ICDL – The International Children’s Digital Library

Admittedly this is not a Perth based organisation but this is such a wonderful site, it needed to be shared:

The mission of the International Children’s Digital Library Foundation is to excite and inspire the world’s children to become members of the global community – children who understand the value of tolerance and respect for diverse cultures, languages and ideas — by making the best in children’s literature available online.

StoryLine Online

The Screen Actors Guild Foundation brings you Storyline Online, an on-line streaming video program featuring SAG members reading children’s books aloud!  Each book includes accompanying activities and lesson ideas.

Tumble Books

Tumble Books is an online collection of animated, talking picture books which teach kids the joy 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 includes Story Books, Life Learning, Puzzles & Games and Language Learning from children’s book publishers such as Scholastic, Chronicle Books, Candlewick Press, Charlesbridge Press, Harcourt, Little Brown, Walker and Company and others.
