I love Sylvan Dell Publishing’s Fun eReader Picture Books App! The eBooks are a great way to introduce your children to nature, math, and science in a fun and entertaining way. I have used it at home with my own children and in my classroom, and both my children and my students loved it!
The eBooks stream from the cloud or can be downloaded to your iPad for traveling. There are over 90 books available, and best of all, there is a Spanish language option! There are also a variety of ways for reading the book too. It is possible to choose either the Read-to-Me, Read-to-Myself, or AutoPlay option. My kids love that they can listen to the stories and flip through the pages of the iPad stories all on their own.
The books are filled with beautiful illustrations and cover science and math subjects in a way that is interesting and fun to learn. At the back of each book, there are fun educational sections that enable parents and teachers to help further explore the facts and information covered in the book. The “For Creative Minds” section presents amazing facts about strange animals, faraway places, earth, space, science, and even math concepts. I especially love that the app provides parents and teachers with teaching activity guides. These guides contain pre-reading and post reading questions, activities such as word searches, vocabulary puzzles, and even map activities to help further learning. The app even has on-line quizzes that can test for reading comprehension.
I love this app! My children are absolutely thrilled with the books and love learning about different animals, the ocean, and outer space. I love that through reading stories, they are exploring science and math concepts. I have also used this app in my Spanish classes, and the students were very enthusiastic to learn and read with this fun app.
The Sylvan Dell Publishing’s eReader is a great way to make learning fun! The beautifully illustrated eBooks will captivate, entertain, and educate your child, and best of all, the stories can be read in Spanish too!

I am a teacher and love that they have quizzes for each book. Loved the book selection, too.

This app is great! I would love to get this app to use with my Kindergarten students and my own children!

Can’t wait to try it out!
I love the quizzes for the books.
I already subscribe.
This app is awesome! Always looking for libros en español available on the iPad!
I really enjoy the teaching activities that I can do at home for my son. It’s also incredible the list of books they have that you can listen to in Spanish.
I love that there are so many books available in Spanish–of beautiful quality and high-interest, engaging non-fiction texts. I had trouble accessing the Spanish samples. Although the titles showed Spanish, while I was in “test drive” mode, when I clicked on a title, it would show the English book in the presentation. From my past experience, when I’ve seen the Spanish “book of the month” titles, they have been very good–high-engagement age-developmentally appropriate while and still -rigorous academic language to expose kids to different vocabulary and fun interesting topics.
I subscribe.
I like the quizzes
