Talking BAB Books!

Listen to Shyanne, the Blue Cow and Friends, Bill and Rosco, When I Grow Up, How About a Picnic?, and all your other favorite BAB Books stories. Play Adlibs and hear the story you've created read back to you!

By special arrangement between BAB Books and KidsVoyager, you can now enjoy listening to the entire BAB Books Web site. You and your children will now be able to experience all these wonderful children's books as Talking eBooks, with KidsVoyager - BAB Books Edition. That's the best part. The next best part is that it's free. And if you play Adlibs, you will be able to hear your own Talking eStory read back to you! Just have a look at the first page of the BAB Books featured story, Shyanne, the Blue Cow and Friends, for a preview of what you and your children will be experiencing.

When you download and install the KidsVoyager® Phonic Engine® Talking Browser, you will have free, unlimited access to "talking" BAB books. When you launch KidsVoyager, you will be asked for an account user name and password. Simply log in with the user name "BABbooks" (upper or lower case doesn't matter), and the password "reading". Click here to download now!

What's more, as a special offer to BAB Books visitors, you will -- for a limited time -- receive a 15% discount on the full version of KidsVoyager.

With KidsVoyager - BAB Books Edition, you or your child will be able to listen to everything on the BAB Books Web site:

  • Hear any paragraph, link, caption, heading, and bold, italicized, underlined or otherwise emphasized text by simply aiming the mouse.
  • Stop listening to a paragraph, link, caption, heading, and bold, italicized, underlined or otherwise emphasized text by simply aiming the mouse away from it. (Aiming/aiming away mimics the way grown-ups browse, by glancing around a web page.)
  • Hear any word by clicking on it.
  • Hear any text at all by selecting it.
  • Hear an entire Web page by clicking a button.
  • Hear any page of a BAB Books story by clicking on the "speaker" icon that appears next to it.
  • By a single mouse click, resume speaking a paragraph that may have been accidentally interrupted, at the point where it left off.

You will also be able to experiment with Phonic Engine® Spelling, which can increase the underlying fundamentals of language development (such as Phonemic Awareness), as well as reading, spelling and vocabulary; and in a way that's fun. Phonic Engine® Spelling is an innovative approach to literacy, which enables your child to learn, while at the same time, spelling words correctly; words which can then be used for successful searching.

Additionally, you'll have an opportunity to check out KidsVoyager Parental Controls, including the unique "Navigation Boundary" control, which allows browsing only within a specified perimeter surrounding the home page (setting of the home page can be locked by you). As your child browses, he or she will see an indicator of distance from the home page, and will be able to visually determine browsing limits; so no surprises.

Have fun!
