We purchased our eBooks from two different companies; ABDO and Capstone. The ABDO

books are simply EBooks, meaning they are not interactive and do not have the capability to

read aloud to the students. The Capstone books are mainly interactive and will read aloud to

the students. There is an audio off option if desired.

This title is an ABDO book. I can

find that information here.

To begin to read an ABDO eBook,

you need to click on ‘Click here

to access’

If you happen to get this

Security Warning, please click

‘NO’.

AR information is here.
