ESL Comics Goes Interactive

I'm branching out and creating an interactive PDF of ESLComics. With an interactive PDF, readers can not just read comics, but play them also. Interactive PDFs allow you to click on page, type, answer questions, and get feedback. This means games and puzzles. That help you learn English. I am currently seeking funds to make this happen. To learn more and get interactive comics in your ESL classroom, check out this site. I can use all of the support I can get.  Support ESL Interactive Comics

P.S. Have you seen ESLComics.com? If not, you're missing cartoons that are not here on this blog.

ESL Comics has a New Website and a New Look

Please visit my new site eslcomics.com.  It has more of my homemade cartoons (I hope my talents have improved.) and a new interactive feature.  Readers can get translations in up to ten different languages, something not possible on the blog. I will resume creating lesson material for the blog, so teachers can find topics for classroom use.
It's my hope that language learners and teachers find the blog and the website usefull as well as entertaining.

Sincerely,
