five little froggies in QR code

by Harris Tobias

A Children's book for tech savvy kids

This little story is told in a language that can only be read by machines. It can be read by human beings with a little help from a QR Code reader. QR readers are freely available on all smart phones as free apps. QR stands for Quick Response and is widely used in advertising. It is a relatively new technology and is fun to explore. So tune up your smart phone and enjoy this little rhyme.

Reviews

[Harris Tobias · Rating 5 out of 5]

Very clever use of QR Codes. It brings children's lit into the 21st century. QR codes become the bridge between the printed page and the Internet. Exciting and original concept. I especially like the page at the end where a reader can hear the text read by a native speaker in six languages.
