How it works
Grandpa records it
You send each reader their own link, for example by WhatsApp. He reads page by page, with the text large on screen. Tripped over a word? He redoes just that page.
Your child chooses
Each reader gets a photo, so even a toddler recognises grandpa.
And listens
With the illustrations from their own book, page by page. When the story ends, it stops.
Record it yourselves or choose an AI voice
Record it yourselvesOur pick
Up to 6 readers: grandpa, grandma, mum, an aunt or a good friend. Each gets their own link and records when it suits them. You can add someone later too.
With your eBook from €5.99
Tested with readers young and old.
An AI voice
Rather not record it yourself? Choose a female or male voice that reads the whole book. Take both, and your child chooses every night.
With your eBook from €4.99
Screen time you choose
On the same tablet or phone, but without ads and without a next video. Your child sees the illustrations from their own book and hears a voice they know. In bed, or on the go in the car.
In the hardcover: a QR code
Your child scans the code with a tablet or phone and the audiobook opens. That way their voice stays with the book, for years to come. Without a hardcover, you listen in the eBook and on the Listening Shelf.
Only the people you invite can record
- Each reader gets their own link, just for their own spot.
- The QR code can only play. Anyone who borrows the book can't change anything.
- A reader can always delete their own recording.
