The Sherlock Holmes Experience
We’re pleased to announce the release of our newest new title: The Sherlock Holmes Experience: A Vook Double Feature. The vook enhances two Arthur Conan Doyle classic short stories—“The Man with the Twisted Lip” and “The Adventure of the Speckled Band”—with videos that provide historical perspective and annotation from academics and experts. Vook worked closely with the Sherlock Holmes Society of London to create a historically accurate, scholarly video enhancement of the classic stories to engage, inspire and connect new and old readers to the world of Sherlock Holmes.
The Sherlock Holmes Experience is the first in our new Vook Enhanced Classics education series, which is designed to motivate young readers to engage with classic works of literature. With the vook, students reading the Holmes stories will have a deeper comprehension of the narrative through video and interactivity, and they’ll learn more about life in the late 19th century.
FREE OFFER FOR EDUCATORS
As part of this international launch, Vook is thrilled to present a special offer of a free copy of the Sherlock Holmes vook to every educator at an accredited public and private school as well as every public library in the United States and United Kingdom. If you are an educator and interested in learning more about this opportunity please visit this page to receive your free copy of the vook for your students.
The Sherlock Holmes Experience: A Vook Double Feature is available as a Web based vook and as an iphone app—both for only $2.99.
