An on-the-go library of quality books and video field trips for children ages 3 to 9.

Hosted by LeVar Burton, this unlimited reading subscription service offers a trusted library of books customized to your child’s interests, plus exciting video field trips to visit fascinating people and places. New books and videos are added EVERY week. The Reading Rainbow App is a completely re-imagined and interactive experience reminiscent of the original TV series.

Children travel to five themed islands, such as Animal Kingdom, Awesome People and Genius Academy, discovering quality fiction and non-fiction books from numerous acclaimed publishers. Each book comes alive with audio storytelling by celebrity actors, including spoken word Grammy winner Burton himself, and features light animations and activities to enhance the story.

Up to five children in a family can each have their own customized reading experience at no additional cost. This includes a personalized digital backpack, reading list, and individualized tracking so the parent can see books selected and minutes read for each of their children.

The app is free to try, and a subscription service is available for $9.99 a month or a discounted price of $29.99 for six months (only $4.99 per month).
