	<htmltext>And how many of these books are in Spanish? Or French, or Farsi, or what have you? And with pictures?
<br> <br>
I used to work in a small, poor town in the developing world. My community had a library with about 10 linear feet of shelving. All the books were in Spanish, but . . .
<br> <br>
None of them had pictures.<br>
The "local interest" titles were these impenetrable desk-breakers of 19th century poetry by some aristocrat from the big city.<br>
There were only two or three fiction titles. Dante's Inferno counts, right?<br>
<br>
I never once saw a child pick a book off that shelf, not even after an hour's wait while Mom ran an errand. There was nothing there that would appeal to a beginning reader. Hell, given the historical literacy handicaps in the region, those titles would have defeated most of the adults I knew.
<br> <br>
If you want to encourage literacy (in the developing world or elsewhere) you've got to start small. Pictures. Rhymes and silly sounds. It takes years to get most kids up to chapter book readiness. Canterbury Tales ain't where you start!</htmltext>

	<htmltext>You are probably just trolling; but that is completely wrong. One of the main distinguishing features of the XO-1 is its dual mode screen. You can either run with the backlight on, and get color and visibility in the dark, or you can run with the backlight off, and get a high-resolution reflective LCD that is the next best thing to e-ink for reading(along with having LCD level refresh rates and slightly nicer contrast ratio). If you run the backlight at low brightness, you can even get a bit of both, mostly reflective black and white; but with some hints of color.<br> <br>

I have an XO-1, and the screen is frankly the most interesting part for me. The industrial design is very good, for its intended purpose, but I'm not really its intended purpose, so that is a bit of a mixed blessing; but the screen is, for the moment, simply unique among available devices.</htmltext>

	<htmltext>I know that the books are in various languages.  The top list has few in english.  The list also seems to be at many different levels of reading.
<p>
As far as I pictures, this is not such a big issue.  Glossy pictures are important in the third world especially now, because that is what kids and parents expect.  They expect 4 color prints on paper.  They expect Snow White to be the disney drawing.  They expect binding to be neat and pages to cut.  Furthermore the opportunity costs of parents creating such books are high enough that purchasing them are often a better value.  Add this to the fact that the tax base is high enough to support libraries, and one has a formula to support professionally written books.
</p><p>
Assuming that this has to be the case is limited at best.  For younger ages, reading to the child is important, and reading does not mean reading a book.  The story would be one that the parent remembers or create.  This is clearly the way we learn language, by having older persons speak to us.  If one wants the child to be more active, then give the child something to draw with and on.  This is a much more engaging activity than looking at predrawn picture.  Now, once the child starts to read, then obviously accessible reading material is important, but the need for picture books is limited.  In a case like this, where text is free, and the only costs is a printer, for short books one can imagine printing a book and letting the child draw their own pictrures, as one often does in a printed book, even when one is not supposed to.
</p><p>
Obviously I assuming a certain level of ability. In societies where comprehension is important for functionally literacy picture books for all ages do play an important role because they develop a minimal literacy skills in students who otherwise would not have those skills by encouraging reading.  However, I have seen places where just a basic decoding ability is enough, where one does not have to understand the meaning of paragraphs.  In these cases I would argue things like comic books are a luxury.</p></htmltext>

	<htmltext>Dear me, there are a lot of nay-sayers posting here.  I wonder why?  I can't inherently see something terrible about providing a large number of books for the world's poorest, yet the comments here would have me believe that it is hopeless, and everybody has an anecdote about why there's no point in even trying.<br> <br>

so why are the astroturfers out en force for this story?<br> <br>

anyway, i say good on the olpc project for trying to bring knowledge to the poor, the underprivileged, the down-trodden, the economically abused and the politically silenced.  i still hope that we will someday look back on this project and think that it was a major stepping stone in our journey towards human rights, education and dignity for all.</htmltext>

Are there some technical people working on a specification so people can enjoy free books with pictures in free formats?If you want to encourage literacy (in the developing world or elsewhere) you've got to start small.I sense you mean well, but I suggest you'd do better to convince people to help you improve the state of e-books by asking for assistance instead of telling people in what order they should donate their time to address the under-served.
People need all sorts of things simultaneously, not some things in a particular order.I was not a child who wanted "picture books", I found the pictures undermined my imagination.
I did a far better job casting, clothing, and set dressing the story in my head than any illustrator.
I imagine there are other children out there who don't want to be prejudiced about how things looked, just as I imagine there are kids who want pictures to go enhance the reading.
We'll get to the point where more people's literary needs are met in freedom.
Clearly things are heading in the right direction and with your help and experience in what you believe people want, I'm sure we'll get there faster.
