Why read it?
1 author picked Tap, Click, Read as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Tap, Click, Read was one of the first books to describe reading with screens in a balanced and measured way. I liked that the authors engaged with a range of research studies and outlined the significant potential of digital books for children’s literacy development, particularly if the books are designed with research principles in mind.

I loved the many examples in the book illustrating how young children tap, click and indeed read with modern interactive screens.
From Natalia's list on research on children’s technology use.
