In February of this year we set out to create an interactive children's book. We were successful! Bobo Tales, the app which launches our series Riverbottom Tales, went live in Novemember. We had a lot of fun and learned a ton through the whole process. We have recently begun work on the next book and I am excited to start on the art!

Here are a few of the pages in the book. The book offers sound, some music, and voice narration. There are various buttons hidden within some of the pages which pop up educational tidbits. And on others are buttons to allow children to interact with the pages themselves, either starting an animation or adding flow to the story.

great story, fun colors, and lovable characters! |

if you were to click on the bird in the top right... |

... this would be the popup that you'd see. |

if you were to click the termite mound on the left... |

... this would be the popup that you'd see. |
You can see the app itself on the iTunes store
here. We have been getting some great feedback from kid's and their parents and I am really excited to keep making stories that kid's want to read! This has been a wonderful experience!
Much love,
