Let's celebrate black history month with BookFlix!
BookFlix is a unique tool that pairs fiction and nonfiction eBooks for PreK through 3rd grade children. BookFlix thematically pairs fiction and nonfiction titles, designed to bridge learning-to-read and reading-to-learn programs. For instance, BookFlix might pair an animated storybook that will introduce early learners to the delights of reading while sparking curiosity, creating a natural springboard into the paired nonfiction text for deeper discovery.
