- The Enhanced eBook (EeBook) for The Age of Innocence is out! This includes the first six chapters' worth of text, links to the podcast audio, discussion questions and writing prompts. Each week your book is updated as the next podcast is released.
What does an EeBook look like? Here are sample pages from a previous book:
 |
 |
 |
| Enchanced eBooks (EeBooks) will include the complete digital text when the podcast/book is complete. | Direct link icons take you to the CraftLit and Just the Books mp3 audio. That way you can listen to the chapter in the background while letting your eyes see the words on the page. | Each chapter—or set of chapters—contained in a podcast file concludes with discussion questions for book groups and writing prompts for students—making the EeBooks useful for ESL students and homeschooling families. |
| This EeBook is updated weekly—at the same time as the podcast—so you can follow along in time with the 'cast. | ||
When you click on the "buy now" link to purchase your Age of Innocence Enhanced eBook, you will leave this site and go to PayPal. You will then be directed to a page with instructions for delivery. Remember: the book matches the podcast. Currently, the EeBook includes the first six chapters, loads of links, discussion questions, writing prompts—and is updatable every week.
