As Christmas approaches, we are all on the look out for different presents to buy for the kids. Where as books used to be the best gift to purchase if you wanted to buy a child a story, the launch of itunes and subsequent applications that can be viewed on computers, ipads and even mobile phones has meant that stories can now be purchased in a multitude of different formats other than paperbacks.
There are some great visual applications out there, which have turned classic children's books into interactive stories. Here's some of our favourites!
1. Alice in Wonderland by Atomic Antelope: A digital version of Lewis Carroll's story made available for the ipad, where readers can make Alice grow or shrink, and they can throw tarts at the Queen of Hearts!
2. Cathy's Book by Running Press: A reality game book for young adults to interact with. Great for teenagers.
3. The Amanda Project by HarperCollins: A fiction series aimed at girls over the age of 13. The story unfolds for readers over an interactive website.
4. Moshi Monsters by Mind Candy: A online game where you adopt a pet monster. The book publishers Penguin are now developing Moshi Monster books to accompany this online game.
