What’s It About?
LAZ LEVEL A LIBRARY includes 12 leveled stories for preschool and kindergarten. Each story includes "word help," which allows kids to tap underlined words to get a definition. At the end of each book are critical-thinking questions that challenge kids to understand cause and effect, analyzing information, and fact or opinion.
Is It Any Good?
LAZ Level A Library has some good features but is essentially outdated. The app lacks options or settings, and the navigation can be frustrating. The biggest advantage is that there are multiple books in one place, and they're all at about the same reading level. However, for the price tag, you should explore other options that will be more likely to get your kid excited about reading.
Talk to Your Kids About ...
Families can talk about each story before or after kids answer questions such as, what is the basic plot? How were the characters feeling? What is one question you still have about the story?
Invite your kid to draw a picture that tells one of the stories or make a comic book based on the story.

Did we miss something on diversity?
Research shows a connection between kids' healthy self-esteem and positive portrayals in media. That's why we've added a new "Diverse Representations" section to our reviews that will be rolling out on an ongoing basis. You can help us help kids by suggesting a diversity update.
