When I read fiction that is non-work related, I prefer a more straightforward reading experience. But with teaching, the more interactive iPad has been so helpful to me.

I have bought exactly one book &#8216;app&#8217; in my life, and following the recent iPad release of said app, will never do so again. There are two reasons.
