StarWalk Kids Media Supports Winter Reading with Free Access to All eBooks

12/01/2014 (press release: liznealon) // Great Neck, NY, USA // Ron Maas

StarWalk Kids Media has announced that it will make all 520 eBooks in its collection available free of charge for anyone with Internet access—children, families and educators—from December 24, 2014 through January 5, 2015. NO Passwords • NO logins. Kids can just start reading by visiting StarWalkKids.com/PopUp.

“This is the second year that we’ve focused on winter break as an optimum time to make our PopUp Library available to all children,” said founder and author Seymour Simon. “So many families give and receive new computers, tablets and other devices over the holidays. It is a perfect time to encourage children to use these technologies for reading.”

Anyone who visits StarWalkKids.com/popup can immediately read any eBook on any device. School Library Journal described the collection as “…gorgeously designed Pre-K through Grade 8 eBooks…Tightly curated for exceptional quality, the collection is about 60 percent highly illustrated nonfiction, and all titles are simultaneous-access licensed, making a subscription to StarWalk Kids a solid way to support Common Core State Standards (CCSS) for reading and writing.” Most StarWalk Kids eBooks also offer a “Read to Me” option for kids, with high quality, professional narration.

Teachers and librarians may download a printable flyer at http://bit.ly/winterpopflyer, to send home with children to make families aware of this unique winter break reading opportunity. There are  promotional assets available to be used on school library and public library websites at: http://starwalkkids.com/extras/marketing-materials.html
