What's in every story

  • Your child is the hero, with Tiko the turtle as their best friend.
  • Fusha with full tashkeel, plus the same story in Khaleeji, the way Gulf families talk at home.
  • Read aloud with every word lighting up, plus printable PDFs.
  • A real treasure from your family's country in every story, never the same one twice.

A little piece of home in every story

Boy or girl
Is the Gulf Arabic natural, or translated?

Each story is written directly in Gulf Arabic, not translated from English. Fusha with full tashkeel, plus the same story in Khaleeji, the way Gulf families talk at home.

Fusha or dialect?

Both. Fusha with tashkeel builds reading for school; your dialect keeps them talking with family. Same pictures, one tap to switch.

How much is it?

The first story is free. Then the Bedtime Club is $9.99 a month or $79 a year for 4 new stories a month.

Is it safe?

First name only, no photos. Every request is screened before anything is made, and every story is gentle, with a calm bedtime ending.
