Every one loves interactive books, well at least we do.<\/p>\n
Here are some of our favs.<\/p>\n
1.<\/b>“Alice for the iPad<\/a>”\u00a0 This lavishly illustrated 52-page abridgment of the classic tale incorporates animation like no other e-book to date. Readers can tilt the iPad to make Alice grow and shrink; shake it to watch the Mad Hatter’s bobblehead bobble; and so on. The frantically paced demo video (above) is a little over-the-top, but there’s no question this is a showpiece iPad app. Thankfully, there’s a free Lite version<\/a> you can try before splurging on the $8.99 full version.<\/p>\n 2.<\/b>Dr. Seuss books<\/a>\u00a0 Already among my favorites (uh, I mean, my kids’<\/i> favorites)on the iPhone<\/a><\/span>, Oceanhouse Media’s three Seuss titles–“Dr. Seuss’ ABC,” “The Cat in the Hat,” and “How the Grinch Stole Christmas”–are just that much bigger and better on the iPad. Each interactive story sells for $2.99–quite a bit less than their respective hardcovers (as it should be). Oh, and stay tuned: one of my all-time favorite Seuss titles, “The Lorax,” will make its iPad\/iPhone debut in about a week.<\/p>\n
