Verdict

Highlights Storybooks from Bamboo by Bamboo Learning, Inc is a thoroughly interactive skill with expertly narrated stories. The reading selections which fall into three levels of difficulty are designed specifically for children of ages 4-10. The use of a friendly narrator lends an endearing quality as well as bring to light their unique approach to make learning fun and engaging. Backed by the motto to help children succeed in school, the Highlights Storybooks skill aims to capture the attention of little ones by exhilarating them with the addition of ding sound effects and applause for the right answer. If by chance, a child happens to give some random word instead of the answer, do not feel discouraged as the skill has been designed to repeat the question in such an event. All the more, what’s commendable is that if ever your child provides the wrong answer, the skill will rerun the entire story. 

Highlights Storybooks,the voiced storytelling seems modeled on the devoted intent to boost kid’s reading and listening comprehension. The stories are not only entertaining but provide a multi-sensory experience to the user. The wide range of stories accessible via the app are child-friendly and animated with a blend of emotions to capture the interest of the little ones and foster in them reading skills as well as broaden their vocabulary. Yet, there are a few downsides too. In certain circumstances, there is a probability that the correct answer could be stated as wrong.

Nevertheless, being utterly fun and educative in nature, the VOGO Voice team is inspired to score this skill with a 4.5 out of 5 stars based on our review criteria.
