BookFlix Added to MeL

Scholastic's BookFlix has now joined the other excellent early literacy eResources available to all Michigan residents from the Michigan eLibrary (MeL). BookFlix is an online literacy resource that pairs classic video storybooks from Weston Woods with related nonfiction from Children’s Press and other trusted Scholastic sources.

All the fiction/nonfiction pairs in BookFlix are categorized according to nine themes: Animals and Nature; Earth and Sky; Family and Community; People and Places; Music and Rhyme; ABC’s and 1, 2, 3’s; Adventure; Imagination; and Celebrations. 

Books are paired - a fiction and nonfiction book. The Read Along option 
displays the audio portion of the story, with word-by-word highlighting, as it plays. The audio is a real person reading the book, and Spanish versions are available. The read-along option can be turned off, too.
