Your voice
moves the
adventure.
Read aloud with OwlReader and watch
the words come to life.
For young readers in Ontario
Fun first. Real reading underneath.
OwlReader is an interactive storybook. Your child reads each sentence out loud, and the owl acts it out: walking to the tree, picking up the apple, opening the treasure chest. Their own reading makes the story happen.
The story is the reward.
No points to chase and no timers. Every sentence your child reads moves the owl one step further, and the treasure only opens when they reach the end. Children play it again because they want to, then try it in their other language.
Ontario curriculum
Aligned with what they learn at school.
Every story practises expectations from the Ontario curriculum for its grade, in English and in French Immersion.
See the expectations
English Language, Grade 1
French Immersion, Grade 1
The stories start with Grade 1, and more grades are on the way. Codes link to the Ontario Ministry of Education. OwlReader is independent and not endorsed by the Ministry.
They read first. Help is one tap away.
OwlReader waits for your child to try. If they get stuck, it reads the sentence to them, says it slowly, or breaks it into little parts. Mistakes never stop the story; they just get another go.
- Listen to the sentence
- Hear it slowly
- Say it in little parts
English, French and more
French Immersion help, even if you don’t speak French.
Every story comes in English and French, with recorded narration in both. Your child can hear any French sentence before they read it, so they can practise at home without you needing to know the words. More languages are on the way.
