Are E-books in Style in Children's Books?
Are E-books in Style in Children's Books?
For a while, e-books were all the rage. Parents bought kindles and readers for their children for Christmas and birthdays. I was one of those parents. As teenagers, my boys, using the kindle or any reader was short-lived. But now, they have picked it up again and are reading e-books more than heavy books that they would have to carry. My guys are adults now so they are reading mostly adult books as e-books. But do kids read e-books? I did some research. The local librarian in my hometown says that e-books are on their way in again. Go to any library website and you will find a list of e-books for children. Kids are on-line more these days than they ever were so don't be surprised if they want to read a book on their kindle. I have a book on kindle that is a chapter book for children ages 7-10. I was surprised to find it listed in so many different countries!
In the U.S.A. Cool!

I do think e-books are coming back in style. There is plenty of evidence on Amazon Kindle and many other platforms out there!
How do you get your e-book into the library system if you are a children's author? That question remains for me to do more research.

Butterfly Girls
by Beryl Reichenberg
"How does a Monarch Butterfly teach two young girls how to fly?"
Well, if you want to find out, I suggest reading Beryl's picture book published by Oak Tree Press.
Here's an excerpt:
One morning Ashley went into the yard, and to her suprise, there was a bright,
orange and black butterfly, flapping its wings.
"Little butterfly, when did you come out of your chrysalis?"
This lovely book tells a story of two girls discovering the beauty and magic of the butterflies. I recommend
this book for children ages 3 and up.
Here's a link to Beryl's website where you can find more information:
