The ADAPT-A-BOOK™  Children’s Series concept was developed by Bart Ezra Plaskoff, a high school teacher who saw the need for more technological integration in order to allow for different learning styles and to convey positive messages and non-threatening learning environments for children and adults alike. The books will not only be available in printed form, but will also be technologically enhanced by containing an Interactive CD-ROM, which incorporates various treatments of the story including: audio (as read and performed by various theatrical and musical talents within the Entertainment Community). It will also have a supporting website and may be made into an animated featurette.

The ADAPT-A-BOOK™  Children’s Series also wishes to address the need of Assistive and Adaptive Technology for those children, who cannot see, hear, are physically challenged or may just simply learn visually. We eventually wish to add enhancements such as: Sign Language and Braille.

Each artist that lends him/herself to a particular project will receive a negotiated percentage of the net royalties made from the project…with an additional 10%, which will be donated to the artist’s choice of charity or cause.

"The Grippity Groo" is the first book in the ADAPT-A-BOOK™  Series. It is a wonderfully colorful children's story written by Bart E. Plaskoff, which addresses a little boy's temper tantrum, and his realization that it is, in fact he who is the real "Grippity Groo".

We currently have two more children’s books, which we are available for artists to consider. The first is called, "On The Moon…It Just Doesn’t Matter", which is about a child in a wheelchair, whose positive outlook on life knows no bounds. The second is about the similarities between humans and trees called, "Tree’s Are Just Like People".
