eBook description:

"The Tell-Tale Heart" is a short story by Edgar Allan Poe first published in 1843. It is told by an unnamed narrator who endeavors to convince the reader of his sanity, while describing a murder he committed. The murder is carefully calculated, and the murderer hides the body by dismembering it and hiding it under the floorboards. Ultimately the narrator's guilt manifests itself in the form of the sound—possibly hallucinatory—of the old man's heart still beating under the floorboards. The story was first published in James Russell Lowell's The Pioneer in January 1843. "The Tell-Tale Heart" is widely considered a classic of the Gothic fiction genre and is one of Poe's most famous short stories.(Summary adapted from Wikipedia)

What are read aloud eBooks?

Read aloud eBooks are a combination of an audiobook and an ebook, where the audio has been aligned with the text. When turning on read aloud in the player, the text is highlighted as it is being spoken in the audiobook.

Sinkronigo read aloud eBooks have been created using the latest speech-to-text alignment technology and our eBooks are compatible with the major epub3 players (currently Itunes, Kobo and Google). We offer two types of read aloud eBooks, reader and learner, suitable for different use cases:

Sinkronigo learner: In these eBooks each word in the text is highlighted as it is spoken. These are perfect to learn a new language as it becomes very clear where in the audio each word starts and ends. Once the user acquires some listenning hability in the new language we recommend trying the sinkronigo reader eBooks.
Sinkronigo reader: These eBooks highlight the text grouped in sentences as it is being narrated. This type of books are perfect for language learners with enough control of the language or for people using read aloud books for any other purposes (multisensorial experience, dyslexic people, alternating between reading and listenning, etc.).
