Share a Story-Shape a Future: The Future of Reading
" I have always loved picture books. Growing up, I stared at my favorite for hours at a time wishing I could visit the magical worlds on its pages. Through drawing, I found a door and was seldom seen without a drawing pad tucked under my arm. When I drew, I lived in the stories that filled my head. Eventually, I put them to paper as well."

I am interested to read if others think eBooks, audiobooks and all will ever replace print. I feel a little old fashioned admitting I hope not!
You should check out Adventurebox books. They are great for Kids aged 6-9 and have award winning writer Michael Morpurgo as a guest author in the upcoming March issue! Get his guest issue free here
Book Chook - I know how you feel. We'll always need print. The idea of 'bundling' intrigues me and I like the possibilities it offers.
Blue - Very cool. Thanks for the link.
I love Kathleen Duey's response so much. Here's to embracing these new possibilities... it's a great time to be a writer.
