A Digital Library of Children's Books

Here's the scenario - your pre-schooler wants to look at your computer screen and you want your pre-schooler to read a book with you. Now thanks to an initiative by the Pearson Foundation and Penguin Group you can read books on the computer with your child for free on http://www.wegivebooks.org/. Over 200 books are geared for different age ranges from toddler to school-aged children.  There are fiction and non-fiction books and selections of series like Skippyjon Jones. Some of our household faves are on the site including: Baby Signs, Llama Llama Red Pajama (preschool), Goodnight iPad (a good laugh for older kids and parents), and Miss Rumphius.
Want to show your appreciation for this  resource?  You can click on the site's  "give a book" donation button to donate money for one or more children's book to a child in need.
