The right book at the right moment is what gives a child — and then a teenager — the taste for reading. Every story on Germe d'histoires — lullabies, picture books, AI tales, audiobooks, author works — is sorted into 9 age bands, against strict criteria of vocabulary, length, themes and emotions. From newborn to high-school student, we stay in young-readers territory.
Before reading comes sound, voice and gaze. Very short content, designed with early-childhood specialists.
From repetitive picture books to first structured tales.
From first autonomous reading to engaged YA novels. We stay in young-readers territory, never sliding into adult content.
Slapping an age band on a cover is easy to write. Making it real takes process. Here is how every story does — or does not — make it in front of your child.
Partner author or AI engine: the target age band is set at creation. It conditions the AI prompt, tone and length.
Every story goes through a filter that verifies length, lexical richness, absence of forbidden words for the band, and presence of sensitive themes.
Every paid author story goes through our editorial team, who validate or request a revision before publication. That is the "approved" status.
If a story feels mis-classified to you, report it in one tap from the app. The content is hidden while we review.
Every child profile declares its age. The app only offers stories from the matching band (and the one just below if you wish). You can also manually unlock a higher band, or restrict certain themes.
