the story-telling resource for literacy and language
News: It's book Week, so we've opened up the whole site for the whole week! Just click on the red login button, above right, and enter 'book' and 'week12' as your username and password.
Our online library of enchanting online stories offers teachers and parents the perfect way to help children become 
passionate about languages. The best way to find out how they work is by trying them out. That's what our free stories are for.
Our method
The uniqueness of our stories lies in the progression embedded into the stories, allowing your children to learn and grow in confidence. The best place to start with a new language is with the words that get used again and again in everyday speech. That's what our stories do. These high frequency words which form up to 50% of speech, help children to sentence build and are great for improving general literacy.
Our languages include English (ESL, TEFL), French, Spanish, German and Mandarin
