When will there be a prize for enhanced children's ebooks? This is not a commercial posting as the book I am recommending is free. It's for the iPad only. This ebook could easily become the very first 'all-time classic' children's ebook. From your iPad go to: http://itunes.apple.com/us/book/box-head-man-enhanced-version/id399459860?mt=11
