Sesame Bringing E-Books to the iPhone

Two weeks after Sesame Workshop said it would launch a line of digital books for children 2 to 6 years old, the nonprofit organization has launched an iPhone app that will let kids read Sesame books on a smartphone while listening to a recording of their parents’ voice reading along.

The first to launch will be “Where Is the Puppy” series which is made of four books/apps about the character Elmo looking for a lost puppy, available for download now for $1.99 in Apple’s App Store.   Six more titles are expected to roll out in January, according to Jeffrey Fleishman, Assistant Vice President for Media Distribution Business Development of Sesame Workshop.
