The Amarillo Public Library now provides unlimited access to TumbleBook Library, which is an online collection of animated, talking picture books which teach young children the joys of reading in a format they'll love. TumbleBooks are created by taking existing picture books, adding animation, sound, music and narration to produce an electronic picture book which you can read or have read to you. The collection can be accessed on-line from the library with Internet connection, or from home through the library websites at http://www.amarillolibrary.org/.

     TumbleBooks is a great way to encourage children to read and develop their comprehension skills. So the next time your children ask to play on the computer, go to http://www.amarillolibrary.org/ and click on TumbleBooks for an interactive educational resource your children will enjoy. TumbleBooks is available in English and Spanish.
