Established in 1919, Children’s Book Week is an annual celebration of reading that actually runs for two weeks—one in the spring, and one in the fall. This week, of course, is the Spring Edition, with the theme of “An Ocean of Stories,” “celebrating the vast, collective ocean populated by the stories we read, share, and tell.” (Week the second will run in November.)
To find out more about the event, which runs May 5–11, and to download free stuff like bookmarks and activity pages, visit Children’s Book Week’s home at Every Child a Reader.
And speaking of books that inspire, if you’re looking for an awesome digital book for the children in your life (or even your own inner child!), then may we recommend one of our snazzy Illustrated Classics titles?
Snow White is the classic fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm. An evil, vain queen sets her jealous sights on her beautiful stepdaughter, and only an unusual group of gentleman can help Snow overcome the queen’s nefarious plans. Even more exciting, the StarWarp Concepts edition is enhanced with beautiful full-color illustrations that were first published in 1893!
“Snow White delivers a timely message about survival even when the odds are not in your favor.”—The New Yorker
“One of the best-loved of the stories collected by the Brothers Grimm.”—Long Long Time Ago
