Here's a fun way to put yourself into a book, and create a funny language experience. Note, that you'll need a camera on your iPad (e.g., the iPad 2). Also note that there are both free and paid version pathways to these stories. The free version does everything on Earth to trick you or your child into buying additional content by way of an in-app sale. It also tries to snag your contact information, (email address, twitter or facebook information) if you share your work. This first title, called "The Biggest Pizza Ever," tells the story of a kid who wreaks havoc on his town with a gigantic pizza pie. The book features simple character animations. Additional titles cost $8 each, or you can subscribe for $4/month. The second book, “The Alphabet Wrangler," is about a child who has to chase the letters of the alphabet around the house after they mischievously escape from a book. JibJab plans on releasing new titles every month. Once you purchase a book, it can be personalized an unlimited number of times at no additional cost.
