Another Cool Story Book Site (with audio)!


I've posted a couple of these before, but just found a new one to add to the mix. Storynory, doesn't have live animation (with the exception of a handful of videos), but does offer printed text along with a lively narrator to read a variety of short stories to your emerging reader. The narrator has a beautiful English accent... just in case that makes a difference! lol

My kids love story time and while I totally believe it's better for mom or dad to read to them rather than an anonymous narrator, sometimes mommy's hands are busy with dinner prep or laundry... so Storynory is a welcome friend in our household! I also think this could be a fun way to occupy younger children while mom is busy with lessons for the older kids. It can be a real challenge keeping your early elementary kids occupied sometimes!

I really need to update my recommended links list in the left sidebar titled "links2learnby" and one of these days I will! I intended to long ago, but you know how that goes! When I get to it, I'll be sure to offer all the great story sites I've found so you'll not have to search so hard for them all!

Hope everyone is having a wonderful semester!

Hi, I love all the interesting links that you post.
If you find any online stories in Chinese or Spanish can you post it?
