Books beyond words
Book Creator is much more than a word processor. Combine text, images, audio, and video to create digital books that teachers and students will be proud of.

Last summer we were researching ways to incorporate digital interactive notebooks into our literacy blocks. All of our research kept pointing us back to Book Creator!
How does Book Creator improve outcomes in literacy?
The art of creating a digital book allows students to consider the whole writing process.
They can type or dictate text right onto the page. They can practice fluency by recording themselves reading what they have written. They can check for comprehension by having their books read back to them.
You can expect improvements such as:
- Better organisation and connection of ideas
- Increased use of academic vocabulary
- Increased use of clarifying details and analogies
Book Creator's 'Read to Me' mode can automatically read the text on the page (in multiple languages). You can choose to highlight the words as they are read.
Case studies
Real-life stories from classrooms across the worldUsing Book Creator for Writing Workshop
“Some students have great ideas but are poor writers, Book Creator allows them to participate in a writer’s workshop on an even footing with other students. The great writers can REALLY flourish as they communicate their ideas in a variety of media.”
Jenny Mitchell, Middle School Teacher
Hosting a modern ‘book tasting’ with Book Creator
“One of the challenges of a Teacher-Librarian can be how to engage reluctant readers in short library periods. Students who are struggling with literacy can be hesitant to choose books, read for extended periods of time, or even enter the library space. Therefore, I try to find creative ways to inspire students and encourage a love of reading.”
Mira Campbell, Teacher-Librarian
"When kids have a global audience, they want their work to be good. When the audience is just the teacher, they want it to be good enough."
