A few days ago author Dustin Ross wrote to let me know that his new book,Billy The Goat Helps His Father, had just been published.  I happen to love children's literature and try to stay up-to-date with new entries in the field, so I downloaded a copy.I particularly  like the artwork inBilly The Goat Helps His Father.  it is bright, engaging, well detailed and, best of all, Dustin managed to make it display correctly on an iPad.  (All too often Kindles intended as children's storybooks display two illustrations per page instead of just one when viewed on an iPad.)While I did find the dialogue a teeny bit stilted in spots, the book has a great storyline - Billy goes to work with Dad.  The book is suitable as a "read together" for ages three+.  The reading level is in the grade 3-4 range.Grandma's $0.02 -Billy The Goat Helps His Fatheris a nice addition to a collection of children's literature formatted for a Kindle or iPad.  Recommended
