from Pratham Books is a digital platform that provides easy-to-use tools to
create and translate stories for children. It features thousands of stories in
many languages such as Tagalog, Samoan, Japanese, and other languages across
the world. This website allows parents, educators, writers, translators, and illustrators
to “weave” quality stories for young readers. Every story created by users are
free to download and does not require internet connectivity to read once stored
in any digital device.

All tools needed for translating and formatting stories are free. The purpose
of this website is to give freedom of creation by collaborating with other
authors and grow an extensive archive of quality stories for young children to
enjoy for years.
The homepage features new and trending stories that
are read by millions of people daily. The tabs include navigations to trending
themes and languages. The books are also organized by reading levels and
includes digital read alongs and videos. In the translate tab, users are able
to explore books that are published in different languages. In the creation
tab, a user will be prompted to create an account and start drafting stories on
his or her own!
StoryWeaver is an effective literacy website that will
be most useful for students who speak English as a second language. Teachers
can also use this website to create content for languages that have yet to be
added on the website. StoryWeaver continues to promote the love of reading by
giving free access to its large library and tools.
