Penguin Qbook is a digital picture book

Guess the time honored tradition of reading bedtime stories to your little ones before they nod off could disappear one day due to the advent of e-books. Take a look at the number of e-book readers in the market already, and with the impending launch of the Apple iPad, it seems as though the ordinary book doesn’t hold any more appeal, especially to the younger generation. Let Penguin inculcate the love for reading with their Qbook digital picture book. These digital tomes were specially designed to be interactive. where one relies on the Swipe-to-Read function on the story, letting little ones run their fingers across the words and letters in order to hear the story read aloud while enjoying a change in color as well as pop-up graphics. Not only that, the Touch-to-Hear function also enables kids to hear the individual word spoken in order to further improve their vocabulary. Apart from the Apple device family, Qbooks can be found on Windows 7, Symbian and Android platforms this coming May.
