For the grown-ups who read with young children
Children's books are deeper than they look.
Turn children's books into real conversations.
Identity, courage, forgiveness, belonging: the ideas in a children's book are as substantial as anything on a high school reading list, only at a lower reading level. Storytime Guru helps you see that depth and talk it through with your child.
How it works

What's inside
A library built for reading together.
- Every book in the library
- The full Reading Guide for every book
- Read/Unread tracking across the whole library
- New books added throughout the year
Six books are free for everyone. A subscription opens the rest of the library.
Made for the grown-up, not the child
The book stays the book. You stay the guide.
Storytime Guru is not a digital reader. The physical children's book stays in the room, whether you read it to your child or your child is starting to read it to you; the app sits beside the two of you, never between you.
There are no accounts and no ads, nothing about your child is collected, and what you do in the app stays on your device.

Storytime Guru is available for iPhone and Android.
