Cool to be Clever: Edson Hendricks for iPad - Digital Storytime's Review

Cool to be Clever: Edson Hendricks for iPad - Digital Storytime's Review | Readers Advisory For Secondary Schools | Scoop.it
From digital-storytime.com - July 16, 2012 9:34 PM
Overall, this is a phenomenal title that presents non-fiction content in a more modern way, letting kids explore and learn at their own pace, with or without narration. This title would be great for lessons on bullying, the Internet, biography and more. Struggling, older readers will also benefit from having a title tailored to their interests with the option to listen rather than read (although text does not highlight). This is truly a must-download title. My highest recommendation!

 

An excellent free book app with appeal to readers from 8 to adult. Well reviewed by Carisa Kluver. Find more digital story reviews on this page.

Laser Lace Letters - 7 Tangible Steampunk Stories

From www.kickstarter.com - November 16, 2012 5:57 PM
"Seven Victorians had their silhouettes made at a little shop in London, and then, they vanished. What happened? The letters tell all. Laser Lace Letters is a series of tangible stories where you become a steampunk detective on the trail of a string of mysterious disappearances. At the heart of each story is a beautiful, laser cut cameo handmade in felt by artist Haley Moore."

This is a Kickstarter project which would be brilliant for storytelling, modelling and exploring the steampunk genre. Here's hoping it reaches it's target. Otherwise, perhaps it is an idea to emulate with kids.
