This course is amazing. I didnt know you could make anything other than a PowerPoint presentation with PowerPoint but due to this course now I can write my own childrens book that is animated and reads to my daughter!! My daughter loved reading a story all about her on her birthday! I can't always be there every bedtime because I am a shift worker but now I can still participate as the book I wrote reads with Mummy's (my) voice. I cant rate this course highly enough, I am usully not that great with computers but the instructor explained it all very clearly, when i finished and showed my daughter it was such a sense of accomplishment. I cant wait to make some different books just like the instructor showed maybe i will make find an object book or a push and pull book i could even hide a picture of my daughter in the scene, the possibilities are endless. I am not all that great with drawing either but the instructor showed some great ideas to illustrate my book I dont even have to draw if I dont want to.
