Online books

Hello,
> Our kindergarten just finished using Mixbook for books and they are
> beautiful if a bit pricey. If you are going to make several books with the
> same information, then the price goes down considerably. You can choose
> hardback or paperback. To protect our young children, they are private but
> you can see examples. In February, they announced an education product.
> Here is a link to that http://www.mixbook.com/edu There are some great
> examples on that page. We found them easy to create and use.
Another teacher also used Tikatok to create a book. They will actually scan
things for you. She just let the book live online and the parents could
order if they liked. http://www.tikatok.com/help/teachers It was a class
book.
I am sure there are others but our experiences have been good with both.
