drawtale
A picture book that draws itself.
Twenty hand-drawn stories that come alive as you read together.
How reading works
Draw → Read → Touch.
Every page is a small show, and you set the pace.
- 01
It draws itself
Each page starts as blank paper. Outlines, pencil hatching and shading arrive in front of you, then the words appear.
- 02
Read to me
A recorded voice reads the page aloud and each word lights up as it is spoken. Or switch it off and read it yourselves.
- 03
Touch the picture
Once a page is drawn, the picture is touchable. Tap the moon, the frog or the leaves, and they react.
After the story
Questions, colors, stickers.
A finished book opens a few more things to do.
Picture quizzes
A few picture questions after each story, read aloud, with stars to collect.
Coloring corner
Pictures from the stories to color in, with a cup of pencils and a magic pencil.
Sticker album
Stickers earned by reading and playing, kept together in one album.
The library
Twenty stories on one shelf.
Bedtime, adventure, nature, friendship, feelings, magic and learning.
Up to five readers
Each reader has a profile with their own progress, finished books and sticker album.
Library wallpapers
Pick a wall for the library. Finishing books opens more of them.
Reading settings
Text size, reading speed, turning pages by itself and following the words.
A calm sound layer
Soft music, page and pencil sounds, and background sounds like rain and night.
