I won’t be stating the obvious but would apologize for it. Two weeks in a row, whew, sorry-so late!

I’m an advocate of getting the kids to read books so they would spend less on gadgets. But what if gadgets make books appear cooler to them like the app iBook on the iPhone, Amazon Kindle, Ipad books or other e-book reader out there? Pretty cool and I think kids would really be engaged in reading…Just like the Tale of Peter Rabbit Jona shared last week. They’re not just pop outs now, they’re digital – making noises and they move. Cute!
I, however, lean more on traditional books. ^_^I still carry my Brönte’s, Austen’s and Garcia-Marqueuz’ around so look:
My ibook shelf is empty…purely a brown shelf. ^_^

same here, i prefer the traditional way…
i guess that’s one of the reasons why i don’t have any online bookshelf/ves! lol
…am still open about the idea, though. 🙂
