The Froobles Enhanced Audio eBooks with Celebrity Narration released on iTunes

More Information

Featuring the vocal talents of Johnny Vaughan, Denise Van Outen, Edith Bowman and Reggie Yates, four read-along titles from the new positive attitude character series were released on iTunes today.

Dan Graham, Editorial Director, said, ʻThe read-along enhanced audio eBooks add a new dimension to The Froobles brand and will make perfect additions to childrenʼs eBook libraries this Christmas. The strong vocal performances of Johnny Vaughan, Denise Van Outen, Edith Bowman and Reggie Yates perfectly convey the charactersʼ distinct personalities and add great humour to the titles.ʼ

As part of a marketing drive to tempt fans of the printed copies to download the eBooks, ʻChloe Carrot and the greedy witchʼ, ʻOrlando Orange and the big, scary bearʼ, ʻLittle Jack Potato and the big surpriseʼ, and ʻTessa Tomato and the rainforest rainbowʼ will be available, for a limited time, at a special promotional price of £1.49.

The Froobles brand launched with 12 printed titles in September and was followed with eBooks in October. iPhone, iPad and iTouch Apps are due to be released on iTunes in December. An enhanced audio eBook edition of ʻChloe Carrot and the greedy witchʼ, with narration by Denise Van Outen, is pre-installed on the new Kobo Vox since its launch in WHSmith last week.

The Froobles are little characters learning big lessons about growing up. Scenes created by playgroup children provide The Froobles with an ever-changing world in which they have fun adventures while learning valuable lessons along the way.
