In a near future where drought and poverty are the norm, teenage Roya longs for a rich midnight feast so she might forget her worn surroundings, but when she finally stays up for it, she is disappointed to find that wonderful food does not magically appear at midnight. Her parents' attempts to create an exciting evening fall flat. Instead, Roya sees for the first time homeless people gathering on the alley way below, and must ultimately decide whether she will acknowledge the reality of the poverty outside her own kitchen window or else try to retain her childlike obliviousness. |

Jack and the Beanstalk
|
Jack and the Beanstalk blurs the distinction between story and game more than ever before to create a completely new kind of reading experience for children: the app is where on-screen gaming and reading meet. Conceived and created with reading for pleasure at its heart, Jack and the Beanstalk rewards success with more story, and encourages repeat play with endless variety. Readers play games in different rooms of the giant’s castle and collect keys to unlock more of the story, and success – or failure – at collecting the giant’s treasure determines the outcome of the whole story. |
