What is Epic Games Store?

Epic is a digital reading platform designed for children aged 12 and under, offering access to thousands of high-quality books from major publishers like HarperCollins and National Geographic. Its primary purpose is to foster reading confidence and curiosity through a curated collection of 40,000+ titles. Parents, educators, and children use the platform to explore age-appropriate content, with features tailored to support learning and engagement. The tool addresses the challenge of providing safe, diverse, and accessible reading materials for young audiences, while also offering tools for educators to manage subscriptions and monitor progress. By partnering with publishers, Epic ensures a wide range of genres and reading levels, making it a valuable resource for families and schools seeking to cultivate literacy skills in a digital format.

How it works

Epic is a digital reading platform that provides children with access to thousands of books from trusted publishers. It functions as a subscription-based service that streams content directly to devices, eliminating the need for physical books. The platform is specifically designed for children aged 12 and under, with content filtered to ensure safety and appropriateness. Educators and parents can use it to track reading progress, assign books, and create personalized reading experiences. Epic offers a vast library of books, including original content and popular titles from partners like National Geographic. It includes features such as read-aloud functionality, vocabulary highlighting, and progress tracking for educators. The platform also provides tools for schools to manage subscriptions and monitor student engagement.

Frequently asked

How do I create an account for my child on Epic?

Visit the Epic website and select 'Sign Up' for a parent or educator account. Follow the prompts to create a profile, then add your child's details to link their reading progress. Parents can manage multiple children under one subscription.

How does Epic ensure content is appropriate for children?

Epic partners with publishers to filter content for age-appropriateness, avoiding mature themes or explicit material. The platform also includes automated content moderation and allows educators to approve books for classroom use. Parents can manually review book descriptions before assigning them to children.

Can I download books to read offline?

Epic does not support offline reading. All books must be accessed through a web browser or the Epic app, which requires an internet connection. However, the platform allows users to save books to a device for reading without an active internet connection.

How does Epic compare to other children's reading platforms like Scholastic or Bookshare?

Epic offers a broader selection of books from major publishers, including titles from National Geographic and HarperCollins, while Scholastic focuses on educational content and Bookshare provides accessible books for readers with disabilities. Unlike these platforms, Epic includes read-aloud features and progress tracking tools tailored for classroom and home use.
