What People Are Saying
"We downloaded the app and my child immediately read four books without stopping. She loves it!"
"This app has been a godsend for my students. Some hate conventional reading but love Wonder Stories."

Built from 4 years of research with 300+ reluctant readers, now used by 80,000+ readers
Created by Elliott Hedman (PhD, MIT Media Lab), Wonder Stories were developed using emotional sensors and eye-tracking technology at Boys & Girls Clubs and Title 1 schools. The research found that questions are the strongest engagement point in reading — so every Wonder Story is built around inquiry-based reading.
