The Hiboo project aims at giving young people a new reading experience through new digital and mobile devices.
The challenge is to stimulate the imagination and the desire to read among teenagers
and to offer them a new way of reading which is more fun and more exciting but still adapted to their habits and their digital and social needs.
Books free of copyrights available on the application will be selected according to strict editorial guidelines. Each book will be processed and enhanced in such a way that a reader of Hiboo books will find a new innovative way of reading, with many original activities and features. Reading will be a real adventure through books.
