Storyline Online

Not Canadian, but still a great resource.

Thanks to the Screen Actors’ Guild, StoryLine Online features well known actors like Betty White, James Earl Jones, Sean Austin and Amanda Bynes,  reading kids’ stories. You get to watch the illustrations come to life as the story is read and enjoy a great storytime!

Some books like:

  • Harry, the Dirty Dog
  • Stellaluna
  • No Mirrors in my Nana’s House
  • A Bad Case of Stripes
  • Me and my Cat

After you have finished the book, there are some thought provoking questions and other activities that you can do to expand the lesson more!

I have to admit, I’ve been very impressed with this website. It’s really fun and a great idea to use familiar faces to retell favourite childhood stories!
