What parents say

Parents like that kids can follow a set reading plan largely on their own, with click-to-hear-aloud support for tricky words and sentences. The most common complaint mirrors other subjects on the platform: some families find the reading level runs a bit easy, and it's priced for every subject together, not reading alone.
