Ebook Week

This week we have been celebrating ebooks with Kindergarten, first, and second graders in the library.  Many of them didn't know that ebook stood for electronic book even though most of them had read an ebook before.  We also had technical difficulties to navigate through as I was trying to show them the ebooks we have in Destiny.  I had planned on reading one of those ebooks to them, but ended up using a Tumblebook when my Destiny ebooks wouldn't load.

Despite tech difficulties, the show went on and K, 1, and 2 students got to both hear a Tumblebook and explore the Epic! app at the tables after check out to read additional ebooks.  All of them showed a definite preference for the ebooks that would read the book to them!
