Louisa May Alcott

Once, two eleven-year-old boys, Billy and Tommy, were sitting on a fence, whittling arrows. Tommy, feeling adventurous, suggested they run into the woods and go hunting. While Billy was hesitant and asked many questions in an attempt to avoid the idea, however, Tommy somehow convinced his cautious friend. Together, they headed into the forest with their bows, a few useful accessories, and a basket packed with lunch. Will the boys be able to hunt squirrels or snare any animals? Will they truly enjoy their adventure, or will it turn into real danger? Read this amusing and slightly suspenseful tale to find out what happens to brave Tommy and poor, anxious Billy as they try to live out their wildest dreams.

Get Started in 4 Simple Steps

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.
