یہ نظم ایک مزاحیہ اور دلچسپ کہانی سناتی ہے ایک نرالے بھوت مسٹر ٹام کی، جسے چوری کرنے کا کافی شوق تھا۔  رات کے اندھیرے میں وہ بستی کے گھروں میں نقب لگاتا اور دولت لوٹ کر غائب ہو جاتا۔ لیکن جب وہ اپنی چالاکی پر زیادہ ناز کرنے لگا، تو ایک دن پکڑا گیا! آخر ٹام کے ساتھ کیا ہوا؟ کیا وہ سدھر گیا یا پھر کوئی نیا پٹارا کھلنے  والا ہے؟ آئیے، جانتے ہیں اس شرارتی مگر مزے دار بھوت کی  نظم میں!

I recently downloaded this app, and now my kids no longer pester me at night to tell them a story. My eldest daughter reads independently, and the younger ones listen to her.

Zarnish Ali, Parent

I started using the AlifLaila app for my niece, and honestly, I’ve had a great experience. She was already interested in stories, and now her interest has grown even more.

Nimra Iqbal, Aunt

I got this app for my son. Since I wanted to instill the love of reading in him and I wanted to register for some library, unfortunately, we don’t have any libraries in our city. Then I came across your digital library. That was very affordable and saved the hassle of travel.

Hina Umer, Parent

We recently moved out of Pakistan, and for the past few months, my son has been telling me how much he misses his grandmother, who used to tell him bedtime stories. I am not great at storytelling so when my sister-in-law mentioned an app that her kids in Pakistan were enjoying I decided to try it out. Now, my son is thrilled to hear new stories from me every day and those complaints have disappeared. Thank you AlifLaila for bringing happiness back to our bedtime route in, even miles away from.
