DHX INTERACTIVE BREATHES LIFE INTO LIVING STORIES
Toronto, 4 February 2010. DHX Interactive, a leading provider of youth targeted interactive games, activities, and rich online environments, has launched its latest apps for the iPhone� and iPod� Touch. The Living Stories brand of animated storybooks will bring new and classic children�s tales to life starting with the Hans Christian Andersen classic The Princess and the Pea and King Midas. Both are available now on the iTunes App Store at a price of $1.99.
Combining beautiful art, narration, interactive features and compelling stories, the app is easy-to-use for kids, allowing preschoolers to read along on their own. Living Stories is the perfect way to entertain kids and to help them learn to read, whether at home or on-the-go.
Users can read along with full English language narration, that is accompanied by beautiful illustrations developed specifically for iPhone screens. Or, readers can even record their own narration, adding their voice to the book to play back again and again. Pages turn just like a real book, with a tap. Plus, there are added interactive extras such as touch illustrations for sounds and movement.
Anne Loi, Senior VP Finance and Operations of DHX Media said: �This is an ideal marriage of DHX�s production expertise in animation, illustration and storytelling, and our interactive division�s expertise in developing content specifically tailored to these devices. The Living Stories app titles are perfect for kids and parents.�
