Designed for children ages 2 and up, Danny the Dragon Meets Jimmy is an illustrated, narrated storybook that reads to children on its own. Even better is that deaf children won’t be left out, thanks to built-in sign language video.

As kids turn the pages at their own pace, an accompanying interpreter will provide visual narration. Touch devices like the iPad hold the potential to do great things for young readers, and we’re happy to see publishers ensure that those with disabilities are included. [iTunes]
