Read it, or have it read to you

Read Storywish books one page at a time, with a picture on every page. Add narration and each word lights up as it's read aloud, so early readers can follow along.

One page at a time

Each page has its words on one side and its picture on the other. Hold a phone or tablet upright and the picture sits above the words. Turn the page with the arrows, a swipe, a tap on either side of the page, or the arrow keys on a computer.

Look up a word

When you're signed in, tap a word to see what it means, words like it, words that rhyme with it, and a picture of it.

Picture to come: a page with its words beside its picture.

Read aloud, word by word

Tap Narrate and the book is read to you. Each word lights up as it's spoken, the words scroll along with the voice, and the page turns by itself when it's done.

Picture to come: a page being read aloud, with the spoken word lit up.

Start from the cover

The cover has Start reading this story. On your own books, Add narration adds a voice to a book that was made without one.

What comes after "The end"

The last screen gathers what you might want next:

Picture to come: the end of a book, with rating, sharing and printing.
Picture to come: the idea for the next story, with Create a related story open.

The next story is one tap away

Under Up next, Storywish suggests a sequel to the book you just read. Tap Start this story to begin it with the same characters.

Or tap Create a related story for a sequel, a prequel, a remake or a remix. Each one starts a new story that knows the book you just read and brings its characters along.
