Tumblebooks for kids!

Did you know that the library has fabulous e-books for kids online? TumbleBooks are audiovisual versions of popular books that you can access from the OCPL website. From our website, www.ocpl.org, click on "Children's Services," and then click on "E-Books for E-Kids."

TumbleBook story books are animated versions of popular picture books such as Little Pea, Diary of a Worm, and Miss Malarkey Doesn't Live in Room 10, complete with text and sound. There are also full text e-book versions of lengthier chapter books, such as The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, with the option to turn on an audio recording of the displayed text.

TumbleBooks are great for parents who are looking to present reading in a new way and also for kids who are learning to read independently. The chapter e-books are also great for kids who read better while listening to the text at the same time.
