Educator access
For Educators
Storytime Guru is a companion app for the grown-ups who read with young children. It is not a digital reader: the physical children's book stays the book, you stay the guide, and the app gives you theme-based browsing, quick book identification, and caregiver-facing question scripts that turn a bedtime story into a real conversation.
Children's books carry real lessons about identity, courage, forgiveness, and belonging, and getting to that meaning takes the right questions along the way. Carefully crafted questions are the building blocks of comprehension, and Storytime Guru is your guide to asking them, whether you teach or read at home.
The way you use it grows with the child. At first a grown-up reads aloud and asks three or four questions; later the child reads the book to a grown-up or a peer and leads the conversation.
If you are an educator, the code below unlocks the full app so you can explore all of it.
