Explore a magical world that ignites children’s love of reading and books!
From the charity behind the award-winning Teach Your Monster to Read comes a brand new game that gets kids reading for fun! Take your monster to explore a magical village full of fascinating facts and spellbinding stories.
The latest educational game from Teach Your Monster, ‘Reading for Fun’ is designed with experts from Roehampton University to get kids reading more, boost their confidence and inspire a lifelong love of reading.
Make your own monster with hundreds of items, make friends with colourful characters and collect over 70 brilliant free ebooks (from Usborne, Okido, Otter-Barry and more) to add to your monster’s bookshelf.
There are hours and hours of fun, whilst you read along the way.
Every interaction involves reading, from following signposts and checking the village noticeboard to reading aloud with librarian Goldspear. The books you discover will help you bake delicious cakes, make the villagers laugh and even find treasure!
It’s up to you to choose what to explore and when. But hurry, the villagers need your help. Your monster must use all its wisdom, skills and bravery to stop the book-eating goblin causing chaos in the village and eating all the books!
The game encourages children of all ages to read for pleasure, helping them build empathy by putting themselves in different characters’ shoes. The game is perfect to play at home and school, alongside Teach Your Monster to Read 1,2,3 or on its own.
