All you have to say is “Hey Google, read along with Ara, the Star Engineer!”

Or Frozen, Aladdin or the Lion King!

With Google Assistant’s read-along story time feature, you can read books to your little one and have cool sound effects come in at just the right moment.

You just have to say “Hey Google, read along with (insert the title).”

Google Assistant will listen as you read and change the music and add special effects (like robot beeps and boops) at just the right spots. It’s really cool and fun!

Pro Tip #1

Download Ara the Star Engineer for free and then test it out with Google Assistant read-along!

Pro Tip #2 

This awesome feature unfortunately doesn’t work in the Assistant app, so you’ll have to have a Nest smart speaker or display to try it out.
