Tumblebooks

Tumblebooks is an online site that has a lot to offer.  The section I am most familiar with is the Storybook  section.  This section offers many books that read aloud. The stories are presented in a very professional manner.  The pictures are easily seen and the words are displayed as the story is read making is easily accessible to all learners.

This site also features; puzzles and games, non-fiction books, quizzes, lesson plans and even a playlist and a place to save your favorite books.

I have used this site before to practice retelling a story.  It is fun to listen to the story being read and then show the book again muting the sound and letting a student tell the story using the pictures for clues.  Students love to hear the stories and this site is very user friendly and easy to use.  I would recommend this site.
