We present a virtual reality app specifically designed for reading/listening to short stories and poems. Empirical studies with VR narrative experiences have proven that the process of embodied simulation enhanced by the VR medium increases users’ absorption and engagement. Accordingly, this solution can be effectively used to promote reading and increase motivation for learning. We discuss the design choices adopted to facilitate its widespread adoption and maximise readers’ engagement with stories.

Abstract
We present a virtual reality app specifically designed for reading/listening to short stories and poems. Empirical studies with VR narrative experiences have proven that the process of embodied simulation enhanced by the VR medium increases users’ absorption and engagement. Accordingly, this solution can be effectively used to promote reading and increase motivation for learning. We discuss the design choices adopted to facilitate its widespread adoption and maximise readers’ engagement with stories.
