Bookinou
In the connected e-reader market, Bookinou stands out from the competition thanks to its innovative concept: the story box does not replace a book, but to support his reading, from the age of two. Recognized by National Education for its usefulness in learning to read, the device allows you to transform any work into an audio book, read by a loved one. All you have to do is record the story on the dedicated mobile application, stick an NFC sticker on the book, and that’s it. Whenever he wants, the child can bring the book closer to his e-reader to go on an adventure. Single purchases and a subscription are also offered as options.

Believed
Another story box to dream differently. The market definitely has some great experiences in stock for the youngest, with the video projector from Tikino. Especially designed for ages 3-10the device allows you to transform a bedroom or living room into a real immersive show. With its soft light and animated content, it will establish itself as a perfect alternative to screens. Its only fault at present is that it only works on mains. However, a battery may soon be purchased as an option.

- €169.99 for the projector and 15 contents included
- Additional content between €2.99 and €9.99
Flam, le balladeur Luinii
After listening to the adventures of Gaston and Suzanne on repeat on their Lunii Story Factory, the brand launched Flam, a nomadic alternative for older children. From seven years old, little readers will be able to enjoy a new interactive experience in pocket format, with a small color screen, and texts more suited to their age. In terms of user experience, there is always the possibility of influencing the course of certain stories along the way, for immersive reading. And to facilitate the transition between the world of young people and that of older readers, the majority of Lunii stories are Flam compatible.

My Bayard Story Cube
If you are still hesitant about investing in a story box, Bayard has launched a particularly interesting entry-level collection. With Story Cubes, simply approach the object with an NFC-compatible smartphone and enjoy an audio adventure. Five references are currently available on the publisher’s official website, for a single price of €12.90, and stories suitable for 2-7 year olds. If the device is obviously the most limited (impossible for the child to enjoy its content in total autonomy), it is also the least expensive, and will undoubtedly allow a few timid people to dive head first into the world of stories told .
✅ We like: its low price, its ease of use
