Sylvan Dell Publishing is offering a free trial of 45 eBooks.
These technologically advanced eBooks feature auto-flip, auto-read and selectable language (English and Spanish).
“There is nothing even close to this on the market,” said Lee German, publisher and co-founder. “Amazon/Kindle and Barnes & Noble eBooks are not even in the same category. I encourage parents and teachers to take a test drive and see for themselves. Let the children play with these for a few weeks, and you’ll be amazed at their excitement and improved reading performance. For children wanting to learn a foreign language or ESOL families learning English, these are phenomenal tools.”
The offer expires Oct. 31.

German said the company is developing an audio feature that will allow people to record their own voices reading the book.
“This is especially important for military families with a parent overseas,” he added.
The company is also working on creating an iPhone, iPod and iPod touch application to allow eBooks to be read on handhelds, as well as an online data capture system so teachers can track student reading and quiz performance.
