Well then, where in the world can you get it?
From iTunes.
You can download it right now from iTunes for free.
Designed by researchers at the University of Maryland in the USA, StoryKit comes to us from the ICDL (International Children's Digital Library) Foundation.
Use it to create an electronic storybook.
For free.
On your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Make any story you like. Simply write some words, and add drawings or photos.
To get you started, the StoryKit application comes with 4 public domain children's books.
Rearrange -- edit and change -- any of the 4 books to make a new story that suits your point of view.
It's a lovely, creative way to spend a few spare moments.
Do it by yourself. Or in a group.
How about using this free app to organize a story contest -- on a trip with friends, for example -- just an informal, amicable contest, of course!
Plus, if you're a teacher, find ways to use StoryKit in the classroom.
First, choose a topic for the story.
If you like, ask your students for ideas.
But keep an eye on the clock -- time management is an essential part of any lesson.
So, in one way or another, quickly decide on a title for the story.
Then, each student could come up with a sentence. Or a drawing. Or a photo.
As a result, the whole story would be made up of parts contributed by each student.
In other words, the story would be a joint effort.
A group activity in which everyone would have to take part by giving a sentence or a picture.
It's a great way to spark creativity in anyone, whatever their age.
So, here's the link to the free StoryKit application on iTunes:
