About Us

Choose Your Reader was founded by Mike Coles, a lawyer, award-winning screenwriter, and children’s book author.  As a divorced Dad, Mike wanted to create a way to connect with his son, even when they were apart.   Choose Your Reader was developed so that Mike could share the stories his son loved with children everywhere, and build a platform for others to do the same.

Our Stories

The first stories to launch on the  Choose Your Reader  app were written by our founder, Mike Coles, for his son.  We hope these stories delight you and all the children you love!  We are also excited for the community to grow as people like you submit stories for their loved ones.
