Canadian families can now fill their home libraries with Internet linked books, perfectly blending technology with the pure joy of snuggling up with a good book.

Usborne Publishing has revolutionized the children’s publishing industry, leading the way by incorporating relevant, child-safe Internet links right into their already engaging and information packed books. Carol Cooper (supervisor, Calgary AB) points out: "Ask any parent how easy it is to search the Internet for information for their children's homework projects and you’ll be met with grimaces and groans. Using the links the reader can pursue their enthusiasms or research a homework project, including finding vivid and appropriate images for illustrating their work. Web sites do change from time to time, so the sites in the book will be regularly reviewed by Usborne researchers. You will find up-to-date direct links to these or alternative sites by going to the Usborne Quicklinks site."
