Rewarding Reading

BoomReader is designed to make logging reading quick and easy whilst providing schools with the reading insights they need.

  • Every reading log earns your child Gems.
  • Gems can be swapped for collectable reward cards.
  • Children can spend Gems customising their very own Boomer character.

But BoomReader is so much more...

A better understanding of reading.

By swapping to digital reading records, you are helping your child's school to gain a better understanding of reading and save hours of valuable teacher time.

With BoomReader, teachers have instant, searchable access to reading data which can help improve reading outcomes.

Reduce Waste & Cost

Going digital saves needless paper usage. As there's never a need to replace lost books, it can save schools money too.
