Common questions
Everything parents and grandparents ask before they start.
What is Covenant Reader?
Original, beautifully illustrated Christian stories for children ages 2–7. They aren't Bible retellings — they're everyday stories that each plant a single, Scripture-grounded truth and apply it to a child's world.
What ages is it for?
Ages 2–7 today, across two reading levels. Adventure-reader stories for ages 8–10 are opening soon.
Who writes and reviews the stories?
Every story is written and theologically reviewed by our founder, Brian Reinke (M.Div). Brian studied theology at Westminster Theological Seminary, earned his Master of Divinity from Cairn University, and has served on staff at three conservative, Bible-believing churches.
How much does it cost?
One simple Founding Family plan covers up to 4 children: $69/year or $7.99/month at founding launch pricing. Every plan starts with a 14-day free trial, and you can cancel anytime.
Is there a free trial?
Yes — 14 days, cancel anytime. You can also read our free sample stories with no account at all.
Can I give it as a gift?
Yes. A one-year gift has no shipping and starts the night it's redeemed — a perfect gift from grandparents.
Is this just more screen time?
It's a quieter kind of screen moment: no ads, no autoplay, no endless feed — just finite stories, plus a short parent note for conversation afterward.
How do you protect my child's privacy?
Accounts belong to adults; a child profile stores only a nickname and reading level — never an email or photo. We don't run ads or place third-party trackers on the pages your child reads, and you can delete your account and its data yourself anytime.
How often do new stories arrive?
New stories unlock on a regular weekly cadence, so the library keeps growing for your family.
