Children’s books have sure come a long way since I was a tyke, and popular fairy tales are no exception.

Not too long ago I gave Puss in BootsHD by Intech-Global a spin, reading it to my 4 year old son on my iPad 2. It was my son’s first foray into the realm of electronic book media.
Summary from Intech-Global:
Fairy tales are the best instrument for spiritual and moral development of a child. Fairy wisdom is simple, but at the same time rich and diverse. It gets into the child’s life and contributes to the formation of self-development and self-esteem. It is very important to explain to a child which character is good, and which one is bad, which character should be taken as an example, and which one should not. IPad application will help you in this task. Vivid illustrations help to create a visual representation of the heroes, and the possibility to set the characters in the movement develops the child’s imagination.Such old, kind, naive tales, as the works of Charles Perrault teach people to be more merciful and humane. “Puss in Boots” helps in the formation of the child’s worldview, teaches them to solve live problems and never give up.
What I Like: Fun, interactive way to read a classic story with children; Good for kids to explore the story by themselves
