What parents need to know
Parents need to know that the free trial subscription to Disney Digital Books is but a preview of the features of full membership. Once subscribed, kids are able to navigate around a safe environment full of reading opportunities. But before you subscribe it pays to realize that all of these stories are based on Disney productions, so if it ain't Disney, you won't find it here. The interaction opportunities are limited to pre-selected responses and the books are categorized for different age groups. Interactive features are also geared toward more younger kids.
Educational value:
Storybooks are categorized into different reading levels, so kids can easily select the right type of story to match their reading skills. Kids can use the Magic-Pen to click on words and hear them spoken, while the Dictionary tool explains the meaning of words they don't know.
