Read with Bear

Read with Bear is a calm, no-subscription picture-book library for ages 4-8. Start with two free books, choose a third as a welcome gift, then add books one at a time or unlock the whole library for life. Every book is hand-illustrated, professionally narrated, and built to grow with your reader. Made by a dad for his daughter. THREE READING LEVELS Every page has Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 text. The story stays familiar while the language grows from simple early-reader sentences to richer vocabulary for confident readers. REAL NARRATION Each book is professionally narrated. Kids can listen to the story, tap any word to hear it again, and tap supported vocabulary words to hear their meanings. Words highlight as they are spoken to help early readers follow along. PAINT MODE Every page becomes a coloring book. Tap a brush, tap a region, and fill the artwork with color. It is a quiet creative mode for screen time that feels more like a picture book than a cartoon. TAP TO LEARN Every page includes tappable objects with short facts about animals, food, places, history, science, and the world inside the story. NO SUBSCRIPTIONS Two books are free on install, plus one free welcome book you choose. Additional books are $2.99 each, or families can unlock Lifetime Access for $39.99, including current and future books with Family Sharing support.
