She’s also a co-founder at Go2web20.net - which is a directory for Web2.0 applications. (in association with Eyal Shahar) Learn Moreere's a quick recommendation of a sweet site I just ran into called MeeGenius. The site contain a library with books for kids that can be read on the site itself, over the iPhone, or through the iPad.
The books come with audio playback and word highlighting, and can be personalized just the way you like them. Meaning, your kid name can be added to the book story in a snap. For example, you can change the character names in 'Little Red Riding Hood' to the original names in your family and make the story your own.
The children's book reader app for the iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad has the same functions (audio playback, word highlighting and auto-play). The books are displayed on a digital bookshelf and your kid can simply choose his favorite book when the app is launched.
I couldn't try it on the iPad, but from what I've tested on the web, the books are beautifully made, and the stories are well known so it will be more easy for children to connect to them. Best of all, you can read all the books at the site for free. Or download the iPhone/iPad apps (for a decent price)
