How it works
1Add your characters
Describe your child, a grandparent or the family pet in a few words.
2Get an original story
A calm, multi-chapter adventure written only for your family, in English first.
3Switch to Dutch
Pick Dutch on the story page. Every chapter is translated and read aloud, and you can flip back to English any time.
Bilingual bedtime, the easy way
Many families read the first chapter in English and the rest in Dutch, or replay a favourite in Dutch once the story is familiar. Names and the plot stay the same in both languages, so children follow along even while the new words are still settling in.
Questions
Are the stories written in Dutch, or translated?＋
Each story is written in English first, then the storyteller translates every chapter into Dutch, keeping names, the plot and the gentle tone. You can switch between English and Dutch on the story page at any time, which makes it easy to read bilingually.
How are Dutch stories read aloud?＋
By your device's built-in Dutch voice. Most phones and tablets include one; if yours doesn't, you can add it in your device's language settings, or read the translation aloud yourself.
