What is a read-aloud book?

A read-aloud book is a book written to be read out loud to an audience, rather than silently by an individual. These books are designed to sound engaging when spoken and our book features:

• Expressive language that flows naturally when read aloud.
• Rhythm, rhyme, or repetition that makes listening enjoyable.
• Interesting dialogue and memorable characters.
• Illustrations (for children’s books) that support the story as it’s read..

Read-aloud books are popular for:

• Parents reading to children at bedtime.
• Teachers reading to a classroom.
• Libraries during storytime.
• Families enjoying books together.
