An Eddie for Lerner Interactive Books

I am pleased to announce that Lerner Interactive Books has received a 2012 Eddie Award! Lerner iBooks won in the category of Early Elementary Interactive Book Websites. We would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge our worthy peers, and give thanks to our families for all of their support (hi mom!) and, of course, the Academy.

If you’d like to see what all the buzz is about, head over to www.lernerbooks.com/ibooks for a brief iBook video. We’ve got some powerful new features for our iBooks that I’m keeping under wraps for now, but here’s a little something to tide you over: we’re adding 12 new children’s trade books for Spring 2013!

Now, for what you’ve all been waiting for… I present a few of this week’s best links from the information super-highway (Gangnam-free). Make sure to check out the Hexaflexagon video below, it’s pretty neat.

•  The CD is 30 years old [What Hi-Fi]
• Why do I think this imgur designed to “make perfectionists suffer”might work on some of our librarian friends?
• Hopkins Doctors Grow New Ear On Woman’s Arm [CBS Baltimore]
• Two Cats in a Frying Pan
• Star Wars meets Rushmore meets Breakfast Club: Jedi High (a student film project) [via BoingBoing]
