Tales2Go gives teachers and parents instant and unlimited access to over a thousand name-brand audio stories from leading publishers and storytellers in two convenient plans: monthly recurring, or save and buy a year in advance. Teachers know that listening to audio stories is an excellent pathway to becoming a skilled reader, since listening to stories exposes kids to vocabulary, builds critical listening and comprehension skills and generally excites kids about literature.  For these reasons and others, Teachers use audio books in the classroom.

Yes, you can use Tales2Go on an iPod Touch and iPad with a WiFi connection, or with a carrier signal on an iPad.  You can also begin listening to a story in WiFi and then take it with you - beyond a signal area - if you allow the story or chapter to 'cache' on the device (i.e. the blue buffering indicator will tell you when a story has been cached on the device - normally seconds or up to a minute depending on the strength of your signal and/or the length of the story or chapter).  In the future, we expect to introduce enhanced caching to allow users to take multiple stories beyond a signal area.

1. Install Tales2Go to your iPhone, iPad or iPod through the  App Store. When you select the Tales2Go icon on the  home screen you will be directed to a list of story navigation choices:

• Publisher
• Age
• Grade
• Genre
• Most listened to
• Title

After making a few decisions about the kind of story you and your kid(s) would like to listen to, a list of stories will be generated based on your criteria.

• The story will play through your Apple iOS device when you click on the story of your choice.
• Add a story to your Favorites by selecting the star icon directly above the volume bar in the player.
• Access your Favorites by selecting the starred Favorites icon in the navigation bar at the bottom of the story list.
• When you are done listening to a story, the player automatically plays the next story on the list.
• If you want to go back to the list of stories, press "Back" in the upper left  corner of the screen while a story is playing or when you are finished listening.

There are several ways to customize your story lists:

1. Just listen! Tales2Go takes your listening preferences and patterns into account when you listen and customizes your story lists accordingly without any work on your part.
2. Use the thumbs-down or thumbs-up icons in the player. Using these icons while a story is playing allows Tales2Go to learn your preferences and arrange the stories in your story lists accordingly.
