New for the 2017 version is interactive elements that readers have to complete to move to the next chapter.

The goal Kickstarter project is to take a book originally written by Scott about 13 years ago and make it a digital adventure. As part of the 2017 celebrations, the author has assembled a team to turn this children’s book into an interactive eBook app with interactive elements at the end of each chapter. Money raised by this project will go towards completion of the interactive games that go along with each chapter of the story.If you’re not familiar with Kickstarter, founded in 2009, it’s an American company that was one of the first global crowdfunding platforms focused on creativity. The goal is to raise $3000 to complete the interactive games that appear at the end of each chapter of the book, as the artwork is already prepared.

You can show your Canadian spirit by supporting the project. All donations of $20 or more will receive a copy of the Canadian Legends Interactive eBook
