The Trilogy Touch series allows children of all ages and their parents the chance to read and play along with their favorite children's stories and animated films on all digital devices.  Children are encouraged to participate and craft their own experiences.  They are seamlessly engaged and having fun while expanding their reading comprehension.

These novel interactive storybooks feature three distinct modes, engaging both parents and children in the interactive experience.  "Touch Tale" is the signature mode a child's interaction and exploration are required to tell the story.  "Read To Me" allows toddlers to listen to the story, focusing on vocabulary building and word recognition.  In "Read Alone," new readers or parents can experience the traditional book.  

"Our Trilogy Touch interactive storybooks are designed to be lean forward experiences, encouraging children to actively explore these storylines on their own," said , co-founder and CEO of Trilogy Studios.  "We want them to reach beyond the words and illustrations on the page and tap into their fertile imaginations where real learning takes place."  

Harold and The Purple Crayon will be followed by two more interactive storybooks this summer:  Universal Pictures Despicable Me and Penguin Books, Lady Bug Girl.   Pole added, "We're excited to be working with these enormously successful properties and look forward to sharing a wide range of interactive experiences on all digital devices."

"With Trilogy Touch we can enhance the young readers book experience by animating stories to life in a way that a child imagines them when reading," said from the App Store or at  http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/harold-and-the-purple-crayon/id450829541?mt=8 .  It will soon be available on the iPhone and Android platforms.
