Tumblebooks Library

Tumblebooks library website employs bright colors,  interesting books of all levels, the newest technology and plenty of options for "reading" to entice learners of all ages to dive into stories for fun.  This website is one I had not used until about 6 months ago and now that I found it, we are using it at our house.  The books for school age kids give the accelerated reader levels which is helpful but more important for the younger set are the the books that read to you!

Under the story books tab are picture books for young readers.  These books are read longs, with wonderful readers who tell the story as the child watches the pictures and can follow the words.  For early readers, parents can set this up and let their child read several stories to practice reading.  But even pre-readers will love to listen to the stories and see the pictures.  These early experiences with books will enhance pre and early readers positive experiences.
