Key Features of Wonderbooks:

• Built-in audio player with pre-loaded audiobook
• Three modes: Read-Along, Learning, and Sing-Along
• Easy-to-use controls for independent reading
• Durable and child-friendly design

“We are thrilled to bring Wonderbooks to our community,” said Heather Rhoads, Community Relations Coordinator. “These innovative books provide an accessible and engaging way for children to develop their reading skills. The combination of reading and listening helps to reinforce learning and makes reading a fun and enjoyable activity.”

Wonderbooks offer Three Distinct modes:

• Read-Along Mode: Children can listen to the story while following along in the book, enhancing reading comprehension and fluency.
• Learning Mode: This mode focuses on educational content, helping children learn new words and concepts.
• Sing-Along Mode: Some Wonderbooks are equipped with sing-along mode so children can enjoy singing along to songs related to the book’s theme, making learning fun and interactive.
