1. In South Africa, that means giving 600 million free books to children who could never afford to buy them.
2. Children in South Africa need more books, but they cost too much purchased from publishers.
3. The books are sometimes translated into other languages too such as French! - Download and Read your favourite stories on the go!
4. After that, anyone can get print runs sponsored and put finished books into the hands of children.
5. Download over 200 free storybooks for children in many different languages!
6. Book Dash gathers volunteer creative professionals to create new, African storybooks that anyone can freely translate and distribute.
7. The cheapest books have no publisher – then the only cost is printing.
8. We believe every child should own a hundred books by the age of five.
9. So our participants do the work of publishers in a single day.
10. Every day we lose, more children grow up unable to read and write well, and to enjoy the worlds that books open up.
1. A reading age filter would be welcome, my school uses colours which would work equally well.I just installed this app as i have many other apps some what like this one, because i am looking for "FREE" online story books that "I CAN READ" to my children.
2. I just wish there was a way to filter or search for the right books based on age/grade... would be useful for kids who are learning or can already read by themselves.Brilliant E-Book App for Younger Children.
3. If you want to read more diverse books then make an free app that offer uunlimted reading or shut up.
4. The creators and contributors behind Book Dash are incredible to give their time and skills to make free books available to all children, everywhere.
5. And I have to say that I am so happy and excited to have come across this app! All the other apps i tried before this one either claimbed to be free but weren't, or doesn't allow me or my children to be able to read them on our own if we want.
6. You can also just pay the money if want some diverse books.This app has the nicest story books with drawings that are vibrant and expressive.
