http://www.books.google.com is a web site that allows you to open any book on their site and read a few pages of the book, before you purchase the book. How is this helpful and unique in its own modern technical way? You open the site and search for books, the covers are on the screen, the full information is beside the book such as cost and the title, author, when it was published. The site pages are colorful and easy to read and understand. The simple steps the site offers speak for itself, as the steps are easy enough for a child to understand, as you search for books you would like to open pages of and examine before you purchase the book. 1. Helps people who love to read make better choices about buying reading material. 2. Eliminates bad decisions to let a underage child read something that is filled with profanity. 3.
