Okenko Books Releases New Android App - Okenko Books Reader, Version 1.0

Children’s book publisher Okenko Books now offers picture books for parents who are on the go. Brand new children’s books are delivered to Android phones every two weeks, providing entertainment and education for children and their parents alike.

San Mateo, CA, September 23, 2010 --(PR.com)-- There’s a new app for parents and children on the smart phone scene. Android phone users can download the free Okenko Books Reader app in the Android Market, and soon iPhone, iPad, and iPod Touch users will also have access to this service.

The app comes with one free story, which is “Lindy Lee Loves Pink” by Jo S. Kittinger and Sonya Hallett. Additional titles coming soon include a rhyming story titled “David Drew Likes Blue” and a hilarious book called “Sip’n’Cup Go On Vacation.”

Those new stories and more are available through the Okenko Books subscription service, which is based on micro-payments through PayPal. Under the subscription service, a new children’s book is downloaded to the device every two weeks. A subscription can have up to five devices registered, and the stories will stay in the Okenko Books app so parents can access them offline and even after their subscription ends.

The aim of Okenko Books is to provide children and parents with quality picture books that entertain and inspire, and the publisher strives to remain true to the book medium, even as that medium is transferred to a high-tech gadget like the smart phone.

Co-founder Jitka Adeleke says, “Our intention is to stay as close to the book medium as possible, so we do not offer any distracting interactive features and games. We keep things simple: just text and pictures. Our book-apps must be read, either by a budding reader, parent, older sibling or friend.”

The books offered through the Okenko Books subscription service are tailored for kids 4-8 years old and they are unique, and they cannot be found anywhere else. The publisher produces all-new books that have never been released in any other format, written by both, published and promising first time authors and illustrated by talented illustrators from all over the world.
