For parents and grown-ups
One story.
Three ways
to share it.
Look, Listen and Read is a home for original children's books you can read together, listen to at bedtime and watch as illustrated stories. Each book is made to work in all three ways, so a story can follow your family from the couch to the car to lights-out.

The planned experience
Read, Listen, Watch. Same book.
Turn the pages together.
Illustrated pages on screen for a lap-and-sofa moment. You set the pace, pause to point at pictures and talk about what might happen next.
What it is good for
Small, warm moments, more often.
- 01
A shared ritual
The same story can be read at breakfast and heard again at bedtime. Familiar stories give families something to come back to and talk about.
- 02
Room to choose
Some days call for a lap and a page, some for headphones, some for pictures in motion. You pick what fits the moment.
- 03
Ages kept honest
Each book has one original age group: Ages 0–2, 3–5, 5–7 or 7–10. We do not quietly stretch a book across groups it was not made for.
- 04
Grown-ups stay in charge
Accounts, plans and rewards live with you. You open the family library; children do not need a separate login. Free games are available without an account.
Our first collection
The Adventures of Deuce and Friends
Meet Deuce and explore books by age and topic. Membership opens ready formats; books still in review stay on the shelf.
Plans, in plain words
Start free. Decide later.
Family stars
Finish a book, earn a star.
5 stars
Can be spent on 20% off one eligible digital-book purchase. Not for subscriptions, and discounts do not stack.
An illustration of the rules only. A grown-up approves every spend on the membership page.
An honest answer
Why pay when free stories exist?
Free, always
Classic public-domain and openly licensed books in our Free Library stay free with no account and no paywall. They are not what a paid plan sells.
What a paid plan is for
Our own original stories planned as one connected book to read, listen to and watch, a curated shelf with one honest age group per book, and grown-up tools like family stars and rewards.
Compared with YouTube and other services
Many free videos and apps are lovely, and you may prefer them. The difference here is coordination and curation: matching formats of the same book, no open chat, and grown-ups managing accounts and spending.
Where things stand today
The original books are still being prepared and are not published yet. Paid launch is paused, and nobody is charged until originals are ready.
Free right now
Ready today, no account needed.
How it works for your family
- Grown-up accounts
- Accounts are for grown-ups and require email verification. Children use the family library without a separate child login.
- No open chat
- There is no public chat or messaging between users.
- Billing and rewards
- Purchases and rewards require a verified grown-up account, with confirmation before spending stars.
- What we keep
- Your account, finished-book progress for stars, rewards and any message you send us. Signing up is not a newsletter subscription.
Questions grown-ups ask
Straight answers.
You do not have to. Free Library classics stay free. A paid plan, once launched, is for our coordinated original read, listen and watch formats, curation and grown-up features. Originals are not released yet and paid plans are paused.
Yes. A free grown-up account is available now, and games, Puzzle World and Calm Corner are free without signing in. Original books appear once they are finished and approved.
Paid plans are paused until the first originals are released. We have not set a public date, and we will not charge anyone before then.
Once launched, paid plans renew monthly. You can manage or cancel them any time through the billing portal on the membership page.
No. Accounts are for grown-ups. Stars are shared across the whole family rather than tracked per child.
Creating an account is not a newsletter signup. We do not add you to a mailing list.
Use the contact page. Messages are saved with a reference number, and email delivery to our team's inbox is tracked.
Save a seat on the story sofa.
