:baby: Superbook: ABC's for babies!

ABCD-Animals-Book

A cute and cuddly superbook for newborns. Brought to you by web.

First of its kind, this book uses only css to showcase the English alphabets and adorable animals to help babies stare only that bit longer. No flashy gimmicks, no stupid gamification. Just a book. Straight on the web.

Support: It's supported everywhere - iPads, iPhones, Android Phones & tablets, Kindle, Desktops, TVs.

Superbook

The book is live: ABCD Animals Book

It's best experienced on the iPad & Android tablets. Slight frame rate quirks might occur on Android tablets due to the hacky use of CSS3 animations. Just for the fun of it.

Hack it

$ git clone https://github.com/marvindanig/ABCD-Animal-Book.git
$ npm install
$ bookiza server

Opens the book at localhost:4567.

How to install the book on your iPad for the baby:

• Open the book on Safari.
• Tap the Share button at the top of the screen.
• Tap Add to Home Screen…

Done! The book will open like an app! Speak loudly as you make the alphabet bounce :-)
