Story Bird – Big books
Storybird is full of Big Books that you can use on your interactive whiteboard. All of the books are free because they are created by their readers. You could even have a go at creating your own class big books and sharing them with each other. Good fun!
“Storybirds are short, visual
stories that you make with
family and friends to share
and (soon) print.”
