What is the age range for the sound books?

Our sound books are perfect for ages 0-5 years old. With our sound books, children can benefit from listening to nursery rhymes, getting an introduction to reading, and enjoying bonding time with their caregivers from a very early age. Our recordable books are great for ages 3-10. Toddlers can push the button and listen to the stories, while older children can begin to read using the highlighted words to help word recognition. Young readers can even read and record their own voice! Find all our customers favorite books and collections

Carmen is so pleased with herself when she presses the button to get the nursery rhymes to play! This is such a brilliant idea - I just wish I had these when I was a kid!! Makes reading time so engaging and fun.

My granddaughter cannot get enough of “Baby Shark Animal Songs”! It is her favorite book by far. She loves to sit on her own, turn the pages, push the buttons and listen to the songs — especially her personal favorite, “Baby Shark.” Highly recommend!

My son loves this book. Here he is with his best friend listening to Las Ruedas del Autobus. They were both doing the hand movements and laughing. They had so much fun! Highly recommend this for any moms trying to connect with their little ones as much as they can.

My great granddaughter had trouble getting into her reading time so I bought her a few of these and now it is her favorite activity of the day. Thank you for making this time with my Lila so special. She is loving them.

My daughter loves these books so grandma got her more for her birthday. As you can see, they were a big hit with the other kids too! One of the best presents we’ve ever gotten and now we’re collecting them all!

We love the books and Elena loves when we sit and play the book for her. Will order more for sure - not sure how to go back to regular childrens books after this! They’re just so sweet and fun.

Frequently Asked Questions

For the love of books

Hi, I’m Cali! I’ve loved books since childhood and wished to share this enthusiasm with my children.

I’m French of Caribbean origin (Martinique, to be precise!) and grew up in Paris— but I now call Los Angeles home, where I live with my two young children. My passion for books stems from the musical board books I found in France.  They had embedded sound buttons that babies and children pushed to hear songs and musical tunes. I wanted to offer the same pleasure to children in the English-speaking world. Thus, Cali's Books was born.
