Multimedia picture books enthrall children.
A New Generation of English Learning Apps Brought to You by Multiple Readings
The "story" is an educational and engaging element. In learning English as a second language, reading to children facilitates an effective learning process that not only enhances comprehension but also provides additional learning benefits. Children can learn vocabulary and grammar in a natural environment. Therefore, we believe that reading aloud and multiple readings play an important role for all children in educational settings and in their future lives.

Using the power of "monogatari" and our unique digital technology, these materials support students in closing the gap in academic ability. This lowers the hurdles to learning while supporting a variety of learning styles.
It is a fun and innovative way to learn reading comprehension, vocabulary and grammar in a natural way.
The library has some of the greatest works of world literature. There are also unique contemporary stories from world-renowned publishers and texts to aid language acquisition. We also help children develop imagination, critical thinking, social mores, as well as 21st century skills.

No more time spent on complicated paperwork, tests, or reports. Designed by teachers for teachers, the Teacher Dashboard makes it easy to track student participation.
It is possible to track reading habits, task completion, level progress, and language skill development.
Future Development
The current "BOOKR CLASS" is designed to be taught by English teachers, and the teacher's dashboard is written in English. We are currently considering the possibility of partially translating the teacher's dashboard into Japanese, which we believe will make it even more widely usable.

Adrian Martinez, Director of Education Division, eBrand Labs Inc. comments
We have been providing excellent English and programming digital educational materials from Japan and other countries, and one thing we had hoped to someday realize was English multilingual reading materials for children. We are pleased to announce that we have come across "BOOKR CLASS" and have decided to make it a reality. After nearly half a year of distributorship agreement, we were once again convinced of its effectiveness through its use in our online school "Universal Kids Camp". With confidence, we would like to recommend it to kindergarten and school teachers, and at the same time, we hope that parents who are considering English education for their children will take this opportunity to start English education at an early age.
