The Digital Book
Read along with Hanseby
Meet the book that reads with you! Press play and a friendly storyteller reads The Magic Sword aloud while every single word lights up on the page. Your child follows along, hears how each word sounds and, before long, starts reading the words all by themselves.
And there is more: Milo, Issey and Max need your help. When a question pops up, your child taps Yes or No and decides what happens next. It is not just a story they read. They get to be in it!

Bilingual edition coming soon
Soon you will be able to switch between two languages on the very same page: hear a sentence in Norwegian, then in English, and compare. A lovely way for bilingual families and young language learners to grow two languages at once.
