Google Home and Disney’s Little Golden Books launched Disney Read Along, a new Google Home feature that enhances stories with sound effects and music as participating books are read out loud.

To use the feature, users say, “Hey Google, let’s read along with Disney.” If the reader skips ahead or goes backwards in the book, Google Home will recognize the change and adjust to match the story. If the reader pauses, ambient music will play until reading resumes.

Books supported by Disney Read Along are: Mickey’s Christmas Carol (Target exclusive), The Three Little Pigs, Alice in Wonderland, Cinderella, Coco, Jack Jack Attack, Mickey Mouse and his Spaceship, Moana, Toy Story 3, and Peter Pan.

The books will be available at Walmart, Target, and Barnes & Noble starting this week.
