Children’s ebook subscription platform FarFaria exhibited at this year’s BookExpo event to demonstrate the powerful effects of their product, but also to ensure that attendees know about the company’s pro-teacher initiative. As of last week, FarFaria instituted a summer giveaway which will offer 10,000 teachers a free one-year subscription to their service, allowing those teachers to use the platform’s content in their classrooms.
FarFaria’s CEO and co-founder Ajay Godhwani spoke to Good e-Reader about the platform and the partnerships they have with publishers like Orca Books–along with a Big Five publisher who will be named in an announcement this week–as well as offered a guided tour through how young children interact with their texts.
“When you do picture books and you really want to make them look beautiful in the product, you move a little bit slower. We’re excited about these books, which are leveled-readers. We want to make sure that kids who navigate through our app can find something appropriate for them.”
FarFaria operates on both iPad and Android devices now, and still brings readers in through an engaging map of the realm that lets the readers find content from various genres or age appropriate designations.
Good e-Reader is proud to help FarFaria conduct a giveaway of their service, so three lucky readers will have the chance to enjoy the children’s book subscription service. Simply share this article on Facebook or Twitter in order to be entered in a drawing for the codes.
