DIGITAL CHILDREN'S BOOKS - FREE!!!

When Porter and I travel to foreign lands, we load up on comics and children's books in the native languages - and always get a few for our dad (who has all the Tintins in English and French...and now in Danish, Turkish, German, Spanish and Japanese). So, when I discovered the International Children's Digital Library, I almost screamed with joy. AND - they have a free app - StoryKit - that lets little kids write their own stories for old picture books - or create newfangled tales of their own.

Two of my favorites from the site are Dear Children, the 1954 collection of Dušan Radović's Serbian poems with illustrations from Đorđe Milanović and Selected Fables for Children by Jean de La Fontaine, which includes the original run of the tortoise and hare. The gorgeous book from 1888 was illustrated by M.B. de Monvel.
