The Dayton Metro Library has something similar called BookFlix. If you go to their kids page at http://kids.daytonmetrolibrary.org/ and click on the button marked “Watch, Read & Learn… BookFLIX” there are pairs of classic video storybooks from Weston Woods and related nonfiction eBooks from Scholastic that kids can watch, read or listen to.
