Every favorite book can hold a familiar voice.
Story Time helps parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and family friends record themselves reading real children’s books—then share those recordings with the kids who love them.
Little Blue Truck
Grandma’s reading • 6:42
Family Library
12 books with voices from the people they love.
From bookstore shelf to bedtime memory.
Story Time is designed to be simple enough for every family member to use, even if they are recording a book for the very first time.
Scan the book
Use the book’s barcode to identify the title. No stickers or setup required to get started.
Read naturally
Record yourself reading the physical book. Pause between pages just like you would in person.
Share the voice
The recording appears in your family library so kids can hear loved ones read from anywhere.
It’s not just a recording. It’s Grandma inside a favorite book.
Story Time keeps the real book at the center. The child still turns the pages, points at the pictures, and snuggles in close—the app simply brings a loved one’s voice along for the moment.
