About Berry Tea Above
Dara the marten zips her pack at the trailhead, gathers a ripe berry by the ferns, steps the cold stream, and cinches her pouch for the rocky climb. Wind meets her on the ridge, then the summit opens wide. By dusk, she reaches camp and shares hot berry tea.

How to read it together
Start at the right level
Level 1 is single words for early talkers. Level 2 is short phrases. Level 3 is full storybook sentences. Switch any time, even mid-scene — the art stays put and only the language changes.
Let them find the words
Two glowing spots hide in every scene. Tap one, hear the word, then pause and wait — the wait is where your child's turn happens.
Session-ready
Therapist mode mutes the narration and lays out each scene's target words with their speech-sound tags, so a clinician models and elicits every word live.
