We have jointly developed the Japanese version of the children’s Digital Ehon app “What Would You Do If You Couldn’t Wake Up?” with Adarna House (Adarna House Digital) in the Philippines and have begun offering it to users in Japan.
"What If I Can't Wake Up?" is a Filipino Digital Ehon loved by children around the world. Maya-chan is worried about whether she'll be able to wake up early in the morning.
Together, Maya-chan and her mom come up with lots of fun ideas for how to wake up early.
The print picture book won the Filipino Readers’ Choice Awards (2012), and the Digital Ehon was a finalist in the 4th Digital Ehon Awards.
Tap on an illustration, and—lo and behold!—sounds play or the picture comes to life. You can also record your own voice to read the story aloud. These interactive features, unique to digital media, are a must-see.
