Abstract

An electronic reader for display and reading a story is described. The electronic reader comprises a reader module encased within a housing. The reader module is configured to read data contained on a story cartridge and to generate a signal to display text and a related illustration on a television screen. The text corresponds to a page of a story and includes words that are sequentially highlighted. Forward and reverse mechanisms are attached with the housing. Using the electronic reader, a user may attach a story cartridge with the electronic reader and display a page of a story onto a television with each word being sequentially highlighted. Using the forward and reverse mechanisms, the user can change the page of the story. Additionally, the story cartridge is an openable cartridge, such that when inserted into the electronic reader, the openable cartridge is opened to expose story pertinent content therein.
