Worthy project but waiting for facelift – ICDL Books for Children - International Children's Digital Library Review

I really got excited about the app and about having children stories on the go, but in practice, the app is not as good as it has the potential to become. Mere (poor) scans of the originals are too analog for the iPhone . Here are a few suggestions, for which I'd even be willing to have the app not be free anymore, that apply to all books except "Waldo at the Zoo", which I think works well: - more books - better image resolution - more intuitive text. (The pop up text, though not necessarily a bad idea in itself, is quite a turn off in children books.) - more language choices, manageable in the app settings, and/or through a language menu accessible from the books themselves, maybe through a small flag icon or something similar - possibility to zoom in on picture details and text - possibilty to bookmark favorite books - narration in multiple languages
