Grandma Story
A grandmother, a comfortable chair, and one book at a time.
A YouTube read-aloud library built for children ages 3–8 — and the parents who want their kids reading, not scrolling. One book per episode. Simple, warm, and endlessly replayable.
Grandma Story is a read-aloud library for young children — one book, one episode, one grandmother who has been reading to children her whole life. Each episode opens with a warm greeting, moves through the book at a child's pace, and closes simply. No segments, no interruptions, no spectacle. Children can loop a favorite, follow along with their own copy, or work through the full library. Parents get a screen that supplements reading rather than replacing it. It's quiet time, not entertainment.

Grandma Story launches on YouTube with an initial library of 20 episodes, then releases on a consistent weekly-plus schedule through the first year. The back catalog is the real asset — a child who finds one book they love will watch it again and again, and discover the rest of the library naturally. Parents share episodes that work for their kids. The channel grows through the same word-of-mouth that children's books have always grown through.
Educational channels with consistent, calm content and a strong back catalog have shown steady multi-year audience growth — particularly among parents of young children looking for screen time they actually feel good about. Grandma Story is built to be exactly that kind of channel.
Grandma Story is a collaborative project between its host, the authors whose books she reads, and the sponsors who make it possible — all working together to get more children excited about reading. Joining is simple: just send a few copies of your book for filming and for episode giveaways on Grandma Story's Instagram. There are no licensing fees and no creative obligations beyond that.
