Wild About Books
© 2011 Random House Children's Books
An ebook about books? Why not? This wonderfully crafted interactive story contains 16 animated scenes designed to reward a child's touch with animation and narration. The story is based on the book with the same title by Judy Sierra and illustrated by Marc Brown. Features include stop/start narration (just touch the block of text to stop or start the narrator, mid-word if you like), word highlighting, and hidden animations that will appeal to all ages. The printed text is best suited to the upper elementary reader. Each page contains embedded, child-controlled animated features that are activated by a touch and/or tilt, and each routine supports the story. Tilting causes the 3D scene to subtly change 3D view. Created by Smashing Ideas for Random House.
