Each day since September, I put Tales2Go on, find a new story in the "Ages 5+" or "Storytellers" categories or continue a story that I saved in "Favorites." The students enjoy the variety and I enjoy not having to run out to the public library to borrow audiobooks." Kindergarten Teacher and Mom- "Very Useful. I am a teacher and use this with my 4th Grade students. They love the variety of stories." jonathanwylie- "A Mom Must-Have! My two boys (ages 7 and 9) love this app! We listen in the car as we travel, during dinner and before bed. Both the boys and I like the vast variety of stories to choose from and the fact it is so user-friendly" CuteBoyMom- Tales2Go is a fantastic resource for Homeschool families. We love listening eveywhere, kitchen table, car and even in bed before bedtime. Love tales2go." R. Nichol- "LOVE this app! As a special education teacher I really appreciate the ability to access audio books/stories for students. As a person I really love the flexibility to listen to books while I work, drive, and relax. This is a fantastic app." Jeubank- "Great app! My whole family and I listened to Encylopedia Brown in the car today (what a blast from the past) and it worked perfectly.
