Reading with this interactive app is rewarding, and we hope that the Challenge certificates and prizes will encourage children to read more.

If your child completes the first Challenge milestone before the challenge ends they’ll receive the first Challenge certificate and can continue reading to achieve the hall of fame challenge.

  • Read aloud for at least 60 minutes,
  • Complete at least 15 books and
  • Achieve at least 30 stars
