Google Gemini Storybooks uses AI to generate online storybooks based on your prompts. The books include graphics and sound. It works in multiple languages and is free to use.

Language teacher Russell Stannard has produced a comprehensive video which will give you a full walkthrough of a how you can use Storybooks for creating engaging, custom language content, as well as personalising the stories by including the names of your learners in them. He also shows you how to generate a list of targeted comprehension questions and a curated vocabulary list with key terms and phrases, all based directly on your story. Once the story is generated, you can also use Gemini to produce a complete lesson plan.
