Notable Quote:
"Anytime you can share that with the computer, kids love being with a computer, playing on it, and having it interact with them. As you've heard at the beginning, the voice on the reading, even though it's a computer-based voice, sounds even better than Siri or Alexa. So kids really like to read with that computer." - Marty Schultz.
