“This is magic. I played it with my four year old and he absolutely loved it…It is a great idea.”
—Pete the Gadget guy, "Sunrise"

These educational, entertaining children's books and the accompanying animated DVD are a fun reading book and a new experience in interactive reading.

First read the book and then watch as the words and illustrations come to life with the animated DVD.

Through sound, memory and word association the young reader 4-10 years old quickly appreciates the relationship between the spoken and the written word.

The "Fun Funnel", the first in the series from DVD Storytime, has been proven to be a powerful reading aid.

A wonderful mix of the old and the new. A classic old style children's story with warm colourful illustrations combined with fun animations.

Words that move, pictures that sing and dance, a new reading experience "that brings the story to life".

What people are saying about
The Fun Funnel

"My 7 year old autistic son just loves The Fun Funnel. He likes books but when he saw the same pictures from the book on the TV he was delighted and even more so when the picture came to life. He has watched it many times now and sings and dances along with the final part of the story. Now, the first thing he has to do every morning is read the book to me (with actions and noises of course) and he is now beginning to point to the words on the page as we read.

I'm sure he thinks this has been one of the best gifts he has ever received. Thank you so much for this great idea, it's wonderful to see his pleasure in it. We are looking forward with great anticipation to your next book."

—Helen Gilmore

"I felt I should write to you to let you know my feelings toward your book/ DVD, The Fun Funnel that I recently showed to my son who is 9 years old.

Fred is not a fan of reading. He finds the whole experience overwhelming. This was the case until he saw your book. He loved the fact that the words jump up so he knows exactly where you are in the story. He commented straight away, saying how he can see clearly what the storyteller is saying (where he is up to).

His reading has improved no end, he has confidence to read unprompted now and this has happened in a really short space of time since watching The Fun Funnel. The story is happy and has a jolly soundtrack, which my daughter who is 1 loves. A real hit amongst my family.

I wish you every success, with this great concept. It certainly has helped my son and I shall endeavor to spread the word. Wishing you all the best, thank you."

"As a teacher of 19 years I was amazed when my non reader asked for the book and followed the words while watching the DVD. I believe the audio and visual presentation in combination with the associated book will greatly assist children taking their first tentative steps in reading."

—Jo Manitta, Dip.Ed, Primary school teacher
