... brought to life in an iPad app!
It’s the literary equivalant of buried treasure! Seven delightfully entertaining lost Dr. Seuss stories, originally published in magazines in the 1950s, have now been given new life as interactive omBooks! omBooks are eBooks skillfully developed into interactive apps for iPads, and if your a fan of Apps for iPads you already know that they bring you first-rate quality at an affordable price!
“These stories were written at a time when Dr. Seuss was really hitting his stride as a writer and illustrator,” said Susan Brandt, President of Dr. Seuss Enterprises. “It’s almost like getting a peek into his creative genius before he published such classic works as The Cat in Hat and Green Eggs and Ham.”
This is the first time the rediscovered stories have been published in book or digital form and the first time that Oceanhouse Media has launched an omBook simultaneously with a physical book’s release. Aside from scholars and collectors, few eyes have seen these rare tales for more than half a century.
