A mother discovers NLB's ebook portal for children's stories

My FIJ (Friend in Japan) alerted me to a blog post which was from a friend of hers. Her friend discovered something called TumbleBooks, part of the digital resources subscribed by NLB for offsite access. I submitted the post and it's Tomorrowed.

To access TumbleBooks, go to www.nlb.gov.sg --> eBooks (scroll down to TumbleBook Library).

You need to login to the website before access is granted. Or you'll be prompted to register (for free). Note: The TumbleBooks Library site will open in a new window and you might need to enable the popups.

Worth checking it out, 'cos you can hear stories being read online. Don't just take my word for it. At least one mother liked it.

    You can add another mother to your tally! I somehow found myself on your blog, read this post, linked to the NLB site, and absolutely LOVED it!
