Read me a book!

How many times have you heard that? Probably more than you can count. AnyBook Plus is here to help. With ease, you can now record yourself reading a book to your child or grandchild. This way, they’ll have you with them always, even when you’re not there. With this simple touch, record, playback process you can record any page of any book you already own. AnyBook Plus stores up to 60 hours of recordings.


Any voice

AnyBook Plus doesn’t use a computerised voice. It uses your voice – or your child’s – or their grandparent’s. In other words: any voice. This allows you to give the words the inflections you want. Create the characters’ voices and personalities and help them jump off the pages. Go ahead and make them laugh! After all, you know your children better than anyone.


Any books

And you know the books that your kids like. The books that help them learn. Franklin understands that, so you don’t need to buy any more books. You have freedom with AnyBook Plus, freedom to select your kid’s favourite book. Or any book from their library. Simply record any of the books they’ve already got.


Any time

AnyBook Plus is ready for your children whenever they want it. Maybe you’re travelling on business or just working late. Maybe you’re overseas serving our country or simply live far from your extended family. AnyBook Plus is not trying to take your place. But in this small, simple way, your child knows you’re thinking of them.

Using the stickers

AnyBook Sticker Pack

AnyBook Plus comes with a selection of stickers. Each sticker uses a unique code which allows you to associate different recordings with every page of your book. Don’t worry! These stickers use special glue which won’t damage your book so you can remove them at any time. Select your favourite sticker designs to personalise your recordings.


Additiontal AnyBook Sticker Pack

When you run out of stickers, order one of the sticker packs, and keep recording books into AnyBook Plus. This way, you won’t run out of opportunities to share your voice with your children.
In these specially-coded stickers, each uses a unique code which allows you to associate different recordings with every page of your book. These stickers are unique in a pack and are different from those that come with your AnyBook Plus. This way you can record more and more pages without recording over anything you’ve previously done.

Each pack includes:

  • 800 blank, white stickers for recording
  • 320 pre-recorded sound effect stickers help bring stories to life

You can delete and record over a sticker.

Just like the stickers that come with AnyBook Plus, these stickers use special glue which won’t damage your book so you can remove them at any time.

Before You Buy: Every Sticker pack contains the same set of stickers. What this means for you is that each set of stickers can only be associated with one AnyBook Plus. If you have multiple AnyBook Pluses, go ahead and get more than one. Just make sure you keep them matched up with each device so there is no duplication.

Q: How many books does this work with?
A: Like it’s named, AnyBook Plus will work with any book you own. There is no limit.

Q: Does AnyBook Plus require batteries?
A: Yes. 2 AAA batteries are required and are not included.

Q: How much can I record?
A: AnyBook Plus can store up to 60 hours of recordings.

Q: Do I need to use this with a computer or the Internet?
A: No. Install 2 AAA batteries and AnyBook Plus is ready to use.
