In their own words
Book Creator
Book Creator is a classroom tool for students and teachers to create books and show learning through text, images, audio and video. Users can record voice, images or video in the app, work together on books in real time, and leave feedback as audio, video or text comments. The product describes more than 130 built-in accessibility features, including speech-to-text, text-to-speech, screen reader support and video captions. Translation can cover text, audio, comments, captions and entire books. Books and libraries can be published, shared by QR code, downloaded as ePub or printed as PDFs. It supports fixed-layout books and imports PDFs and EPUB files created with Book Creator. The free Starter plan costs nothing and includes one library with up to 40 books and unlimited students; a private My Books library can hold 40 more. There is no per-student cost or limit, and no limit on page count or audio and video duration. It runs on Android, iOS, macOS, web and Windows.
